Default Re: Unit Spreadsheet

honestly, sunray, i don't know about the independents stats, as to whether or not they changed. I like the Pretenders stuff too....hell, i like all of it.

I would like to see EVERYTHING in one huge file, divided up by pages or whatever it is. All of it together makes it easier for me it seems to look at and "study". Only problem, I am not good at doing that kind of stuff....how do you guys go through and find all the stats for each and every unit???

Creating a view game isnt hard using the commands for the .map files. If you have any kindof programming language, even a free basic, you can do it. Might even be able to do it in something like Word (isnt that semi-scriptable?)
for x = 1 to 1010
print "#commander "+x
next x

That does OK for me to find 1 unit for something. Special pretender not usually offered, a unit I want to snag the image of for a mod, looking at heroes or summons, compare stats.

Do the lists flag each unit for land or water, troop or commander? Thats where a list would be handy for me. Now that #terrain is part of the maps I would like to make the random generators smarter. Not put drowning units in the water and water-breathers on land.

More importantly, the HI is probably backed by crossbows How would the giant fare against 2 HI and 2 crossbows at the same time ?
1) It's all simultaneous, and everything is considered in striking range of everything else. So the Jotun kills 4 HI easily while all 4 strike him each round.

2) Ranged weapons are not modeled But they aren't really better against Jotuns than indy HI.
