And what is the changelog in comparison to the Russian version.

I could not find it.

And where is the changelog?

ζ Фopум ζ:  The Guild of Craftsmen   Добавлено: Вс Июн 19, 2016 3:54   Тeмa: Two Orcish bugs

1. The Cleaver unit is in the text description of the building that's his prerequisite called "Slayer"
2. It is stated that an Orc outpost MAY BE built next to an ordinary outpost. This is not the case. There rather must NOT be an Outpost in order to be able to build an Orc outpost.

I must've messed up something...how to enable control over the hired guards again???

ζ Фopум ζ:  The Guild of Craftsmen   Добавлено: Чт Мая 26, 2016 18:52   Тeмa: Re: Feedback on New Horizons



Leadership or Discipline. My first opinion is Leadership without a doubt; its name plainly asks for that. Since the Commander is pretty weak in the beginning of the game, leveling up more quickly seems to be relatively important for the units to bump up their stats, plus the morale bonus is nice. But what makes me think about Discipline is Leadership might at the very start seem a bit too weak, when every single HP is important. The +1 HP from Discipline in that sense might be more valuable (along with the nice resistance bonus).

Perhaps if the EXP gain would be bigger, like in the case of Wisdom with the hero. But I realize that would be a bit OP (at lvl 5 it would hypothetically be +50% experience gain and the commander already does seem overpowered in the late game). Perhaps the exp gain from Leadership should be higher in the beginning and then lower later on, to offset that?

By the way, regarding the choice of skills, it's not just about starting. It's always a problem if you don't simply want to go "evil" and want some magic - there's always a chance to get Necromacy. I always get pissed off when I want to get my Scout into a Ranger and he suddenly has got to become a necromancer.
Does that depend in any way on karma? I think it doesn't. If it did (e.g. negative karma yields that) I would understand it.

If he doesn't, I agree. But how about the Commander?

That depends on your world type and available technologies. I'm rather surprised you manage with a pure mage, since it requires quite a lot of crystals; the swamplands are best for mages due to crystals, for instance.

I've always found the ranger, due to his speed, the best hero. He is useful in almost every map and I've found the ranger->commander (ringleader) mixing being my most frequent type of hero.

The rangers' strength is his speed, while his greatest problem is that he can't take a lot of punch. He's absolutely tremendous early game (since in the start you get only Slingers and they're basically the junk of all ranged units) but his strength fades later on, so he might not be for the long-game. There are battles that are practically almost impossible to win even with a fully equipped leveled-up ranger accompanied with a strong army. But in any case, your first tactic is to immediately go buy him a bow and arrows and some armor and send him off scouting while building up your stronghold.

By the way, it also depends slightly on your alignment. Some units are more useful than others; it's also a problem if you mix up the various different morality units due to the loss on bonus. Militia and Slinger are good cheap units if you want to use as cannon fodder and then resurrect them mid-battle with the necro dude.

And the F10-pressing auto-battle?

ζ Фopум ζ:  The Guild of Craftsmen   Добавлено: Вс Фев 21, 2016 1:46   Тeмa: New Horizons v2.60 discussion thread

I sorely miss the old main screen soundtrack. It was brilliant; epic with a slow build and, it seems to me, of better sound quality than the current version.

Why the change?

EDIT: Also, there's a bug in the tutorial mission. Whenever you click end turn, the message warns you that "you haven't built anything" (despite not actually being able to, of course). It's annoying.

EDIT II: I just don't get it. Why's it continually asking me why I'm leaving people idle in provinces???

EDIT III: Auto-battle is no longer asking whether the hero is allowed to cast spells or summon units.

But the Orcs submitting me due to negative Karma, calling me "the Dark Lord" - shouldn't that be normal?

Are there any campaign ramifications? I ask because it seems to me the campaign is really designed for going either pure evil or goody.

Are there any working tactics for going all-neutral?
It seems difficult; at times quite impossible. The Militia and Slingers are so weak they die so often they have to be raised again after almost every battle.

In short, your problem is far too slow territorial expansion.

Isn't it a bit weird that the Archmage has better necromantic potentials than the Necromancer? I understand the game's mechanics and all the dual-class thingies...but you know what I mean?

P. S. What's this Druid? I don't remember it in the previous versions of the game and don't see the latest patch added him.
