Are you calling the Eye Shield a "Whine Shield" now?

Or is that Vine Shield also?

No offense intended to anyone who may not be able to read this post due to eyeloss. <3

Lawful good LA Arcos. will continue to honor its treaties with EA Ulm, and will not join the dog pile. We are a nation of law and order.

Ea Ulm is down?! Heads shall roll for this offense! We never even got to see our early cousins! Oh, cruel world!

Wine, vine, who even hears the difference when spoken out. But whining about eye shields has grown loud, it is perhaps time for astral nations to research Mind Hunt and start offering far-slaying services.

On totally different note, LA Arcoscephale really should start to honor its treaties and stop pushing dominion with unnecessarily numerous temples built unannounced near its borders.

Did the Eye Shield get tweaked at some point by the devs? It's always been nice, but in this game it seems to tear eyeballs out at a distance. My opponent is using them, and very nearly every unit that attacks a commander with one, gets completely blinded. I don't remember it being that powerful.

LA Arcos is not "pushing" is dominion. However it finds itself surrounded by nations with up to 3 misf, and death dominion, and in fact does not have 1 neighbor with "good scales."

Therefore LA Arcos wants to make sure its own lands do not have the "bad scales of its neighbors pushed onto them."

When you have built temples straight at the border without any visible reasons apart from dominion spread, that is "push". Had you had problems with my dominion you could've said so and thus we could have agreed on something. As things stand you acted on your own and as a result unfavourable dominion (cold 1 on summertime? Brr) is already on our lands.

Don't know about the eye shield upgrade though. A bit surprising if it's that effective, isn't there be some att vs def check going on with it?

I don't know about the eye shield, I have used it couple times before and found it extremely not effective. Like 20-40 enemy hits to make him lose one eye.

I'm going by pure guess here but it might have something to do with the defence stat. I.e. you either have to hit the shield or miss the target to be affected. That way the Eye Shield wouldn't be much good for Prot-thugs but better for Def-concentrating ones.

Or the other way around.

Be thankful you do not have cold dominion in your capital!

And a Blue flag flying over it.
