    Age 66 potental changes

    Potential changes thread can be found here. Please remember to comment constructively and bear in mind that numbers are easily tweaked, core concept feedback is more what we need.

    - 20% battle gains on humans. Is that same effect as guard stations, otherwise its spaced like its a penalty but doesn't make sense to have minus gains pen on an attacking race

    Avian - prolly too strong
    Dwarf - Is what is it.
    Elf - meh
    Faery - strong
    Halfling - I think +50% TPA is a little much
    Humans - -20% Gains is too much.
    Orc - is what it is
    Undead - is what it is

    Merchant - meh. Even with ToG
    Sage - is what it is
    Rogue - is what it is
    Mystic - is what it is
    Warrior - meh, wouldn't pick it for anything really
    Tact - Continues to devalue Avian
    Cleric - still what I'd pick
    War Hero - Still incredibly useless

    Avian - Very Strong
    Dwarf - About as always
    Elf - Boring but about right.
    Faery - Improved over last age. Strong.
    Halfling - Can be an attacking race now. Strong
    Humans - Penalty is too much -10% gains would be better.
    Orc - Science hit is too strong -15%?
    Undead - Strong.

    Merchant - very Meh... Add +5% income or something.
    Sage - Strong choice
    Rogue - as always
    Mystic - as always
    Warrior - Not inspiring.
    Tact - Go to attacking personality
    Cleric - Strong Choice
    War Hero - You guys have got to add something to make this remotely a reasonable choice. Make their dragon attacks do X2 the damage to the dragon or something.

    The changes appear to have toned down a lot of things except for OME.
    Human +20% and Warrior +20%...that's a LOT of OME @_@
    Human elites are basically 7.2/3 with just their racial OME boost. This is fine IMO, kinda fun!

    Overall I really like the changes. I'd like to see "new" things at some point, but I'd say this is a much more balanced age than the previous age. Faery looks mega fun with the +1mana/stealth. Halflings...weird but cool. Might actually see some halfling clerics?? :p Will be back for a more comprehensive review, but I think the changes are pretty good.

    Making ToG no longer racial is awesome. Still would like to see CS go to personality only.

    Avian looks playable. Ambush immunity changes dynamics.

    Faery looks much better especially without ToG. But I am sad to see the stealth/mana bonuses gone from other races.

    Elf needs something more. Invisibility is a gesture in the right direction but it's still out-pizzazzed. At a minimum give it the defensive casualty bonus back, but I'd prefer to see something else.

    Halfling strong but with defensive challenge like the good old days. Maybe consider TW or GP or something along those lines, even if it means nerfing the TPA bonus or making the elite 400gc or something.

    Human is weird again now. Not sure what to think about it.

    Mystic gets plus mana even out of war now?

    With the OME generosity this age, it might be worth considering more generously distributing defensive boons like GP.

    Avian is strong, but keep in mind that not all plp will make use of attacking times. As plp usually shy away from it. So avian can be a bit stronger than usual. Opposite from Hummies or UD if they are too strong.


    I like changes, much better than this age. With OP Humans and Faeries.

    Halfers need a def tweak. What would giving them +1 def spec do to the dynamics?

    They alreyd got BiIG TPA bonus and pop bonus and +1 off spec. That more than enough. Tpa could be dropped to 40% though.

    Take away the +1 off spec and give them +1 def spec. Getting chained would make the tpa bonus irrelevant.

    1. Once UB +1 off spec is huge.

    2. It allow playing halfer as AT.

    I like that change

    Out of all the tweaks, Elves are looking rather weak now and I agree that they need something more than Invisibility.

    Realistically, giving them Amnesia back would make them more playable as a t/m.
