Pike like unit - Not an Upgrade - Needs a new name

[DoomCarrot]

Lol

[Hardeep]

What? You were the one who made fun of the name "billman" in AoF's dwarves.

I mean, I'm personally fine with the name billman or bill halberdier, but I don't have any preference.

Seriously though, what makes Bill so much better of a halberdier than joe or smith?

Bill is the weapon mate. Joe & Smith could be the men wielding it tho

This could also be used for the English, in Nations.

[DoomCarrot]

Good point Disco, then we could have longbows and this for english, making the nation more viable.

[Alexander82]

Longbowmen are in game but they aren't a national unit. We might change that if Daniels gives us the ok

[Stratego (dev)]

yes, longbow can be one of English unique unit.

[Alexander82]

We might think about some restyling and some pump-up of its stats (as far as i can see right now there is no point in training longbowmen once you have crossbowmen, that it might be accurate from an hystorical point of view but it is not great for game balance.

[DoomCarrot]

If we reduces longbow to 2 turns in nations, then it would basically give the english free crossbow tech.

[Alexander82]

That might work then

[Disco]

Yeah thats great idea DC

[LordOfAles]

Name: Trilancer

Hp +6
Attack +2
Armor +1/0
Researched at Barracks
Cost: 6


This unit is made to balance the Cavalier upgrade

[LordOfAles]

+2 hp added

[COOLguy]

Where is the player color on the image?

1) did not check stats at all so no clue if they are balanced
2) why do we need this upgrade?

[DoomCarrot]

I think thisnis only needed if cavalier is added as well.

On same place as halberdier, but will be more noticable if not pink

Dc is right, only if we agree on cavalier

[Enemy of LordOfAles]

Mmmm........

We have 2 swordsman upgrades, why can't we give poor halebardier it's upgrade too? I like it.

[Puss_in_Boots]

Halberdiers are already good enough as they are.

[Belfry777]

yeah, they are like invincible to any horse unit! maybe It would be a infantry, like a gate house guard!!

[makazuwr32]

Currently they don't need another upgrade as i see because with all upgrades they have 10 damage and 2/2 armor.

They can one-hit-one-kill almost every mounted unit exept elephants and elephant archers.

Or you want unit that can one-hit-one-kill every unit in the game? IF yes, then use assasins.

[Belfry777]

Yep he said it

[godOfKings]

may b the tech reach makes it imbalanced?

[Belfry777]

yes "gok", the implementation of this unit would tip the whole balance of aos, this unit has the power to kill any horse unit in almost one hit and elephant in two!!

[Czarniecki]

Yes!!!

[Belfry777]

How about going over to the post "Gate house guard" that post needs a picture.

[COOLguy]

Merged this topic and I think it is accepted now

[Belfry777]

which one did you merge it to?

[makazuwr32]

There was another "Halberdier upgrade" topic with exactly the same name i think.

Also please remove "Accepted status" because 1. There is no agreed stats. 2. this will dramatically change balance in the batlles "Cavalry vs anti-cavalry"

[godOfKings]

yes for one i dont like it at all
