Watch This Thread - New Server Updates
#1
All,
The new server will be receiving several updates over the next week. I have some time off from work and plan to implement the changes during that time.

Before that, I will be posting updated information on troop balances and kingdom spells. We'll be looking for feedback, comments, and suggestions from everyone before the changes are finalized.

Once the server updates are complete, I will start three test games on the new server: a 1-day game, a 2-day game, and a 1-week game. Please do not start any other games on the new server, as they will be deleted.

I also want to give a big shout-out to Olorin for all the work he has done on the game. As part of the testing, he will be taking the updated FO as his kingdom of choice in the 1-week game.

Stay tuned...

Brek

This is awesome. Thanks.

We should have a beauty contest for the best brigade and a reverse beauty contest for the worst (skeletons?).

How does shield affect these and to what degree?

Can you add a little more context to your question.

Does the shield spell increase overall troop defensive numbers or is only resistance in the first two phases of combat? Does magic make poorer troops a little better in each combat phase?

Say you have below average troops, and you cast a powerful P9 shield on those troops, will they, in terms of game mechanics, fight let’s say good or above average troops now? Or is it no more than shield bonus from say westmen troops?

Strongwill,

Shield will improve your defensive value in every stage of combat.

There is no way to know if your 'below average' DV troops will go to 'good' or not because Brek has not yet disclosed the standard deviations. I'm sure that's coming. You also may need the troop's starting DV but Alamaze has always withheld that for whatever reason.

I can tell you that your P9 casing shield will nearly double the group's DV.

Agree, I was mostly curious if this had been change to effect only the first two phases of battle, like the physical shield troop bonus of WE. Which I think was like a very minor 10% windstorm effect? Could be wrong but thanks for the reply brother.. I’ve always computed as a 5% bump or 1/2 movement up the defensive value on the chart so for every two lvls I would bump approx one lvl higher on defense. Crude estimates and all..
