--- Zitat von: Julio229 am 23. Sep 2016, 15:48 ---I thought about it because some factions aren't really that strong on leadership. I know that Banner Carriers kind of fill that role, but these Captains would be useful to give leadership in factions that don't excel at bonuses, so to speak. For example, Gondor isn't in my opinion that strong at leadership. You have Faramir, who is quite great, Imrahil, who only affects fiefdom units, and Aragorn, whose leadership isn't that great, except for the fear resistance. I understand your point, though. Banner Carriers do that, improving the stats, but there can be units that haven't achieved the experience to have them, or maybe you haven't researched Banner Carriers yet. These would be an alternative because they would give a really weak leadership but would affect more than one battalion, so they are that, a weaker alternative if you can't get heroes or don't want to use Fortress spaces for Statues (I, for example, never use them).

Edit: Boromir has leadership too, I forgot!

Banner Carriers are incredibly easy to purchase as every single faction besides Imladris and argueably Dwarves.  So in my opinion, if you want your units to preform slightly better, just go for Banner Carriers.

Also, if the Captains you are proposing have weak leaderships, and every single faction gets them, then what do they change in the grand scheme of things?  If 1 faction is supported by a captain with a 5% damage and armor leadership, and so does the other faction, then they don't really change the outcome of a battle.  Also, if their leadership is too weak, nobody would go for them, and if their leadership is as strong as a hero leadership or stronger, then they would be way too overpowered.    I'm sorry but they just don't really seem like a good idea, and would hurt balance instead of help. 

Lastly, I know this doesnt really on topic, and I don't mean any offense when I say this, but picking Gondor was a bad choice for a faction that is not strong with leaderships.  xD All those you mentioned, plus Beregond's Hero and Building leashership, and the fountain guard captain Denethor can summon at level 10, make Gondor argueably one of the strongest faction for leaderships.  Angmar is a good example, because they do not have even 1 hero with a standard passive leadership, but this is made up for the amount of debuffs and crowd control abilities they have.

I guess you're right. I'd like to propose one of the aspects of the proposal though (I don't know if that makes sense), the characters that haven't got relevance could be implemented as banner carriers that you can get at random, like the Morgul Orc ones, that are based in minor orcs from the movies. Representing minor characters is something that I'd like to see outside of my proposal.

No offense taken, no worries :P

Walküre:
Remember that you ought to use the spoiler feature for long quotations, Julio; it makes the whole topic easier to consult. I already edited your comment myself.

Just a statement from the Moderator. May your discussion go on still and be of proper usage for the forum  :)
