Wow... 5/10 from pocketgamer...the review written is controversial and contradicts against itself...you can't win just by spamming! I think they are just siding with Peter with his rushed and unfair preview video. This deserves better, it's deep, engrossing, and requires strategy! Don't fail me TA review!
Yeah that was my only problem - I understand people will have their own opinions, but it sounded like he was complaining about lack of strategy in the same breadth as complaining about losing because he didn't want to use strategy (or didn't want to learn what units did). But that's okay, we're much more psyched about the 5-star App Store rating
Damn, sounds like a great update!! FM again on top of their game. Im loving the game too much to need an update. Glad to hear there will be a Fix for the people experiencing crashes though. Any beta testers wanna show off their character armor/weapons?
Anyone mind explaining what WS or Weapon Skill is? I love my elf but they have a higher WS but the description is archaic. Chance to block attacks or something, like a chance to auto parry? Or parrying with a weapon duration?
Exactly, its an auto parry. Its actually a bit deeper than that, as its a comparison between the attackers WS and your WS to determine the chance. This applies to enemies too...
100% blocks the attack! Its one of the huge factors that offsets Elf's feebleness, at least in melee combat.
And another review, 3.5 out of 5 I'm pretty sure there is some conspiracy going on here. Either that or all the reviewers are completely incompetent. Seriously though... How can you call these graphics ugly? They also made a review of Beast Quest, which sports similar low-poly graphics, obviously it has a more cartoon-ish style to it, while H&C II is very gritty. But the difference in the quality of graphics is quite obvious... Yet, they don't seem to notice it.
Endless is a beauty. Went an hour in endless then died and the game crashed when I tried switching heroes xD oh well.
In base vs base fights, do enemies spawn faster the longer it goes on? I'm on ..I think wave 6 and we've been going back and forth in the middle forever. All my guys are lvl 2, I have more money than I can spend (pro tip: capped at 999) and...can't seem to make progress. Not with a mix of pikes and plainsmen, not with all basic footmen, not with elves, etc.
Try using plainsmen. Or just go and try to tear down the walls by yourself. You have to destroy that skull tower that is behind the enemies walls.
Tried them with pikes...maybe mix them with footmen for sheer numbers? As for tearing the wall down myself, I'm a flimsy elf!
OK, actually, I can sprint up the side, lob a few arrows at the walls for 8 damage each, then run back. This would only take how many hours?
Yes I actually think occupying the enemy with ~20 footmen then spending the rest on plainsmen is the best bet - if you've got that much income make sure to put the plainsmen on autobuild (hold their icon until you hear the bell)
Alright, I'll try it. Any tips on what to upgrade to not have this happen again? Edit: Yup, wall went right down. I feel like an idiot. Now to figure out how to get a good angle on the tower.
Well, you were clearly on top of things (with all those 999 command points), you were just using the wrong strategy.
Get High Amor Piercing weapons with a damage rune if possible. Then time stop and attack walls until they fall. Once your hero is at higher levels level 15 will be the fastest level to farm exp for elf heroes. Either that or get a good bow and destroy the tower from afar before they start coming in massive waves.
