Herne

[WarKirby]

Something has just occured to me.

I belive the Kuriotates in FFH, have an early Centaur hero named Herne. Was added fairly recently, I think.

FF doesn't have this. Presumably never ported over.
Could we get him added?

Also, importing the Wyrmfisher from malakim+ would be nice

I'd posted about the lack of Herne in the bug thread a little while back. He's great, seeing as your main hero comes with Divine Essence.

How about an early hero for the Sheaim too as I almost never get far enough in my slow speed games to get the Black Dragon?

Civs with early heroes get a real boost...until he is obsoleted. Ex. Gilden.

Civs with late heroes often don't get to see them.

I suppose the best civs are those who can build a semi-powerful hero mid-game.

A long time ago , when war chariots still were in FFH, Herne didn't exist because his model was used as a replacement for the war chariot for the kuriotate.
The war chariot was removed but in order to keep the model the FFH team introduced Herne, as I would assume.
But FF has war chariots, which could use the Herne model, so there is no actual model or Herne now.

But I agree a mid-game hero for both would be great.

maybe the Sheaim could get a unit called "Harbinger" that cause increase of AC by level/2 of defeated unit?

Or if it was Arcane, it would be able to have summons that increase AC by 1 on summon and could stay 1 round per kill (they would all get blitz) and if it gets to level 4 it would become permanent?

Or it could simply be an upped version of an adept with "Hero" promotion (vanilla FfH2) with 1 extra strength with upgrade path to Archmage?

I imagine some kind of weak priest (0), with affinity for Death, Entropy, and Chaos. He could start with Channeling III, Command I, Death I, Chaos I, and Entropy I, and every kill increases the AC (as if he were holding War).

This thread was supposed to be about herne.

An early sheiam hero would be cool, but why not go make another thread for it.

Touchy touchy?

I think the Kurios could probabaly use the early-game unit though, just cause Eub comes sooo late.

Herne isn't really early game, but yes, I think he's very useful. Doesn't rely on getting several endgame techs.... and seeing as they can only build units at 3 different places, that's not that bad a thing.
