It may be a problem if you could only have white skin on these models. But putting some leather or something similar while maintaining the general look that is a good compromise.

Simple...cut the clan in two and you can both have half.
(Shh. no one tell them this is a copy of the Judgement of Solomon).
In all seriousness boys if you get a few people to agree to be in a clan with you. It seems to me that it is entirely up to them, not you two, who they go with. If someone wants to leave a team to go with their friend then that is fine, if they want to stay with the new leader then that is fine too.
On a side note: If you give someone something (i.e Gifting him the team) you can't take it back later, that is just common sense. However as I said where the individuals end up is entirely up to them...you don't own them because they agreed to be in your team.

Strategus General Discussion / Re: Strategus equipment maths

Do you fit your mercenaries to fill the percentage of each class you needed, or recruit and hope you get a general percentage needed. Or give higher priority to shielders/archers/cav as required?

Strategus General Discussion / Strategus equipment maths
« on: August 18, 2011, 04:16:00 pm »
Hello all,
This is directed at anyone who buys equipment for major battles.
How do you do your equipment maths?
For instance armour does not seem to be much of a problem but ideally you would not want archers in heavy armour near the end or your front-line melee troops in light armour.
Arrows or Ladders seem to be to be an equally hard thing to calculate. Some maps chew up ladders quicker than others because there may be no safe points to place them. Arrows of course your counting on a certain percentage of archers using 2 or 3 arrows (depending on bow / circumstances).
Now I have already been in a number of battles where a lack of foresight regarding the amount of equipment needed has lost people battles.
So my question: How do you do your maths?
Some examples:
1. Just grab a lot of everything and end up potentially wasting materials.
2. Estimate a percentage of troops
3. Estimate and force a percentage of troops. For example you may take 4 archers for every 6 melee. Or 5 shielders per rest. etc etc
4. Guestimate equip levels
Do you find equipment often determines who you sign up for battles or not?
Hopefully this topic could generate some conversation about sensible equipment buying and even some general numbers for 100/500/1000 etc ticket battles.
---By the way I am aware many may not want to speak about this considering it potentially part of their own advantage against others. However it may serve to help those newer to strategus.---
All the best,
Griffin.
