Open letter to Tholal: please unfix Luchuirp worldspell

[Calavente]

not so much.

2mvt is not horrible... remember that they won't be able to get commando.
so 2mvt in ennemy land is 2mvt.
other "living" units get at least 3 mvt (base + mobility + haste)... and leveled up units or raider ones can get get easily a *3 multiplier on that.
so don't fear an "hyper mobile golem invasion"...

further the "no-xp for golem" is already a good counter to their OP ness....

(or you could make that fireballing and mobility are two opposite promotions... like crews for boats).
thus you'll get either a fireballing golem army OR a "fast" (er- "not-as-sluggish") golem army... but not a "not-so-slow-fireballing golem army"...)

best regards.

I'm sorry but iron golems with 2 movement would be overpowered.

In short - with lurhuirp I want to play golems and golems only, not to try "various strategies" , because of - golems are either too expensive, or slow or....

Why's that?

 

[Terkhen]

This conversation makes me want to try playing with a late-game building that gives Golems mobility

Or Raiders...

A much less extreme option would be to give the T4 golems 2 move.

I second A_Moon : why that ?
2mvt, not raider, no promotion str 10 units are so strong ?
I don't think so...

 

[arcticnightwolf]

ok, so i played multiplayer game with fireball casting golems ... quite strong - why the hell didn't i try this earlier ?
though, i lost to cultural victory of lanun

 

[Calavente]

eheh.. slow golems couldn't reach the lanun in time ??

Meeting someone here that isn't stubborn with their views and to try new things is always nice

yeah, I put them on ships, but I didn't manage to get them to lanun in time, because we acted way too late ( and because Sidar Tasunke targeted the wrong city )

... but even then I guess I wouldn't win, because Elohim Aline was probably quite close to altar victory and I was on the continent with Sidar Tasunke with me having my whole army on another continent

also side note: Charadon-Luchuirp (unrestricted leaders) is a bad idea

lol
any thread telling this MP story ?

lol
any thread telling this MP story ?

i'm not aware of any, but i guess if you could convince Tasunke to make one
