Cool! Maybe skeles could be resistant to arrows but weak vs axes and flying portile (rock, trebuchet ammo) would destroy it in one hit

Yeah, that is pretty much how the armor is set up.

CODE

Armor SkeletonArmor
Armor = DEFAULT 100%
Armor = CHOP 200%
Armor = SLASH 150%
Armor = PIERCE 5%
Armor = SPECIALIST 25%
Armor = CRUSH 50%
Armor = SIEGE 200%
Armor = FLAME 100%
Armor = FROST 100%
Armor = MAGIC 100%
Armor = WATER 100%
Armor = HERO 125%
Armor = CAVALRY 75%
Armor = HERO_RANGED 25%
Armor = STRUCTURAL 25%
Armor = CAVALRY_RANGED 5%
Armor = POISON 0%
Armor = URUK 125%
FlankedPenalty = 33%
End


And I'm sure it's been mentioned elsewhere but "Magic" has been split up - Silverthorne arrows do not do the same damage type as a wizard's magic. Similar to BFME1, wizards and similar powers do 100% damage to nearly every unit type, regardless of their armor. The overall balance has been completely re-worked, cavalry are cavalry, experience level gains do mean something once again and soooo much more. Unfortunately, there are no screen you can take of code except me passing out on the floor after all-nighters :p

Looks great in that video. It also looks as if it's going to cause some serious lag every time someone uses that spell in an online match :p

Nice job. *eagerly awaits more news*

if im correct, it shouldnt cause any lag because it will be an animation and not rendered in real-time. so itll be the same every time, there wont be any extra calculations done for this.

Yes, the build-up and the destruction are just like what is used in structions, animated models. If there are reports of increased lag for the power, I can scale down the animations even more by reducing sub-objects.

A particularily large army can be a source of lag, so this is not an unusual occurrence. We've taken some steps to minimise this since the version you're playing, removing banner carrier fx, and swapping the laggy leadership glows out for a lag-free decal system. Hopefully that should reduce you're problem when you get the next beta.

To make you're account name not pink, you need to validate your registration. You will have been sent an email with a link in to do this.

He said armoury, shikari, not army. I do believe that has been altered a bit to reduce lag.

And easter eggs are just fun little things that can be unlocked by doing certain things in game. For examples, Aragorn riding a scorpion or Gandalf on a fellbeast.
