lots of questions

[Kell Aset]

Flying cows heh, well there is always a possibility to implement ability to throw diseased dead animals with catapults at enemy to poison entire town.

[Puppeteer]

Plague victims, anyone?

[The Witch King of Angmar]

That would be really cool if that could be implemented somehow.

Perhaps you should implement a 'hardcore' gametype where friendly fire is enabled?


If wind is incorporated and it can effect arrow flights then perhaps a mage would have the ability to cause a short gush of wind to cause all arrows to alter course? Would be a useful tactic when attacking a fortified city, especially if you had a few mages and could minimise your losses...

I like the idea. Could even make the function a regional ability, as in only in certain regions can this skill be accessed. Like near Mountains or whatever.

Isn't the idea behind loading goblins into catapults an orc/ goblin lore stereotype? I vaguely remember Magic the Gathering cards that exhibited such nonsense. I thought it was hilarious on it's own. What would you think if you saw a six foot orc, or even a three foot goblin hurdling through the air at you? The mechanic can even cause the unit being launched to take damage if the unit doesn't land upon other units to soften the blow.
