pin cushions: river pirates...

[Slaists]

anybody else find them handy for training up their horse archery skill? unarmored, no meaningful missiles to speak of (stones don't count since those do 0 damage if you're armored)... shoot away... ))

what gives me problems though are sea raiders... seems their marksmanship is better than mine even from across the map... ouch! and those flying axes hurt as hell too...

 

[Juno]

lol yup, grinding river pirates FTW!!!

 

[Gilrain]

Oh yes, bow fodder!!

Although it would nice if guy with three javelins in his body would run away or at lest beg for mercy instead of acting like junkie in crisis.

 

[Slaists]

yep. probably, this has been somewhere here in suggestions already. but it still would be a nice addition to the game: wounding someone should cause movement speed drop + morale damage... with a chance of having the unit attempt routing... and this should apply to the player char as well...

fatigue would be nice too... running hundreds of rounds on horseback would bring the beast to crawl... especially the armored ones. it would essentially make having unarmored coursers (rather than heavy chargers, etc.) a requirement for horse archers & lancers, for example...

I do believe Armagan has said that there will be battle stamina.

 

[Sir Prince]

For the enimies, gladly, for me, NO. I want to be able to turn it off for my char. Or something like that if it can be modded

 

[Melvin Poon]

YESH! I'm playing unmodded, so I have 50 bodkins + war bow + a scim and I work on headshots. But I usually run my horse to the highest point then dismount and start peppering the pirates. When they get close enough, I'll ride away to reload on ammo till the whole pirate army is wiped out.

 

[Garth]

I don't even touch them.

I roleplay that the river pirates are actually rebels from the sea have come to help save the land from the terrible invasion from the Dark Kingdom and the devastating sea raids. And the land is, essentially, screwed.

In that case, your game difficulty should automaticaly change to "*****"

 

[Sir Prince]

It is, actualy. No wait, ai is set to good.

Actually, he said...

I like the stamina idea. I'll try to add it if I can find the time.

Nothing definitive, it's a possibility.

I agree with NikkTheTrick, you're a wuss.

Yeah that's what I'm doing with my new character. All the troops stay at the starting points and I ride off with my charger. Headshot, headshot, headshot...

 

[Rabid Potatoe]

And as it is written, river pirates suck.

That would be so ****ing boring...that would really put me off the game.

What's boring about that? Getting one arrow in the leg, so that you are unable to run away, and getting butchered by bandits is not boring... In that case, you will regret soloing. "Somebody! HELP!"

 

[Slaists]

yup, good generalship would become much more important...

 

[quixotecoyote]

good genrealship would first have to be possible in the form of improved troop controls and AI.

And I agree having to cross the map at half speed to finish off the pathfinding challanged would get old fast.

 

[xXxkittyfighterxXx]

yes that would be cool because if you like, got hit right in the hand by a javelinyou like wouldnt be able to attack as good over a certain period of time
although, that would be WAY to much work for armagadan. armagadan if you are reading this, i feel sorry for you because you gotta make all these changes and like every forum

What would be cool for all of us archers.... If when you get hit with an arrow, you could get all manly like, and pull the arrow out of your arm, draw it back with your bow, and return it to sender with pazzaz in the form of a head shot!
