how about the abbility to be invisible to your enemy even when they are not in a forest or in the woods.(best if you recruit the unit then give it temporary invisibility (for 3 turns) immediately after the unit is recruited.) :mrgreen:

Abilities are being collected in this thread...

It's easier to search for something later on if the thread's subject tells you what the posts are about, so grouping everything together might not be a good idea.

I second what Kestenvarn said. As for being invisible when recruited - what type of unit would have this feature?

The thread exists. The idea, not so good.

I changed my mind.... One page trial. You know the drill. If by page 2 I'm still unconvinced, it bites the dust.

Of course, we're hastening the death of this thread by making posts that do not convince our dilligent moderator.

For the most part, I'm against this idea, but on units such as thieves, scouts and the like, I can see them having an ability like this where it would give them time to sneak around the enemiy to outflank them subtly, but you could just make a thief alternate upgrade and give it ambush ;) or as AMLA.

I would say when recalled as well though, or else completely worthless for anything but MP

Is it possible to modify Ambush so that it works on terrain other than forests? I could see that being useful.

Yes, we have submerge now too for example. Check out data/abilities.cfg. So this feature request is rather mood as it is already possible. (except that it's not immediate after recruiting I believe)
