Re: National Anthems/ or bands

I'm way behind on the heavy metal knowledge - the only one I can think of is Wheels Of Steel by Saxon, for Iron Faith Ulm.

Enya is a good suggestion - maybe a Clannad album for LoT?

Re: Poll: morale and routing

Hmm. Down to two stars this morning. What's going on?? I thought it was like the ranks, in that they accumulated over time or something, but obviously not. Is somebody rating my Posts somewhere?

Re: Dammit

Thanks v much for the response - I'm clear on the current design. First of all, I was never recommending that any special or different rules be applied to SCs, for the very reason that you give -...

Re: Dammit

Hello Cainehill - nice essay. I think you undervalue the power of language though. I don't think my one-line post was easily interpreted "as sarcasm or bitterness", unless I seriously overestimated...

Re: Poll: morale and routing

Just one thing is confusing me, which is what Cainehill said about battlefield summons. I thought when phantasmal warriors, or false horrors or whatever - when they got killed, the mage just carried...

Re: Dammit

Oops, sorry, replied too quickly. Promise I won't respond to the next one. Arryn is a she, btw.



Thanks for bring that back to the foreground. I played my first few games with standard troops...

You have an interesting tendency to try to score points by twisting what other people write. I never said you were stupid because you disagree with me. I said you were stupid because you gave a...

Re: Poll: morale and routing

If only that were the case. I've seen a lot of undamaged morale 30 ice devils rout when a single PD archer gets killed - whatever the negative modifier for watching your comrades die is, it can't be...

Re: Poll: morale and routing

I'm getting quite frustrated here - you are just not getting the point. For a 10hp, 10 morale human commander yes, I agree with you, he won't hang around when all his men are killed. He will fail a...

Blimey Arryn, don't you have a sense of humour? Or are you just so stupid that you need everything spelt out with an icon?

Re: Poll: morale and routing

Surely battlemages would be almost the least affected? If something can rout a battlemage's escort, wouldn't the mage fail a morale check? They tend to have much lower morale than SCs. If they...

Re: Banishment vs Dust to Dust -- which do you prefer?

I prefer Banishment against hordes, because the hordes generally have fairly low MR and low hp, and also because you need to keep casting it over and over (so fatigue would suck). I've had normal...

Re: Calling God Back

Like preaching him out. If he's only got that one province left, why haven't you built temples in every adjacent province and put 20 priests on "preach" in the fortress province itself?

Not if your mages have morale 10 and your SCs have morale 30, which is what I tend to find is the case ....

Re: Dammit

No I'm sorry, you shouldn't have to send your commanders berserk just to avoid them fleeing when the chaff is killed. I'm very upset that even two SCs will flee when a chaff regiment is routed.

Re: Dammit

Doh! I can't believe I've been so stupid - there's an easy solution to the chaff problem: take the SCs in *pairs*! Take a 3rd commander with the chaff - all the chaff dies, 3rd commander routs or...

Re: Dammit

No, he said fatigued *and* gets hit - most combat spellcasters go to some lengths to avoid being hit, so it would be consistent.

His other point was very good too - a high morale, non-berserk SC...

Yeah but they're using lots of tough troops - I'm the one with wimpy archers and SCs! Maximum suckage!

Re: Dammit

Yeah but they only go berserk if wounded.

I've just discovered that this idiocy applies to PD as well: if the PD rout, the SCs go with them. This is really really really annoying, because it...

Re: AI \"cheating\": Permanent omniscienct Scrying??
