[quote who="joeball123" reply="7" id="3403087"]The Lethal traits and the Executioner traits are cumulative. At Lethal III, you have +12 physical attack, not the +5 listed on the trait - you get +(3 + 4 + 5) from having Lethal I + II + III; same goes for Executioner and every other set of traits available. I certainly agree that Lethal is more useful than Executioner, but you're underselling Lethal here.[/quote] Yep my bad, was a late night when I posted that. I'm merging

Also, I would be interested in any feedback on these ability ideas..... 1) Sneak Attack (or similar name) Would autocast at the start of tactical battle and do damage against against a random target (before anyone moves). No idea how much damage exactly. Possibly it could also knock the victim prone and/or stun them. Most likely it could be handled as multiple abilities... so a trait to unlock the ability, then one or two subsequent abilities to make it mor

Random thoughts on the Assassin Path in Fallen Enchantress Elemental Forums

Hi all, I am currently reworking the Assassin Path as I think it's rather boring and probably the weakest of the Paths. Just throwing some thoughts up here if anyone is interested in adding their own comments and/or ideas. Now my disclaimer is that i've only had a brief play through with the Assassin. But having said that.... The Executioner abilities seem rather underwhelming.... only useful against champions which is not all that often. And

Looking for a writer to contribute to my mods in LH Modding Elemental Forums

Hi all, Probably a bit of a longshot.... but if anyone is interested, i'm on the lookout for someone with decent "writing" skills who might be interested in fleshing out some of the descriptive stuff in my mods. I've created the Demons and Wizards summoning mod ( https://forums.elementalgame.com/446891/page/5/#3401844 ), the latest version has extra spell books, various new monsters and 25 new champions.

Reply to Modding questions/help thread in LH Modding Elemental Forums

The ideal thing would be if there was a way to set a unitstat when units are on a specific terrain... so if they are in a forest they have Unitstat_BG_InForest = 1. That would be awesome, but not achievable me thinks.

City stuff would be better than nothing but was really hoping to find something that works in hills, forest etc. I've just been searching the files now but can't find anything that seems like it only works in certain terrain :-(

Being lazy here because I haven't looked into it, but does anyone happen to know if it's possible to have modifiers apply depending on terrain, for example +3 attack when the battle is in a forest tile? +5 Initiative in hills, +3 defense when attacking/defending a city... that sort of thing? Thanks.

Guess I should have been more specifically actually.... i'm talking about adding new wav files to be used as the sounds for goodie huts (when you click on them) and units (when they move, attack etc). I want to look at music at some point... I think it is possible to change it actually... but might dropping files in to the core area.

Question for you guys playing COS.... do you think the Dark Angel and other "evil" Angels should count as Celestial (the unit stat) ? The Angel, the Celestial Defender, the Archon and the good Angels in the summoning path will all be "Celestial". I'm just not sure about the dark ones. HF's description of Celestial from his COS wiki says this as the definition for Celestial... Beings from the upper planes and other units that may be considered particular

Reply to [eLIB] UnitStat Background Mod v.M for LH 1.8 in LH Modding Elemental Forums

@HF, I notice you have classified demons (Assassin Demon, Death Demon etc) as both Elemental AND Demon. I would have thought that they were probably one or the other.... so maybe Demon and not Elemental. What was the reasoning for making them both? Is it because their base is Elemental that you figure they should also get to be Elemental? Thanks.
