[Savra]

This should be an interesting update. I take it incorporate corpse will be given to all undead siege?

Also is this update to later change the elves cavalry to have unit drops instead of dodges or is that to be a future update down the line due to the 1 hp thing.

[makazuwr32]

No only for wrecking ball since previous ability was crushing some thing.

[Stratego (dev)]

crash was already fixed.

if a weaker "eat corpse" ability.

[Alexander82]

that ability heal 20 hp ti the wrecking ball unit at the cost of a corpse.

If you added a unicorn archer, why did you remove the dryad? She was unique.

[Alexander82]

If you added a unicorn archer, why did you remove the dryad? She was unique.

the dryad have been replaced with the poison archer, the horse archer is a unit that can either be trained or obtained through the mounting ability

[makazuwr32]

If you added a unicorn archer, why did you remove the dryad? She was unique.

Several reasons:
1. Dryad was problematic because she had no upgrades for it and at this stage it was useless unit in even mid game.
2. We needed to put in poison archer. 2 poison units are not required for the race.
3. We are also rethinking concept of dryad (into nature caster). There also would be Nayad, Nymph, Sylph, Oread, Astraid.

[Anchar]

In my opinion, elves are already pretty fast and adding a horse archer is already strong for them.

[makazuwr32]

Well humans and orcs already have mounted ranged units so why elves who supposed to be superior in terms of range combat shouldn't?

Actually addition of mounted archers for elves will make them in terms of ranged combat what they are supposed to be - powerful force that must be reckoned with (and not like that dryad that just was eating production for little to no output in mid-late game).

[Anchar]

I don't like the fact that elves, due to their speed, capture buildings faster, then keep the enemy at a distance by spamming archers, just like the Tatar Mongols. If earlier it was possible to catch them at least with cavalry, now it will be impossible to get them to the already dodging archers.

uh ... well, as it were, that is the meaning of the tactics of playing for elves ... and in all games

[Savra]

Elves mounted units will be losing their dodge actually, if I'm not mistaken.

Because of the fact that they will be getting a different ability were they drop their rider (albeit with 1 up left) on death. So it shouldn't be to bad, also their are some pretty good ways of countering elves archers for example troll headhunter under troll skin upgrade, or the human Skirmisher under what I hope humans will be getting soon but I believe they had a geomancer suggested that can give units stone skin.

Undead already would have the best pierce armour and can counter elves with units like the death knight who is a cavalry unit with good health and defence plus has a ranged aoe fireball attack.

Dwarves have a ton of armour upgrades plus the addition of runes that will come later that offer perma buffs to units (I don't think it's stackable) that can't be disenchanted so that would be good for the ball thrower.

Scaledfolk actually have a few Skirmisher units (new scaledfolk group) and I'm thinking that we could make it so that the lizardmen one can game chameleonic skin as a upgrade that allows it to turn invisible for a while.

So every race will have their means of countering elves archers spam, but not to the point were that special talent of the elves would become useless.

[Anchar]

Yes, perhaps the Tatar Mongol tactics are acceptable to the elves. But besides that they have a strong dodge, and their 2 magic shots wars easily destroy towers. One 2 running archer dodged 6 shots and never died, but 3 who shot at him died, and how do you plan your tactics with these accidents? Thanks to their archers, they destroy about 30 lives from the towers, after which their warmag comes running and destroys your tower with magic arrows.It would seem that you can kill with skirmishers, but you will not catch up with the enemy elf and will only come running to the elven horseman, meanwhile a crowd of elves will kill the skirmishers in a crowd one at a time, chase them with cavalry useless as the elves will dodge attacks and, again, will kill in a crowd one at a time. I played gnomes against elves, I know that the race is not finalized, but I managed to capture 45 percent of the map and build up, as well as pump the armor completely, as a result, the armor did not save the mand they were successfully spammed one at a time before they got to at least 1 archer (all were shields or lancers), what can I say about an undead rider in 8 turns. But I was more surprised that the elf shield in 6 moves is more armored than the gnome, plus his ability to increase armor, plus the dodge makes him a walking bastion through which nothing can be broken 1 by 1. In total, the elves have Tatar-Mongol tactics, incredible doji with evasion up to 6 attacks, powerful armored bastions, magicians, good tower destroyers, which decides the highest attack range, the fastest capture of buildings which leads to high production, good builders that quickly build production.
