Reply to The fact that outposts cost population makes them largely useless in Legendary Heroes Elemental Forums

[quote quoting="post"] I understand why it costs population to create cities but why does the same apply to outposts? I don't see any obvious benefits to creating outposts if they cost population just like cities do. I think there should be 2 kinds of pioners. 1 type that builds cities and costs population, and 1 type that builds outposts and doesn't cost population. I really hope a patch or something will make this happen. And if it won't, c

Reply to More Resource Types? in Legendary Heroes Elemental Forums

Firefly normally i love your suggestions but i think this one is a bad one. I agree with you that iron especially is too plentiful, but i don't see a need for more types. We already get more production from lumber, more food from grains, more production from clay. I think we are good on types.

[quote who="GFireflyE" reply="3" id="3376384"] Reduced the Crushing Blow Ability from 100% bonus attack to 50% bonus attack. [/quote] Very much agree here. Not saying 50% is the right number, maybe 75% is better....but some reduction is warranted.

Reply to Too easy? in Legendary Heroes Elemental Forums

[quote who="theemaster" reply="42" id="3377007"] I think without question my observation that "the towns are weak" is pretty much true.. it's interesting but the towns/civ part of the game doesn't scale like the monsters do.. [/quote] I would agree that it is too easy to take villages, even high level ones. I think the defender units should get the best weapons AND armor for your tech level, that would make them significantly more durable.

Reply to Too easy? in Legendary Heroes Elemental Forums

[quote who="webusver" reply="40" id="3371314"] "Too easy?" - in my practise this is just one part of a problem. In some situations its easy to win, but in other situations it is easy to lose. There is not much options for continuous struggle where is is not obvious who will win. But this is the problem of almost every strategy game. [/quote] I think this is well said. I think the game tends to steamroll too easily one way or the other.

Reply to Are "hero only armies" a good strategy? in Legendary Heroes Elemental Forums

Heroes are also good at taking out units with high defense. Mages have elemental magics and warriros have a high attack. A strong 5 man squad still loses a lot of damage to high defense troops.

Why do all of my enemies now have regen 2? in Legendary Heroes Elemental Forums

I've noticed in recent battles that all of my enemies now have regen 2. I'm still on expert difficulty, and didn't notice this until recently. Was this a part of the recent patch?

Reply to Clubs vs. Spears in Legendary Heroes Elemental Forums

[quote who="parrottmath" reply="7" id="3376877"] Might be nice if impale ability ignores 33% more armor. That would make it more useful and fits in the theme of the attack.[/quote] Technically impale (and the axe's cleave) should negate a bit more armor than normal. The reason is a normal 10x3 impale attack turns into a single 30 attack....which should penetrate armor easier. That said, i haven't really noticed that working in g

Reply to [Suggestion] Simple growth model to get rid of pioneer banking in LH Support Elemental Forums

[quote who="Morikar" reply="3" id="3376635"] My main concern is that the current mechanic makes grain yield almost irrelevant when picking city spots. A city with 2 grains will grow just as fast as one with 6 grains and it only takes 1 town and a nature's bounty enchantment for a 2 grain city to reach level 4. The net effect is that it's always wasteful to pick city spots with more than 2-3 grain yield (even more so when considering wild grain / orchard resources).<br

no boats. I don't think water combat would significantly increase the gameplay aspect, but would add a lot of complexity.

Reply to Add buildable Walls to Fortresses! in Legendary Heroes Elemental Forums

Anyone know the earliest the blood moon random event can come up? That one makes everyone go to war with you, so its one way to be at war with everything that moves. I'm not saying some more defenses wouldn't be useful, but i have learned the defensive power of outposts. An outpost with fortify and an armory can magnify a small group of defensive troops to equal a much larger force, especially if you can blast the encroaching army with damage and debuffs.

How much is essence worth? in Legendary Heroes Elemental Forums

You find that nice 3/3/2 site, but just next to it is a 2/6 in forest next to water. Automatic go for the essence or a tough call? In general, we all want essence, but how much is it really worth? How much prod/food do you give up for essence? Would you build one a spot that gives 2 essence even if you lose the ability to make another city in the area? How about for 3 essence?

Which monsters are under/overrepresented in their threat level? in Legendary Heroes Elemental Forums

I was curious if you all found certain monsters to be exceptionally hard or easy for their difficulty? For me 3 comes to mind: 1) Darklings: I find even medium threat darklings to be a joke to fight. Their attack is so low that once i have just a little bit of defense i can mow through them. 2) Ophidian: With a x3 special attack bite, very high defense, and magic immunity, i find these critters very tough for their normal medium threat.

Reply to Technological singularity around the corner? in Personal Computing Elemental Forums

Right now we do seem to be on a collision course for the singularity, but there is no factor of history that we have to take into account...the only constant is change. We have been on an exponential technology pace for a good long while now, so of course our predictions assume that will continue to happen. Well in many cases the actual future shows us that those trends don't last forever. It is very possible we hit a hard roadblock in computing and the singularity

Reply to Are green "+ number" icons in build list mouseover information additional or redundant? in Legendary Heroes Elemental Forums

[quote who="Fallenchar" reply="1" id="3375400"] With buildings, the new, total value is listed. If it's 4 -> 4, you do not gain anything more of that resoure type.

Reply to Assassin vs warrior vs defender in Legendary Heroes Elemental Forums

To me the main issue is that warriors seem better at the assassination role than assassins. If you want to make an assassin warrior, get a big club with all of the attack bonuses and then the crushing blow bonus tree, and you now have a guy that can rack up massive damage in a single hit, enough to one shot many creatures.

Reply to Assassin vs warrior vs defender in Legendary Heroes Elemental Forums

[quote who="Azunai_" reply="14" id="3375120"] i wonder how the dodge vs. accuracy calculation actually works.[/quote] Its a straight up comparison. So if i have 80 accuracy vs 20 dodge, i have a 60% chance to hit. 140 accuracy would negate 40 dodge.

Reply to Help me understand the math in Legendary Heroes Elemental Forums

Another question. Lets say i have a weapon that does 11 base, and 3 fire damage. When i do the calculation, is the damage: 11 vs defense + 3 vs fire resistance, or is the 3 also calculated in the attack vs defense calculation?

Will output defense/attack upgrades affect cities or other outposts? in Legendary Heroes Elemental Forums

Something just occurred to me, wanted to see if anyone had tried it. If i put an outpost in range of my city, and give it the armory upgrade, will it affect the units in a city when the city is attacked? Also if two outposts are in range of each other, and both have armories, will the effect stack for the space between them?

How to permanently remove units i have made? in Fallen Enchantress Elemental Forums

So I've made a fair amount of units, and while some are good some i've realized later i didn't build very well. Problem is i haven't found a way to permanently delete a unit i've made. retiring stops showing it to me for the single game, but the unit still shows up in later games (and the ai will start using them!) Is there a way to truly delete a unit design?

Reply to OP Militia? Why i'm still using militia in the mid/late game in Legendary Heroes Elemental Forums

[quote who="highwayhoss" reply="15" id="3373384"] .Problem is that counterattack is the swords' only specialty. Swords need a special ability or two to make them more effective. [/quote] Yep, i think swords could use another ability. When we talk about hammers, we only talk about crushing blow, but it also has bash. Not so great in the early game, but once your attacks are in 13-20 range you get a successful bash fairly often.

Is there a mod that removes the chain/and or plate proficiency from early game units? in LH Modding Elemental Forums

Hi all, Starting to take a look at the mods out there. One thing that annoys me is the early game use of chain and plate proficiencies when those armies are far down the tech tree. its a waste of early game hammers for something that many of the units i make will never see. Is there a mod that removes that proficiency?
