Well, had a 100-3/100 SF center that Perdan took away sadly. Damned Atanamir lol!

You shouldn't have used them against me!  >:(

That center had some really high level pyrotechnics, even in the midst of storms a 50 men unit scored 1500+ ranged hits.

Latest try produced 85/85, still no ranged troops :(

That's like winning the lottery the chance to get that tiny.


I've done the math before.

It's actually easier to win the lottery.

I have heard that the situation with the best odds is a city without any other recruitment centers? From what I have seen, it appears to hold true.

It would be nice if SF centres with speccial abilities have that ability noted apart from their equipment and range if available.
If there really are 'special abilities' that is.

There are two myths in BM, special abilities of SFs and Hero bonus. I've seen hero bonus in battle, not so sure about special abilities unless you count some random instances where almost all my wounded men healed up and crazy ranged hits even in a midst of a storm.

I have to say it would be nice if it was included in the stats.

Other than higher CS and cost I have never personally seen the 'special abilities' but that's just me.

I believe this was rejected due to the abilities being related to some dev secrets.

Hero bonus is right on the wiki. It's not a big bonus, but essentially your noble counts as one man for the purposes of determining CS (or something similar).

And the SF of Makar I have seen with my own eyes, on battle reports. Also the former ruler of Makar, Sordnaz, confirmed as much on another forum thread--read it and weep: http://forum.battlemaster.org/index.php/topic,397.msg7486.html#msg7486

Further confirmation that they could be illegal under the Geneva Convention. :O

I assume this was the Behexed Artillery? 1600 is a HUGE hit, even for a 50 man unit.

I've only one battle report for my unit but 6 Be-hexed artillery scored 159 hits. 

I think that's more than enough to class them as battle winners.

My 29-man SF unit on FEI has gotten over 1200 hits in a single round. I could see a 50 man unit approaching 2k, if not quite a bit more.

Johnny never once, in the nine years I've known the guy, provided empirical evidence for his assertions about the Behexed Artillery.
