Default Re: are stealth units targeted by flames from afar..?

AFAICT Stealth units are ummune to any spell or remote summons or assasination attempts, IF they are "hidden" or
sneaking". Any other command would "unhide" stealthy unit, and he can be targeted.

oh thnx .

does that mean that stealth units are the "perfect" mules for equipment because noone can target them via any damage spell like the flames from afar ?

if yes i think this is a bad solution and perhaps worth considering altered in 2.13 [img]/threads/images/Graemlins/crazy.gif[/img]

Yes, as long as you keep them hidden.

BTW when stealthy units are being build, they considered *not* to be "hidden" the first turn they build, so enemy can spot them. This fact can also be used to your advantage, like when you are building a castle with one of your scout next to the border with your enemy: if you produce 5 more scouts in other provinces along your border, they all would look the same to your enemy(meaning they will all be visible), so he will not know at which province he need to strike before castle is finished.
