AuthorDelay and curse
What is the effect of these and how/when/on who do I use it.

Tried curse while hunting rogues, but it seemed to have no or little effect on the rogue.

Curse is best on units with a high damage range like the 2-8 of crossbows. And delay has the highest effect on units with high initiative, like shrews.
Ok, the explanation only confuses me, getting terrible flashbacks of my math book. Can anyone explain in easy ENGLISH, please?
Ok, Shandira, understand your post. Referred to Bartek.
So, if I cast delay on a shrew, does that mean all shrews are effected by delay, or only that particular shrew?

Please answer, confused. The help section is very scientific and difficult if english is not your first language.
Delay or curse only works on the troop you used it on.

There is a talent that makes delay 4x4 area so it works on the troops in that area.
Rathenn,

When you cast Delay. That stack you cast on is made slower for a length of time equals to your spell power. Amount of delay is based on how many talents you have in Dark magic (20% slower to 40% slower).

By having a stack slower, it moves less often and thus won't attack you as many times. Thus a unit with initiative 14 would instead of moving 14 times would move from 11.2 (20% slower) times to 8.4 times (40% slower) per 10 rounds of action.

Curse affects the maximum damage a stack can do. Minimum damage is not changed. Just say that the stack will do less damage in general based on how many talents you have in Dark Magic . A unit that does 2 to 8 points per creature in the stack would now do from 2 to 5 (without talents) to 2 to 2 (At Expert Dark).

Is that simple enough? I can try for simplier...
I think it is the english that is a problem for me here. People tell me my english is good, but still... Hmm..

Can you explain what stack means? Is it all creatures of the same kind? Like if I cast delay on a rogue, are ALL rogues effected, or what do you mean with stack? (My dictionary suggests "a pile of things" "alot of things" "bookshelves".) Please help!
curse is very effective for my hunts.
What is a stack???

I now it's noob Question but I DON'T KNOW!
a stack is a group of monsters

A stack in ths game is 1 type of unit with x#s of that unit on 1 little square on the map. Each stack is also shown on that bar in the lower center of your screen.
There are dictionary (even free online dictionary) if your problem is a single word!

"Stack" is more or less equal to "group"
Thanks Pantheon, that was the answer I was looking for! : )
(I think it means if there are 5 rogues, those 5 rogues are affected, but not the other rogues on other squares.Right?)
