Dairy said: Whoa, this project is expanding pretty well and really fast.
Mind a question ? Not sure if somebody asked you already, but this is Polish Forge team for VCMI ,right ? You are not working with/for HoTA and this won't take part of that project ? Might be stupid question, if so I am sorry.
If they were linked to HotA, this info wouldn't be published in this thread imo.
iirc they are different teams, yes. (so there'll be at least two different forges)

We are different teams, but we're using VCMI only because we don't have time to learn how to add new towns to SoD/ERA.

Of course there is. HotA is the best example of that. We're not that good programmists as them though.

HOTA is not ERA or SOD.
And there sources are closed, so even if you were programming, you couldn't do that. If only from scratch.

WoG in general is "illegal", but Ubisoft doesn't really care and didn't suit anyone because of modding, so
what the heck is your problem?

No problem at all. I'm just saying to newcomers, that there is no possibility of this Forge as new town in SOD/ERA.
PS In Russia police can start court cases even without statements or will of copyrighters.

Why do I even bother...

Now it's time for something completely new. Some of you weren't really happy about "cybergriffins". Our team thought that maybe we should change this creature for something more original. That's where the idea for Brain Suckers and Soul Suckers came from. You might know them from Might and Magic 6.
Brain Suckers are extremely dangerous creatures foraging on life essence and can suck out the memory of their preys. Engineers of the Forge were able to tame these wild creatures and use them during battles. Also, while experimenting with them, they created terrifying, two-headed beasts named Soul Suckers.
These creatures cast forgetfulness on advanced level after attack. These aren't the final stats though - they'll probably be nerfed.

they shouldn't be. that's actually really cool. although i can't quite make out the actual creature, and i have no knowledge whatsoever of any of the MM series, so i have no opinion on the creature itself.
EDIT: they can't be worse than the cybergriffins, though. they were beyond lame.

Our testers say that they are too strong. Erasing memory stays, but the rest will be weakened at least a bit.

the erasing memory thing is what i was referring to. that's a cool little perk.
question: you have been showing that there is a set of artifacts for the forge. have you guys come up with the way it will effect the hero so equipped?
i was wondering, because, with my Fear faction, their artifact set will have every Fear creature in the army be able to have a percentage to cast "fear" against any enemies in battle(although the hero's stats will go down a little as well, for balance. kind of like how the Tower faction's artifacts make one stat go up, another go down).
btw, nice job on the level 7 creature. cool as hell idea.

The upgrade really looks imba
Personally I'd try removing "no enemy relatation". The three-way attack sounds cool alone

IIRC three-way attack without no retaliation would mean that all three units will retaliate - and that would kill these suckers very quickly.

I guess you'll just do a plain stats nerf then...

I like the idea. Through 3-head attack is a bit imba with other abilities. And I think they must better get LIFE_DRAIN and MIND_IMMUNITY.
But Cybergriffins dwelling Is not fitting for these creatures, will you redraw it?
And isn't they a bit small for 4th level? Maybe enlarge them to 30%, for example?

what the bleep is "erases memory" ability? Does the creature casts Forgetfulness spell on attack, kinda like serpent/dragon flies cast Dispell and Weakness?

Macron, everyone knows you want to port the whole world to VCMI, but you'd better educate more in other platforms before becoming a blind zealot of it.

Wasn't this video proven to be FAKE like 3-4 years go?
Either way, Bastion is still not released and has been silent for years now. Deal with it.
