Ya I would eat worms in the game if they gave me health. Do you know why? Because it's a game. Games are meant to be an escape from reality. To do things you can or will not be able to do in real life. And honestly did you just compare eating bacon to eating worms? Some strange people on this planet.
I've found the assassin line to be the most OP in the game, especially with a bow. Those crits are ridiculous. Not to mention the dodging.
Dealing with Verga when you don't have the right units is very hard, however, I recently had to deal with an out of control Verga while playing Tarth and I ended up slaughtering his all juggernaut armies with nothing but archers and my 2 assassins champions with bows. I had his entire armies dead on the tactical map before they could even reach my troops. They have a lot of hit points but they have no defense. I'm pretty sure I would have been crushed if i was playing another faction
Oh Curgen's volcano, how I love thee.
I had something like this happen with a dark wizard army that was attacking one of my towns because he got displaced. There was no way I could beat him, I had no way to disrupt his spell that would 1 shot my entire defensive force. So after 3 reloads and manual tries of trying to kill him I decided just to see about auto resolve and to my surprise it won the battle on the on the first try heh.
I'm newer to the game, and to my surprise while playing last night I had a champion crit with an air spell, I forget the name but it teleports you to a location and does damage around the character. Was pretty cool since I didn't know spells could crit.
Ya but being new to the game it's a painful experience finding out what you can handle and what you can't. (sup dark wizard that said weakling and killed my noob army in one shot hehe) Ya maybe I'm bad but oh well, it doesn't change the fact that this mechanic is too punishing.
They really need to look at this. I downloaded the game a few days ago and been playing and it's just infuriating early game when your hero dies and gets a horrible injury. I basically ragequit or reload at that point. Of the weak early enemies, wolf packs seem to be the worst enemies that can just gib a unit on you because they cast berserk and then run across the map and smash the same unit. I have heard you can get a potion or something through quests, but this is way to random
