Re: Elves Autoscout function overpowered
The point isn't you had to be perfectly optimal to defend. You just needed to do anything at all to defend. Or you can opt to spend 6 actions and have a bunch of Hero-Kings running around fighting instead of an army. That is resource-efficient and action-inefficient.

Re: Elves Autoscout function overpowered
Do leadership units all have "Scout" movement?
Can they be "Blessed" and then move unlimited distance from the blessing to join a battle?

Re: Elves Autoscout function overpowered
The solution is to convert Scout into +2-3 movement not ignore terrain movement rate. All races can build Scout-swarms. You are focusing on the wrong thing. It is the scout ability that is the problem. It is not the Sidhelien units all having Scout.

Re: Elves Autoscout function overpowered
I would note that I have not been sending waves of Irregulars. I agree that that would be more optimal than what I am doing.

Re: Elves Autoscout function overpowered
1 person - no matter how optimized cannot beat 10 people. Ever. Actions are worth more than any amount of efficiency.

Re: Elves Autoscout function overpowered
Any race could have gone all-scout. Archers are marginally better than scouts - yes. But it is not that huge a difference. Karamhul should not be spreading out like crazy. It is not a good racial-strategy. They should go tall - they are impossible to dislodge from a secure position.

Re: Elves Autoscout function overpowered
It just means that everyone goes back to building only scout-armies. A better solution for long-term viability is to make the "scout" function grant bonus movement not ignore terrain movement cost. An all-scout army of any race can move through all terrain for 1 movement cost as it is anyway.

Re: Undefined how to bid - Subversion
I was thinking you subvert the lieutenant to lead the army somewhere else. They are in command of the army - it seems a reasonable action they can take within the rules. But maybe not.

Re: Undefined how to bid - Subversion
If someone leaves a large army under the command of a lieutenant (lieutenant action led war) - it is a devastating spell to use.

Re: Undefined how to bid - Subversion
I think #1 is the most interesting. #3 is second best. I think #2 is boring. You make Subversion simply another route for the person with the most RP to always win at everything. We already have lots of those.
