Default Re: List of Spells?

I know SP games don't give a valid image of what could be the actual strenght of some tactic - one could be easily counterable but the AI just doesn't know it.

But, just to say, in my last SP large map all nations game the Poison Golem Idro was at the top of the Hall of Fame with some thousands of kills, having taken 3 or 4 nations all by himself with the obvious exception of the castles.

He just fell attacking more than a thousand Marverni chaff army - when the enemy was already routed, he died for turn limit. - (Now NTJedi if you are reading, don't gloat ^_^ I still like this mechanic as it is. I would just have needed more firepower, period. Somewhat annoying maybe but surely fair)

@ vfb,

ah right. Yes, I now see you're true. Thanks for clarification.
Btw, can I ask you another thing? In another thread (a guide of you) you suggested me to place a Poison Golem outside the enemy castle to have him healed - I have yet to try - I'm not even at home now so I can't too - but does it really work? I think being the Poison Golem lifeless has some role in it

If there is a lab in the castle and you siege the castle with a 'never heals' magic being, like a Gargoyle, then your unit will be healed. I don't mean afflictions get healed, just your HP.

But actually, Poison Golems don't have this tag, I thought they did. So there's no need to worry about healing them after combat, their HP comes back all by itself.

Now I've got to go find that other thread!
