Scout/War dog IMPLEMENTED

[StormSaint373]

The scout and war dog cannot go into woods.

They are animals...

Can this be fixed?

[Stratego (dev)]

it was always - intentionally - but i dont remember why... (maybe was a too cheap and fast scout?)
shall we let them? others opinion?

[LordOfAles]

Yes, please do. It doesn't make much sense and no one really uses them that much.

+1

[Stratego (dev)]

ok, please Endru make it in next pack -thanks!

No. It will weaken hiding units that cost more turns(eg. ranger,assassin).
Also, more players will use scouts instead of using forest sentry/scout bird...

Maybe this would work:
"trnWalkTerrain":[
{"terrainType":"TERRAINS_PLAINSWALKABLE", "modifier":1},
{"terrainType":"TERRAIN_WOOD", "modifier":0.4}
],
I'm gonna test if it works that way, but the idea is to have scout move only 2 in forest.

Oh, and there is idea about forest sentry upgrade in http://www.ageofstrategy.net/viewtopic.php?f=6&t=5484

i like the idea of lower move on woods.

Plz, save that idea for cavalry.

This is a dog. An animal...

They shouldn't be penalized especially when they can be 1 shot by most other units.

[Stratego (dev)]

ok but he is a stealth finder not only a cheap norma unit. needs to nerf something - and also, sniffing around for spies in plains is easier than in woods so it is ok being slower.

Most ranged units needs 2 shots at the start and after upgrade, not even fully upgraded arbalest one-hits him, neither hated poison archer (needs archery 1).
It's not actually nerfing him, just moderating boost change a little.

Very well...
