Found out why Aragonese generals die so retardedly often

[TheLastPrivate]

...they have 1 hit point!!!!!!

No wonder my general dies to some highland archers.

[Landwalker]

That's odd. According to Honga, they have two. I don't know if that's a typo on that site, or if perhaps Real Recruitment or BGR 3 changed that statistic.

Cheers.

New RR1.2/RC1.7 gives generals only 1 HP.

[TheLastPrivate]

Just checked EDU and all other generals have 1hp, even the mulism ones..
Hmm, I guess I just had bac luck I guess.

[Alexios Komnenos]

Just 1 hitpoint? I'd prefer give them worst stats and keep them the 2 hitpoints. Those guys are the best warriors of the country, the game should represent it!

[Notimeforaname]

well they are free... and they do kinda kick ass... plus they're free...





did i mention that they are free?

[Skooma Addict]

lol. Odd?

[eternalsteelfan]

This is nothing new, might be a vanilla Stainless Steel thing, actually. If not I guess it's RR RC.

[Vince Noir]

Just feed them carrots, trust me.

[Skooma Addict]

Just feed them carrots, trust me.

Carrots can't solve all of life's problems Norman.

Perhaps you can mod them to have two Hp. Question is, would it be save game compatible? If not, then I guess your stuck with your average joe generals.

[Notimeforaname]

Changes to the EDU and EDB are save game compatible.

Excellent!

'Vanilla' SS has 2HP generals but smaller unit numbers.

RR/RC has 1HP but larger units.

'Vanilla' SS has 2HP generals but smaller unit numbers.

RR/RC has 1HP but larger units.

Imagine a world where they have 2HP and larger units. Do it! Imagine!

[Point Blank]

Step away from the Skooma pipe.

[Skooma Addict]

Never! Oh, perhaps you are right. Very well.

Ehem, uh, I wonder though, why were they made so weak.

[Point Blank]

Because when they were 2HP there were about 2 million threads complaining (correctly) they were overpowered. With 1HP they have slightly boosted stats compared even to 'Elite' units and increased numbers, but cannot be used as bulldozers/tanks as they can with 2HP. They were especially unbalancing in early era; in later eras with AP weapons, pikes, polearms, crossbows etc its not such an issue.

Search on 'overpowered generals' you will likely find plenty of reading material!

It appears with this mod there is always reasoning behind the madness.

[Point Blank]

Well sometimes its the other way around.

[Skooma Addict]

Sometimes I encounter, anomalies, but for the most part the Steel that is without Stain is fairly balanced, however, sometimes it can be too balanced for its own good with a slight pattern of redundancy of unit stats between factions but this mod is still #1.
