And I thought I\'d seen everything...
 

I was finishing up my third 1v1 demo game (my Kailasa vs AI Pangaea), and in one battle I spotted a Pang Black Harpy who'd made the Hall of Fame with... wait for it...

Heroic Stupidity.

+ to Morale and Magic Resistance, - to Leadership, one other change that I'm not remembering just now.
But c'mon now, it's Heroic Stupidity ! How can you not love this? These developers thought of everything! I would have been laughing like crazy for a good five minutes, but it was past midnight... Sorry, no screenshot.

LOL, that is great. I haven't got that one on a commander yet (Followers of my pretenders are naturally of high intelligence). I have seen "Unequaled Obesity" and "Third Eye", both of which I thought were pretty interesting.

argh I remember when my troop ferrying commander got heroic stupidity. "Hmm... I thought dom III increased the leadership cap?" was my quote. =P

Re: And I thought I\'d seen everything...
 

My keen badger senses smell an inconsistency !

Low inteligence typically lowers magic resistance ! Check out Deep Ones, various animals.
Can someone explain ?

Re: And I thought I\'d seen everything...
 

Heroic stupidity and low intelligence is not the same. Anyone can be unintelligent but only a hero can have that famous stupidity that helps him when he's in trouble.

I'm happy someone finally found right name for courage.

heh... I had a commander get disease at roughly the same time he made hall of fame for unequalled obsesity

Over time he stayed in hall of fame, with the hp gain outpacing his ever worsening disease... but afflictions continued to mount on him, losing limbs and so forth, gradually growing becoming a huge leprously diseased blob

ahahhah thats great

Re: And I thought I\'d seen everything...
 

What type of commander was it? Giving him boots of the behemothwould be funny if hes size 3+, a huge, limbless blob of flesh (or some other substance) rolling over enemy armies http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/laugh.gif

Oh, that's just beautiful, I like seeing Heroic abilities and afflictions cancelling like that. On the other hand, it's also kind-a disturbing...
