gladiators now have 3 HP - why not generals, spartans, etc?

[tai4ji2x]

the increase to 2HP for all former 1HP units was for the archer-fix, right? but i see that gladiators also get bumped up to 3HP, meanwhile other formerly-2HP units (such as generals and spartans) remain at 2HP. was this an oversight, or was it tested as too imbalanced otherwise?

Gladiators are in small numbers the others arent as for Generals I didnt think they needed the increase, Have you noticed any problems? I havent noticed any during the tests. BUt feedback is always welcome. Question why are you going through the Entire EDU looking at changes are you making your own mod?

heh, nah, not really. at least not anymore - after realizing the breadth, scope and effort required of such an undertaking. but i still just enjoy "looking under the hood" every now and then.

i can understand why gladiators have more HP historically wasn't one gladiator worth two roman legionary soldiers thats why spartacus was very hard to put down.

hmm, 200 soldiers (spartans) vs 160 (gladiators). is that really a "small number"?

Spartans have High Morale and also better stats which balance it out. Gladiators are a sideline anyway who recruits them? I dont. lol

Anyway have you noticed any problem with Generals not having HP increased? I havent noticed any problems on balance, Spartans seemed to hold up nice also.

I won't even notice it cause I bribe the gladiator rebellion.

I recruited Gladiators, and they rocks, one unit took one 3 units of Hoplites and a Spartan unit! They lost but held out for ages!

This was during my clearing the Greeks out of Sicily, my Town garrison had at least 2 units of Gladiators and they owned! lol
