[The Fifth Horseman]

No problem. If you need any more help with any other games... just ask.

I was playing it today, I love this game since day I play it....

Keeping the things simple and experimenting, this game have a HIGH replaying level)....

The funny thing is: today I get something I call "The Flying Dutch" unit.....

And of course: is a YAB :bleh:

I dont know, I have a archmage with 2 life books, 6 or 7 books of Chaos and 1 of nature (wich I find in a Keep), .I was advanced in the game (normal level, I dont have enough experience to deal with immpossible level), also I was Myrrean and Dark Elf Civ, also extermined the other mage in myrra (Ss´ra) and I have the other 4 mages alive, I have a good mixture of spells and found the Artificer and Runesmaster artifacs in some Lair too...

I was having a good time when a Dark Elfs Galleon wich I build to pick a captured-then-settled Halfings isolated in a isle to traslade to a few lone continent (I wanna more Farms) then suddendly and without explication the Galleon becomes WindWalker/DemonCaster/Invissble/immune to Poison, fire, death, and a lot of more stuff I cant rememeber/have Death precence or something (have a Skull item in his propeties)/"Corrupting Soil" stuff and having a lot of swords, shields and crosses.....and Plane Travel included...

When I see that thing i said "Wow, Davy Jones is in the house" LOL

Obviously I use to get into the most powerfull mage continent and have some fun....until I cast Crusader and
the thing was unstoppable, Shamans and lesser units (this saved game sucks cuz everyone have packs and packs of Klaklon bugs).....

The flaws this Black Pearl have: never send it against a city, he dont move at all and the game defeats u and lost the unit.

A pack of 9 Fire Breathing elite Battle Bugs ruin his paint, if u not cast anything to help him, of course...

If anyone wanna see it send me a mail to biesiuss2 (at) yahoo.com

Master of Magic Rules the planet....

Something cool characters development to add to a MoM2 or Fanmods can be:

Hero afinnity: a Chaos Hero can develop better with a Chaotic Archmage than a LifeArchmage one...

The Hability of at certain level the Heroes can be independent (LOL) exp:
Making the Heros have "Life Time", Example, Jars serve u for 30 "Arcanum or Myrran" years then retire or jubilate, This make more Heroes available (ok im tired of having Bagthru on my door every time I play) and rotate and renew the possibilities.

When u leave a certain Hero in a mid-developed city, then other mage induces him to his side, he betrays u and join the other Mage. Also u can do that with other Mage Heros, so some features to keep your Hero can be greated, like Nobelity issues or Magic/Gold rewards.

To Extend the playing Game u can "Jubilate" a certain Hero after a reasonable time of service, making him regent or something of certain number of cities.... This can help to avoid rebellions for a certain time. Dreaming a little u can creat "Bloodlines".

Made these regular "Ultra Elite" or "Champion" units generate a Hero, example:

I have a pack of Longbows garrisoned in the Main City from the beguinning, for one or another reason they survive all the game and When I finish they still there, at highest level. Why not a "special" Building available when you have a certain number of Capitals or certain monetary level and buildings where u send a Ultra Elite or Champion´s to train adn get a Hero?, maybe a skill of the Archmage can be "Wizard Trainer or Hero Trainer".

That and some campaing mode can be great in this game, even If still in low res graphics what I plead is a good storytelling Game....

Thanks for having it here!

At the impossible setting enemy wizards get several advantages...

This brings up an interesting point. Does anyone know how to "break into" the game and give ourselves some unfair advantages?

[The Fifth Horseman]

I might if I had enough data to process.

But I don't feel like working on that.

Simply, look here - Dirty Little Helper
All you need yet is a hex-editor and some basic knowledge with it.

The "Flying Dutch Unit" is so cheap. Well, I guess a lot of things are cheap in this game. They're not as cheap since there's no real multiplayer mode yet. I like using Dark Elves for their Warlocks' special Doom Bolt. Ten hits instantly like that will kill nearly anything. A full army of Warlocks can take out anything (without Magic Immunity, right?).

Exactly, you wouldn't want to try that against one or more sky drakes...

Thanks Scatty. In fact I have no knowledge (basic or otherwise) regarding hex editing...but this is the kind of game that inspires a quest for knowledge....

It's easier then it seems, really. The hardest part will be to get familiar with the hexadecimal numbering system.

For a decent editor, I recommend Hex Workshop. Maybe not the best there is, but I've been using it for seven years now and didn't have any complaints so far. Plus, it includes a numeric converter from decimal to hexadecimal values and vice versa.

Thanks again! you answered my next question before I could ask it. I hope you're right about it being easier than it seems. After my first glance...well, I guess I don't have to tell you how it seems...
