Well you have fun with your 30hp Lifeless Undead SC. I am sure you'll get very far with that.

I'm sorry I assumed we were talking about serious play, with the intent to win. Someone who is doing a wonky build for "fun" is not going to be nearly so dangerous with LA Ermor, and so should not be so fearsome.

I was just trying to illustrate how easy it is to get discouraged by Ermor when you first start MP. You don't care, that's fine. Have fun pissing and moaning about the whole thing, it seems to be working out great.

Alright, I think this thread has been derailed enough. I believe it best for everyone concerned that we simply drop it and keep any remaining discussion in this thread limited to topics directly pertaining to this game and leave any hypothetical debate for the general forum.

That being said, any word on what map we're going for? I'd prefer something with at least some water/mountains as I find that having some choke points on the map makes the game more interesting.

According to the llamaserver, its Cradle and we're waiting for pretenders. I just uploaded mine now.

EDIT: Hmm - just saw that it says "Mods: none" ???

I could not have said it any better than Fakeymcfake, so I will simply reiterate:

Yes. When equipped and armed with some spells he will do just fine. Maybe not the best SC that can be built to challenge other SC's, but certainly not the worst. It really comes down to game mechanics and a bit of luck. Die rolls and such. It's actually pretty complex.

I'd be more than willing to champion the notion of a lich as being a viable SC and build for Ermor. A build which also fits all your criteria for what Ermor needs in your opinion from a pretender.

I just wanted to show to you in the easiest way possible, how both your statements are false. These were:

1) Only a "noob" as you refer to them, would play Ermor with an SC as a pretender.

2) A lich is not an SC.

But, I guess your perception of what is "serious" play prohibits this.

I know better. So, I don't care for that particular example you give. I don't believe I've been whiny about the issue. Depends if you think that stating an opinion is whining. Some people do that. Also, that would mean you've been quite vocal.

Frankly, all I did in my last post was prove how you made two invalid statements. And I agreed to argue the case for an SC as being a valid choice of pretender for Ermor - indirecly.

Good luck to you too.
