Technically, GPL material is also "copyrighted", isn't it?

Just increase the number of attacks, decrease the damage per attack, and keep the total damage the same for each unit. You'll have the reduced luck factor you are looking for.

I thought about this dynamic hit rate system. Here's my version: Each strike result will modify the chance of hit to its following strike. the formula is if the strike hit, the chance for the next strike of the same unit will be: nexthit% = currenthit% - nativehit% / # of strikes if the strike miss...

At which point did you lose all your high level units? You are seven scenarios in and if you recalled them all in the last scenario, where are they now? Did they really all die? How many did you have to begin with? Here are all my units above level 1 at the start of each scenario. Scenario 1 - Gerr...

I guess you could send them an email? Or use a proxy or anonymizer if that doesn't help.

Is there a way to beat Into the Depths without having any high level units to recall? I recalled quite a few units in the previous level, so I'm wondering if I can beat it without going back and beating the previous level without recalling. Or would you guys say levels are generally unbeatable witho...

Ahh, I see. That makes sense, thanks! I guess outlaws are purgeable too, then.

Hi, I'm playing through through this campaign and really enjoying it. :) However, on the fourth scenario "Vale of Tears", I'm perplexed by the word "cleanse", and I can't seem to find any direct mention on the forums of what exactly is meant by it. What exactly does "cleanse...

First, if it's from an official campaign (Or The Dark Hordes, which was once official), the Wiki page has many walkthroughs on those scenarios. okay, the link that elvish pillager gave to the wiki takes me to a page that says MainLine campaign. the page cannot be found, you can search for it or edi...

Well, having the player pick them would be too easy on the player, although it's a possibility. Making the player wait introduces a little bit of extra strategy and planning. Though I might end up going with letting the player pick. Possibly, but the argument that making them wait involves a bit mo...

- Chance to hit: A global "chance counter" starts at 0. Every time an attack is performed, the percentage to hit is added to the counter. If the counter reaches 100 or above, the attack succeeds and 100 is subtracted from the counter. Otherwise, the attack fails. Predicting what to attack...

And it doesn't take into account additional traits that are unit- or species-specific, such a fearless and dextrous. I have an idea how to take this into account. Since there are 10 possible combinations when a unit has a 5th trait, make every other unit that is recruited have the special 5th trait...

You're welcome to fork the engine and implement such modes yourself. However, the devs like the luck the way it is. It has been worked and reworked, argued and re-argued far, far too many times now. You should be aware that suggestions regarding changing luck in any way shape or form are generally ...
