Reply to Should mages be initiated? in Legendary Heroes Elemental Forums

Thanks to everybody for comments. That's what I've done finally in Patchwork mod - Added new racial trait "Monk Robes" (costs 0 to choose like Masterwork Chain mail) which replaces Leather armor with a set of robes. If you wish your light troops look like mages, or you prefer Dodge over Defence, this option is for you. Otherwise you just keep good old leather armor. Also I added new class of troops - zealots. They fight with melee staffs. Staff class of weapons is expanded. Ea

Reply to OK, so I have a radical idea about unit stacks... in Legendary Heroes Elemental Forums

This is a very interesting idea but how would AI be prepared for it? AI should lead only armies with heroes. AI heroes should train hard to get command points. AI should train his low level heroes very well. Otherwise AI will be weak. After recruiting a 9 level hero there is a chance to recruit 1 level heroes which may lead very weak armies.

Almost forgot about the main idea: I tried to make AI enchant his cities with more unit spells, such as Heart of Fire, Aura of Might. I set better priorities for these spells but still the best priority is with Enchanted Hammers spell. Then goes Heart of fire, Inspiration and the rest combat and city spells. 3 level city adds 1 essense. I hope this helps AI to enchant his cities with more unit spells. AI also should build more fortresses to produce better troops.

Today the new update is uploaded: I found and fixed some "misses": Quendar units often doesn't have Scar stones, Urxen missing poison vials. Major changes: Economy model. To build any building you need money. Earlier it was for free. Who will do something for free nowdays? Now gold is a very valuable resource. Units also demand money and subtract population from their city. Staff class of weapons is expanded. Earlier there were just a staff

You made everything right. Prestige means growth. In the original FE growth was determined by prestige value. I've also made such changes in my mod and tested this. It works.

Need essence in essence? in Legendary Heroes Elemental Forums

There are some issues about AI and here is a proposal how to solve them. What do you think, will this work? 1. AI doesn't enchant his troops. 2. AI chooses unoptimal places for settlements. 3. Human players almost every time take Enchanters (to have Scrying pool) while AIs may not have them. Why does this happen? City spells that enchant units are more expensive than econimic city enchamntement spells and have lewer priority. Thus Enchanted hammers

[quote who="Apheirox" reply="7" id="3427840"] As predicted, siege combat has become more of an issue with the patch as the AI is now better at garrisoning cities. While it's good cities are no longer being left wide open [as often], the problem becomes the opposite: That cities are nigh unconquerable. If we're in the early stages of a game my armies will consist of a hero and up to five units. A city can garrison nine defending units plus the autonomous city garrison itself. The

This time I approached the mod with high pragmatism and deleted most overenthusiastic features thet were in it earlier. The mod now is closer to original but AI acts more in style of human player. AI fights unrest in his cities and improves production earlier that in original. AI uses horses more often and equips his units better with magical amulets and other items. Battles are more intensive. Tha mod now is compatible with all other mods that don't change Hero trait develo

There is a trait like Coward which gives -30 Accuracy vs units of higher level. So Heroic could give some bonus to Accuracy. Sadly Tarthans already have one version of Heroic trait. I think that units with heroic trait should fight better when they fight in small groups or badly wounded.

Should mages be initiated? in Legendary Heroes Elemental Forums

Recently I felt sick when my units mages and heroes prefered leather armor. They don't look as mages in leather armor, do they? What if there were a trait "Initiate" (or what name do you suggest?) which will allow to wear Staffs and robes, but will disallow to use any other armor? It will act as Armor profficiency 1 and 2 and could be applied to trained units. I think it also should grant somthing magic in a small bonus, for example 10% spell resistance and +1 to initiativ

[quote who="Raiddinn" reply="11" id="3426353"] I am not really sure that we are talking about what a "Warrior Caste" usually entails. A caste system generally means that society is divided into clear groupings and ranked against each other with relatively little potential to move from one caste to another. Usually, whatever caste your parents were in is what caste you are going to be in. So there might be a caste system that breaks down like this: Royal
