Default Re: Comparison of Knights

Yes, forgot about Machaka spiders (since they dont look like horsies), but I shouldnt have.

I have never played (for or against) Ermor seriously, so I dont know what those knights can do.

I also agree with the general gist of Lintman, and Mlepinski. Please note that I *did* mention in my original post that these units must all be seen in what I called their "context" of their nation, and that a unit-for-unit comparison will often be misleading. I didnt want to say: "Hey, the This is better than the That: nerf!" It would be foolish, in my opinon, to suggest, for example, that Ulmish Infantries are way to strong for their price compared with others (since they *must* be tougher physically than most other infantries).

Nevertheless....

It seems that the Red Guard of Tien Chi doesnt really have much going for it, even in its context, which compares to Vans, whereas both the Red Guard and the Vans could be said to have similar roles.

I feel that my question regarding Marignon's Chalice Knights has been answered duly. Thanks!

best to all

Default Re: Comparison of Knights

One knight-like units has been forgotten, even if it's not actually cavalry. I present to you: Niefel Giant

code:
HP   66
Stre 26 (in cold-3)
Prot 20 (in cold-3, 18 in cold-2)
Att 14 (in cold-3)
Def 14 (-||-)
Mor 14
MR 15
Enc 4
Move 3/17

cost 150/40
sacred, chill, susp. fire, cold immune

Use with wolven winter, and preferably w-9 bless. Dam-33 attack really shines with 50% quickness

Nature bless could also be devastating, 7 hp regen foreveryone isn't shabby.
