Healing and Afflictions

thoughts on healing options and best anti affliction choices

Chalice, gift of health, faery queen, national commanders/summons with healing.

As for anti-affliction, the only option is Regeneration which reduces your affliction chance by 1/10. Other than that, have lots of HP or just dont get hit.

... or only use units with recuperation.

Yeah, all Pangaea units have recuperation. Some others have it as well.

What does it mean exactly? Only by 10%? Each point of regen? Does higher regen reduces stronger(as in manual)? What's corelation?

Honestly I don't think anyone knows a definitive answer re: regeneration vs afflictions.

[Tollund]

It's definitely very effective. I have a compstomp game with a friend going where I have both the Summoning Circle (60% blood spell reduction) and the leper fens (Spreads deadly disease, 1D1W) in the same province. This would be a difficult/expensive thing to work around except that I'm playing Midgard so all of my Galdermen regenerate. After ~20 turns of being diseased, most only have one or two extra afflictions.

Check edi's database
theres 19 commanders with healing
Acrocephale, Tienchi, EA Ermor, Gath (or hinnom or the other one), and LA Pythium I think are the ones with recruitable healers.
I think only the priestess of acro has skill of 100 of those recruitables. The rest have 50 at most.
The mother of the serpents pretender has 100 skill also. She can heal herself.

Ashdod and Gath can both cast Call Arel, a 50 healer. It's rather expensive and difficult to get to. They have no recruitable healers that I am aware of.
