For the same money, the only other melee unit you can get is Vanara Infantry.

The only difference is the Buckler. It's just as if they had two more defense... BUT! It's still just def 11. It's not good. And this isn't normal defense, but a shield, and enemies can just punch through the shield! Effectively, they can overcome the shield with either good attack roll or stat, or high-damage weapon or good strength or lucky roll. Then I tested them. Vanara Infantry survive much, much better than I thought! The buckler, even the buckler, makes a huge difference! I was surprised. It'll take some time to become accustomed to this new shield system. Especially with the new four-handed national summons... http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/laugh.gif

I predicted bucklers would not be trivial and last time I checked, I don't make foolish assumptions. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/wink.gif Numbers are everything.

I think it would be nice to see some Ti'en Chi or however you spell them.

RoTR looks very cool!

It's been too long since the last screenie. I think it's time to resurrect this thread.

T'ien Chi or Caelum would both interest me. Or, heck, more on Bandar Log while we're at it.

As we all know, time is relative. For me, who can play Dominions 3 whenever I want, time passes fast, sometimes even too fast. For others, like JaydedOne here, time passes far more slowly. I'm not sure how long, exactly, he waited for an update in this thread. I think it's the most common 24h per 1 beta hour, in which case the 69 hours between Sibylline Caves and his post lasted for over two months! Sorry about that, I was busy playing and forgot how slowly time passes in your position.

Speaking of time, time is a limited resource. It's hard to get, and almost impossible to reverse.

Which is sometimes a pity. Ancestor Smiths are even better fighters, by the way. 66/50 years old, they have the exact same maluses as the Spirit Masters, but still just as skilled as the best warriors of the barbarian tribes. The best warriors who are possessed by the spirits of the best warriors of the ancestors' time, that is.
They have interesting randoms, by the way, these leaders of the barbarian tribes. Of AENDS, they can get any but the one they already are strong in. That is, Ancestor Smiths have E2 and can't get E3, just as Spirit Masters can't get N3 and Ancestor Guides can't get Death 3.

Fascinating.

And you're awake at this time? 0:33 is no time to wait for an erratic poster to post few more pictures of a game you'll have in just a few weeks' time. Begone, Servant of the Sandman! Go back to your master and knock yourself cold! Scamper, lest I release a swarm of ancestors to hunt you down!

Since we now have so many more national troops who are animals, what is the significance of being one? Aside from the Beast Trainer maybe having animal awe, I can't recall anything.

Someone has been watching too many Xena re-runs http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/laugh.gif

Actually, Endo, I was up for other reasons. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/fear.gif
