Title: Daimon Cleanup
Post by: Indirik on July 28, 2012, 08:13:24 PM: Wow, that battle in Gethsemene was amazing. The cavalry charge in Round 5 was incredible. Took down 100 daimons in one shot, which was 2/3rds of the remaining melee daimons. My infantry lasted long enough to get one shot at the ranged daimons in the back in round 10 before getting slaughtered. Then we had a 9-round archer duel ending in a tie battle. I sure didn't expect things to go that well.

Post by: Indirik on July 28, 2012, 08:14:44 PM: Total:
3 attackers (664 other)
27 defenders (576 Inf, 58 MI, 295 Arch, 483 Cav, 41 SF)
Total combat strengths: 24724 vs. 17874
The region owner Sint and their allies defend.
The Netherworld troops attack because they are at war with Old Grehk.

Strong winds and gusts are making ranged combat a game of luck.
The defenders take up positions inside the Fortress (5).

Good fortifications do that for you.

Tsk tsk. Fools. You cannot possibly fathom the awesomeness of MI units.

Jokes aside, they still suck :o

I guess it's a matter of preference. I believe MI are like archers, but better.

Using my first MI unit atm, and I can concur :)

Post by: fodder on July 31, 2012, 01:39:47 PM: .. is that only because they shoot out of range?

Post by: Cren on August 01, 2012, 07:37:35 AM: My archers were good in melee combat, perhaps that was due to my char being a hero and having high swordfighting skill.

No, that was just one person. Your personal skills do not add to your unit, except for leadership.
