Stacking

[hydrus]

It's me again  

I have a problem with stacking. for example mind ripper are fourth in my army list how can I put them as first stack during an attack (without removing the other three)! The first stack attacks the first stack defending and so on... what are the excpetions i.e. abilities that change this?
Thx in advance

1st stack Vs 1st Stack
2nd Stack Vs 2nd Stack

there are a few exceptions, if you have infantry units, they will atack the first GROUND stack they are allowed to.

Example:

1.treants
2. sprite
3. elf magician

VS

1.AAs
2. Unicorn
3. Doms

The treants will atack the unicors since they can´t fly. The sprites will atack the AAs, and the Elf magician will be able to attack the Doms because they have ranged attack.

On the other hand, The AAs will attack the treants. The unicorns won´t attack? and the doms the elf magicians or the sprites.....right now I have auto confused myself

there is no special abilitie that change the order just remember:

flying units battle power : net power * 2.5 (or 2.25 don´t remember)
ranged unit battle power: net power * 1
all other unit battle power: net power * 1.5

and that´s how you stack

OK I got that with the order of attack!
But if my army list as ii appears when choosing attacking units is

1) Sprites
2) Mind Rippers
3)...
4)...

is there a way to send sprites+mind rippers AND have mind rippers as first stack??

No, u have to summon more mr or to disband some sprites

[hydrus]

Summon more or disband ?? How is this gonna change anything ?? ?

[Pablox]

well, stacks r ordered by the power of the units on it, if ur sprites has 500 ks of battle power & ur mr 300ks the sprites will be ur first stack in the battle, if u summon 300 ks of battle power of mr the mr will be ur first stack  and the sprites the second,and remember that in battle ur flyings units increase his power * 2.5 , melee units * 1.5 and ranged units * 1, so ur sprites has more battle power thant net power, u can see the order of ur stack in battle looking ur status report and apply the battle bonus on  the % of power of ur units.

P.S: sorry for my foul english.

Hmm here is an extract of my status report:

knight  2.43%
djinni   9.18%
ice elemental 29.44%
etc.

Why are the knights first stack ?? <_<
Ice Elementals should be first, djinns second etc. right    

[Pablox]

that order no matter so much, u have to look up the % of power, and in ur status report units don´t have the battle bonus, to know how is ur stack ordered in battle go to rank and click sieged or regular, the % of power in the battle report(before atacking, in the screen that u have to choose what units go to battle, and what spell&item u want to use) is the real % of power in battle, and no matter how they r ordered, u have to look the % of power.

P.S: sorry again for my foul english
