I appreciated the info/impressions you shared with us concerning the use of the ThunderBombers in SP.

Would you share with us your experience with other units like the Battlefield Ninja for example? How good is their stealth capacities? Are they good in melee situations? what kind of armament do they use? Thanks.


Beware, if you answer this one, you well get questions for other units http://www.totalwar.org/ubb/smile.gif

What about the Kensai have you balanced them better than the Monks were?

May as well start a thread to ask questions for Target to answer. http://www.totalwar.org/ubb/smile.gif

Target, I've got this cheese plant in my room. While it's not dying, it some a bit droopy of late. Am I under/over watering it, or perhaps it is not getting enough sunlight in my room (it's east facing)? And finally, do I need plant food, if so, is the expensive stuff worth it?

Sorry guys, my retarded sense of humour rears its ugly head. http://www.totalwar.org/ubb/wink.gif

Kuma The battlefield ninja are armed with the same weapons as samurai archers - a bow and a , althought they're better at using them than the archers are. They don't have any armour, so their only defence is a surprise attack. They are good in melee situations, but because of their relatively small numbers and lack of armour, they are unlikely to survive an extended attack. Theire stealth capabilities are akin to units hiding in forests, except they can hide anywhere, including out in the open, and they can move at a walking pace without being revealed. If an enemy unit gets close enough to them they are discovered.

Phoenix The Kensai is a difficult one. I think they're OK in campaign mode because of the amount of effort it takes to produce just one. In a straight multiplayer "last man standing" battle, things could become a little unbalanced. The best bet is to avoid getting into melee combat with them - stand off and hit them with missile weapons. They're slow moving, so it's not too tricky to fill them full of arrows while they're trying to catch up with you. You're in trouble when they get close enough to swing their sword at you. High level Kensai will be a handful because they can soak up damage without falling over.

NinjaKilla Cheese plants are one of those tropical plants that do well in low/artifical light situations. Place it by a window that'll provide it with a small amount of direct sunlight at some point during the day and that should be good enough. 24 hour lighting helps it grow, but you may find it difficult to get any sleep with the light on all the time. Water it thoroughly (allowing the soil to dry ) during growth periods, and keep the soil barely moist during the winter. Don't overwater - this is how most plants get killed. The roots need air to grow and you might suffocate the plant with overwatering. If you're using good soil, don't bother about plant food cos it should contain all the nutrients the plant needs. Oh, and be careful if you have any housepets that might eat the plant cos the leaves are poisonous.

Ah, you were being sarcastic....

Well Target that was a worry for the MP players. Are they going to be really expensive so you cant have 16 units of them.

I really wish there was an option for these guys. http://www.totalwar.org/ubb/smile.gif
