26th july
* 2 Mictlan MA heroes.
* Mictlan MA sky priest.
* New hydra regen change.
* Hero dependent events.
* Maenad new sprite.

That's... that's... it promises SO much...

> * Hero dependent events.

This one will probably go unnoticed

I added a couple of events that can only appear if a given hero is in the province of the event. So it is rather unlikely you will ever see them. On the other hand, when you do you will like it

It didn't take too long to make them, and it was quite fun, but as I said it will probably not affect most games.

Edit: Oops, posted as my brother.

I don't think they will be quite that rare. Everyone won't see them in every game, but with this many people playing, I'd say it won't take more than a week after the patch when we'll have one of these reported. . Anyone playing the game for a long time will have seen all the events that his scales allow for. People only discover "new" events once they change the scales they are used to.

That sounds neat. You might open a floodgate of suggestions for like events.

You could probably create some generic ones also. Such as, the one that has "volunteers" pop up. I actually wouldnt mind that one much if it happened where my hero was who can usually add them to his army with no problem. And it would be thematic "When people heard of the mighty hero visiting them then many rushed to join his army." Actually just a slight increase in lucky events at the province of heroes would cool.

Generics can't be made this way, since the restriction is on a specific monster number. Thus there has to be one such event for the hero Cu CHulainn, and another for the hero Tjatse.

> Actually just a slight increase in lucky events at the province of heroes would cool.

These events will not increase the number of lucky events. They appear as any other event, after a lucky event has been determined.

Could you just give out a little spoiler. Do any of the hero lucky events depend on a misfortune scale?

Cause if they don't, you and me will either be changing our normal scales for a while or not seeing any.

So, keeping the two Sauromatian heroes, Sköge and Kirke, in different provinces just in case they won't act as their flavour test suggests and kill each other might pay off after all... ...after the next patch?

@atul: Actually, that would work! Nice idea!
Atm only a Delgnat event (wife of skögu).

@LP: not that I can remember. And the juggernaut event only needs a juggernaut and a militia to crush

Edit: Now Skögu can eat Kirke! Keep them apart

I hope hero events are at least max probability, so they get checked for often?
