Give him new items, maybe?

Works with Death-boosting items and undead armies, too, AFAIK.

Taking away his items doesn't work? Huh. The one time I did it, it was by accident, and I thought it was probably because I put his items in the lab. Maybe if you drop items, or transfer them to other commanders directly (not via the lab)?

It doesn't work. Just tested it.

Edit: It doesn't work for mundane units either. Must have been changed with a patch.

[Bwaha]

Confirmed, Falkor you are correct, I looked at the patch and it doesn't say anything about this. I know that I have used this trick before the last patch. And it worked.

If you openly talk about exploits on the forum, they will be banned in future patches...

As many so called exploits, are players favourite tricks, best to say nothing.

[Bwaha]

I hope not, I feel that these tricks are fun, thats why I started this thread. I like this game just as it is.

Maybe the title of the thread could be changed to "Tricks of the Trade".

Of course, some little tricky things add to the quirkiness of the game, and are just fun and interesting tactics. But some things, like the inflated Leader limit trick, maybe they should be banned, as they are just blatant exploitation of what really is a bug, as opposed to just "doing something not directly intended".

*makes plans to reformulate the buglist in an exploit fashion*

I like the title, I think the multiple meanings inferred as funny. Although I will change it if you people want to.
