FORO THE LORD ARCHMAGE

when is armageddon?                    

here\'s a wonderful idea, let\'s not screw people by taking the server down for an unannounced period of time.  That changes the game.  And if you do take it down.  FIX SOMETHING while you are at is :dfuck:                    

Currently inferno works at a very low level, for 500000 mana and 100 turns of researching as an ultimate spell, it is not what it has been in the past.  Blacks (using sabbath) can accumulate so many knave stacks that it is imossible for nearly any army of any color to kill enough units to inflict significant damage.  it\'s bad enough that people that have 1700 acres get to positon number four, but the fact that there is nothing a legitimate player can do to counter a mage like that is silly.  Red\'s used to feed on sabbath mages because they knew that inferno would kill ALL zombies and skeletons and take a mage at position 4 and can them down to 1200 after killing over a million units.  Without this, red is stripped of it\'s biggest spell and blacks are loose to create a sabbath mage 7 days before armageddon and place it in the hall of fame.



2nd pg needs to be fixed so that it doesn\'t work as well off color, this makes blue crap because they can\'t exploit pure trees.  My mage is red and has never lost a battle since it has run pure trees.  In the old archmage, my trees would be doing 4k tops, but now I\'m doing 9600 hands down.  No one expects that sort of power from a red.



3rd, hero effects are currently only effecting a units 1st attack.  this makes them half as effective for trees and a fraction of it\'s effectiveness for red dragons, liches, and mind rippers.  This has to be fixed for units with a more powerful 2nd attack.



Lastly, Barriers are supposed to block spells and items, not one or the other.  To get a spell through on someone all you have to do is use a crap item and the barriers will only block that.  The huge mana loss to getting max barriers isn\'t worth it unless it blocks 75% of EVERYTHING considering your army must be at roughly 1/2 strength.  The only reason to waste your time currently is because any \"random\" item ALWAYS hits the top stack!!  That\'s prettly lame if you are trying to run pure dragons, even with max barriers, you will lose 1/4 of the time :dfuck:
