Lanka: unit stats, comments and tips

TwoBits · #1 February 21st, 2007, 12:09 PM

Hmm, no action here recently, so I'll ask another question:

What should be done with Lanka's national hero? I forget the name, but the 4-armed fallen angle thingy with blood-3.

Seems like 4 deadly weapons in 4 flailing hands might be nice, but the low HP (only 28?) seems to rule out any real SCing. You'd get more 4-armed fun out of GoRing those size-6 national blood summons. All I seem to do is use it as a blood hunter. A fairly good one, to be sure, but seems kind of a waste.

Does Lanka have another hero? This is the only one I've ever seen.

cat charm increases chance of seduction on women, bear charm on men, I think.

I dunno about GoRing blood summons, but the mandaha is hands down the best non-unique SC chassis in EA.

Demons are immune to disease. I've put fever fetishes on them and they don't lose hp.

I don't, it certainly didn't in Dom2.

well the whole gender thing was a non-issue in dom 2, as there were no male seducers (I don't know if dom 3 has them or not, but it makes the distinction that you can't seduce the same gender - were as in dom 2 it was said women simply could not be seduced...)

I know cat charm was supposed to make women prettier, (thus increasing the succubus' chance of seduction.) where as the bear charm could give her a beard. (the only other seducer being the demon lord who had some other command besides seduce)

maybe I am just misinterpreting flavor text, but i didn't just make that up, I read it somewhere. (for dom 2)
