What does a general's health have to do with anything? Does this make him die easier in battle? After having one of my princes killed, APPARENTLY by his FLEEING Turkman counterpart, I have begun to wonder about this. I think my guy might have had one or two vices that could have lowered his health.

All units have 'health' attacks do decimal damage to 'health.' 0 health = dead.

When people die stupidly by routing enemies etc. Just think of it as falling off the horse.

Sometimes it works the other way around.
I had an army coming towards me and my first (small) volley of arrows killed there general ~:cheers:

MTW, like DnD doesn't roll for Bullet Time.

So...

If you want something dead really fast, get 4 longbows to fire on the same target. That is guarenteed deathage.

During the Joan of Arc campaign I killed the general with a catapult volley before I breached the walls!! ~D ...What a waste!

P.S. The chivalric foot knight are a real pain in the :furious3: in this battle. I have huge casualties by them and I don't have a unit specialised to their slaughter.
Any suggestions? :help:

if i remember correctly each units have 1 hitpoint not health if u lose this hit point u die. the way i understand MTW there is no "damage" but the attack,defense,armour values are used to calculate if there is a sucsessfull hit or not. if it sucessful the soldier dies.

generals,princes and kings have more than 1 hitpoint so can take a higher number of hit before they die. some v&v's add to this or reduce this

you can find more info on this thread at the .com site

You can hear the horses die when a general with more than one health gets hit, of course you can also hear the horses die when a dismounted knight gets killed.
