Race Comparison Sheet.
11:13:57 Jul 29th 05 - Lady Ppdpls:

Just my assessment of the strength of the different races in different areas:

 

Military

Magic

Economy

Humans

Elf

Orc

Dwarf

Feel free to comment if you think I am mistaken. Its only an assessment.

I though it could be good to have it in nice columns so that new ppl can easily look it over to and decide which race to play according to what style of play they prefer.


11:59:20 Jul 29th 05 - Sir Masterlarry:

Thanx very much Mi Lady, helps me.  Only thing I ask is could you please clarify what the dimmer green stars mean (troll = mil & magic, humans = econ, half = econ).  Does it mean they can hit that degree with some difficulty or is it just a glitch and dimmed or brighter dots are all equal ???


12:37:31 Jul 29th 05 - Lady Ppdpls:

The colurs are only for esteic reasons. The number of stars 1-5 is ment to represent their strenght in that area 1 being the weakest and 5 being the strongest.


13:22:57 Jul 29th 05 - King Fordius:

Augh :)

the military of ORC is totally wrong .

TROLL MILITARY --> OWNS ORC MILITARY :)

check the power difference in cost.

and the other problem is
ORC pays upkeep even in allied colonies :)
while the other don't pay any :D

so it's totally wrong :)


14:10:25 Jul 29th 05 - King Froksnirmani:

Gaia are too expensive when it comes to defeating enemy armies later in the game. They can be good in the beginning.


14:31:02 Jul 29th 05 - Viceroy Rather:

too expensive?? do you mean the upkeep is too expensive??


19:15:36 Jul 29th 05 - Sir Riashin:

Yroll magic isn't that good, increasing science for trolls cost tons more now.  Maybe you should make an beginning, middle and endgame chart, because the use of the military and magic and stuff differ throughout.  It's cool though :P


19:16:24 Jul 29th 05 - Sir Riashin:

Also, dwarven military isn't that bad.


19:39:07 Jul 29th 05 - Sir Sezymon:

nice initiative Augh=)

I agree with Ford(believe it or not) that Troll military should be 5 stars and Orc 4 stars. And also that Elf should have only 1 star on economy, elves who go magic sci (you'd be a fool if you didnt) cant uppgrade mining sci before they've gotten magic lvl 9 and that can take quite some time and meanwhile the elves loose a lot economically towards the other races. and i also think that Trolls should have one more star on econ, since they too dont have to wait for peassies to arrive in their cities and that way gain a larg econ faster than elves, dwarves and humans.


20:39:21 Jul 29th 05 - King Fordius:

nah he's talking about all stats general

Orc has 2 get lower star than the troll.
and maybe more other races like dwards has 2 have more stars .

better eco + troops are strong and they don't have upkeep cost in allied colonies .
Orc sucks military wise.

Halfing military have 2 have better stars .
cheap troops and kinda strong :P

elf has strong defensive troops so I doubt
they are a part of the military power thingy .

but there lvl 1 beats lvl 1 orc
and lvl 2 beats lvl 2 orc

so they are kinda strong offensive wise :)

ORC is overrated


20:41:42 Jul 29th 05 - Sir Minigoek:

Troll magic should be 3 stars or 2 even... they can only get to lvl 3...


23:18:08 Jul 29th 05 - King Xoco:

They can't get higher? Ouch, shouldn't have bought lvl 5 as troll then.

There's no magic level limit for anyone.

And i agree with some others, troll and orc economy is better than elves, so raise it to 3.


23:22:31 Jul 29th 05 - King Fordius:

orc economy sucks dude :|
they pay upkeep

as elf you don't have 2 play a mage
as you play with orc you don't have 2 be attacker

so ORC/ELF --> sucky income if you look @ that

UPKEEP/MAGIC BUILD up :)


19:01:24 Jul 30th 05 - Mr. Xela:

i agree that dwarf military isnt that bad considering if you can get thier economy going then their military isnt bad at all.


19:04:27 Jul 30th 05 - Mr. Xela:

also if elves get high military then dwarf should aswell because the only diffrence in their first three units is that their ranged units are slightky more defencive.


19:32:55 Aug 4th 05 - Viceroy Ppdpls:

Ford, true about orc/trolls, but remember orcs have nazzies. Maybe they shoul both have 5 stars.

an just like ford said you dont HAVE to go magic with elves. their ec is just as good as orc/troll.

Xela, elvish first 3 troops are cheaper than the dwarvish ones and the lvl2 troop is much more powerfull. Also their special unit is much stronger than cavemasters.


23:52:54 Aug 4th 05 - Sir Xela:

i wasnt talking about the lvl 5 unit the cavemasters serve a difrent purpose as you know. just like the archmages have their purpose as a stronger wizard.


00:37:50 Aug 5th 05 - Sir Trynton:

actually archmages arent more stronger wizards, they cast slow and anger in battle, other than that theyre just plain military


01:40:55 Aug 5th 05 - Sage Floppy Tankmage:

ppdpls: orcs and trolls have gaia pezzies, elves don't


02:08:58 Aug 5th 05 - Viceroy Katsumoto:

agree with Ford(believe it or not) that Troll military should be 5 stars and Orc 4 stars. And also that Elf should have only 1 star on economy, elves who go magic sci (you'd be a fool if you didnt) cant uppgrade mining sci before they've gotten magic lvl 9????????

wpts tht about? im elf not magic 9 and i have upgraded mining and millions income, that aint poor econ


02:12:35 Aug 5th 05 - Sir Trynton:

what he meant to say was shouldnt upgrade mining until lvl 9 magic, considering how expensive science gets when you upgrade two things


02:18:34 Aug 22nd 05 - Sir Warr:

wat are gaia pessies?


02:21:15 Aug 22nd 05 - King Toberius Amaritudo:

You can train gaias for 25 gold into your city, then release them into peasants. It helps you get peasants faster.


02:22:11 Aug 22nd 05 - Sir Warr:

ok thanks(:

 


04:53:32 Aug 30th 05 - Mr. Sigmacen:

arnt the races suposed to be equal look at halflings and humans.


02:27:30 Feb 14th 06 - Sir Viron:

dwarf is not bad,it should be like 3-5 and halfings some troops dont even have any atack except defence it should be around 2!


02:27:51 Feb 14th 06 - Sir Viron:

dwarf magic is pretty good to!

04:51:38 Mar 3rd 06 - King Leon Ram:

I think orc military is the same as troll military

how did you come to that conclusion?

23:33:25 Apr 12th 06 - King Azaruc:

Dude, elf's magic isn't so strong anymore imo, and elf miltiary is stronger, as is orc economy. Dunno about the rest of the races, but seems like troll mage is quite strong.


23:35:03 Apr 12th 06 - Viceroy Bourne:

heh i have come to the conclusion that aerzel has no idea what he is talking about


23:39:00 Apr 12th 06 - Queen Arien:

at least he tried


11:55:52 Apr 13th 06 - Sir Aerzel:

Well thats my opinion if you dont like it its your problem.


12:00:12 Apr 13th 06 - Lady Iant Aman:

Well, yes, you tried...

But if any new players take that table as a help on choosing their race, they'll end up really surprised.


18:24:38 Apr 13th 06 - Sir Saladine:

I think Elves and Halflings both have a very good atack. I was both and the halfers pony riders are very good.


19:12:48 Apr 13th 06 - Sage Bill Thomas Killman:

halflings have taken a hit with the peasant requirement, halfers have tiny units


20:10:09 Apr 13th 06 - Sir Saladine:

Elven riders are my favorite. ANd their Archmages and spellweaver and archers :)


15:42:00 Aug 28th 06 - Mr. Adder:

woah dude trolls magic is better than that but u is right about the military thou bezerkas rule every1s ass


16:15:04 Aug 29th 06 - Mr. Rodrigo Diaz DE Vivar:

Is this better? Plus Elf magic is still the easeist to get to lvl 9 so....

(Edited by Sir Fafnir 8/29/2006 4:30:33 PM)


04:50:20 Aug 31st 06 - Mr. Twamao:

i doubt that elf magic and troll magic are equal


16:24:04 Aug 31st 06 - Sir Fafnir:

Well it doesn't change the fact that Elves can get to Lvl 9 easiest, therefore you would need less MUs to cast spells, and since most Trolls don't get to lvl 9....


00:09:19 Sep 1st 06 - Sir Azaruc:

I think the dwarf military is a little stronger, maybe ***
rest seems quite correct to me


06:27:29 Sep 2nd 06 - Mr. Gyromaster:

i like dwarf military, it works. its magic, however, is definately correct


19:59:21 Sep 8th 06 - Mr. Hey Gorgeous:

There is no absolute truth about this, so i aswell have made an attempt to describe the pros and cons. Ofcourse it has to do with personal taste alot. The orc economy for instance isn't that bad if you play without beeing in a kingdomand the elf military is very good if youre king gives you the task to man blockers and so on.
