Game balance

First post

Elves have a 70% evasion chance on forest.
Dragons have 40% evasion chance on nearly any ground.

Have the developers considering decreasing evlen evasion chance to 60% and give dragons some grounds where they have 50-60% evasion chance? It does feel unbalanced imo.

Someone told me attacking a unit from behind aka stabbing them in the back increases the chance of a successful attack.
Is this true or false?

Dont have examples but you can implement abilities that consider facing.

It might (hopefully does not) appear like a silly question, but im curious after 1.19 the next stable release will be 1.20?
Going from stable 1.18 to stable 1.20 what will be the major changes? Is there a roadmap for people to view?

You should be ashamed of raising drama again. You realize that we can actually see the chat of those games. If someone should be banned it is you. (Though with these two games I leave it at public notice to you)

For reference, even if we decide to ban, small actions do not warrant permanent ban.
