We can currently have between 5-2 stacks. Now depends on what you are fighting depends on the stack size. However it think it would be nice to be able to get one stack as well :)
This would make a good add for 2 reasons. New people are able to set records and it could make hunts faster.
Second reason this could also mean using less AP. Because as your stacks get bigger if your fighting for example 30 titans in one stack whether you wear def arts or not they are goign to destroy you near enough. So you might as well use minimum AP. This would help the economy a bit.
Opinions are welcome. Spam/Flood however isnt. | | I do agree, HoMMV also has the chance of having only 1 stack in a neutral battle | For some monsters it will be good (especially shooters and broadattackers) but for others it will be bad (unlimited retaliation)
and some factions have bigger advantages of it then other advantages, for example, if a hunt comes in 1 stack
then battledance and broadattack are useless. Look at kiaune now, she can defeat 20 000 ++ zombies because they come in many stacks and a stack of sprites can hit 3 of those stacks each time, but with only 1 huge stack of zombies, you already lost before you try.
So this would mean, that ALL the hunt records will become "luck" and not "skill"
It is already like that with the large creatures, look at the top level records, against those 2x2 monsters, they all have an advantage because of some smart placed rocks on the battlefield. If you get hunts in 1 stack, the chance to get in the top hunters list is completely based on luck, and not on skill anymore | | oh please some races will have a disadvantage to one stack yes but where not here to cater to 1 race others will have an advantage and it still takes some kind of skill if there all together they will hurt when they hit and take a long time to take out dont make much difference either way |

it's already like this.
without luck you can't do anything.
1: for all hunt records, you need to be lucky on morale/luck triggers (sometimes 3 of 5 neutral stacks have morale on their first turn: battle lost)
2:for some monsters you need luck at the number of stacks you meet.
to break records for monsters like poisoners, griffins, or modern golems, you need to meet them in 5 stacks, for monsters like lizard cubs, you need to meet 2 stacks...
3:some factions are a lot based on luck.
for exemple knights.
crossbows deals 2-16 damages (2 if min damages, 16 if max damages+ luck)
swords and recruits can stun...or not.
a knight could win a battle with min AP and luck, and lose the same battle with full arts and bad luck.
luck is always vert important, a hunt record is between 50 and 95% luck (depending on your faction, and on the creatures you are facing)
but having 1-5 stacks instead of 2-5 would increase the luck part of the records, and i don't think it's a good thing.
i'd rather increase the skill part of the records ;) |
