This is the discussion thread for Thorin's Stances & Formations Guide!

Nice
I was making one too
But know mine was waste of time ...

great guide, i never knew that u lost vision when in defensive

great guide
thanks so much

Pr0 as always, Thorin

Swordsmen:

Defensive:

* +25% Armor

* -15% Damage

* -10% Vision

Aggressive:

* +25% Armor

* 15% Damage


there is a mistake
make "-" instead of "+" on aggresive stance

I knew ROTWK stances worked for archers/heroes, but I didn't know they used 1.05 numbers.

That's cool Great guide!

Thanks guys



Ty for noticing

Great guide!

wonderfull guide. Ma friends didnt believe me, that def stance slows cavarly

Awesome guide but i think there are some problems. Im not sure about this but dont archers get NO damage or armor bonus when in any stace i though they got just vision ar auto targeting i might be wrong though.

the other problem i think might be wrong was you said rhudar spearmen cant be in porcupine, but there is a picture of them on the pic isnt that the spearmen?

anyways AWESOME GUIDE!!!!!!!!! plz dont get mad at me if my comments are incorrect. I might of just been misinformed by another person.

Thorin^'s a beast.

I thought that stances didn't do anything in RotWK but auto-firing. But I only played the game like 4 times or so. Then my parents took it away because of being addicted

Good job, Thorin^, I'm proud of our SSM

BTW, Kasma, that spearmen on the pic are rohan spearmen

good guide .

-applause- Nice guide Thorin^

angmarion warrior u got tht game back yet?
if not find out where it is. thn sneak it out every time u wanna play it. once played, put it back




on anoter note, i thought tht stances didnt count aswell, i though agressive was auto attack and defence was not attacking.


but u changed all tht, now i know thy actually like 1.05. i still used stances but well i will probably use thm like i did in 1.05.


ps: if same swordsman (in this case gondor soldiers) fought each other, one in defence, 1 in attack, who would win?

also in one is in def or att, and other is in normal, who would win?

They didn't in 1.04, but they do in RotWK tbh. Here's the stats of archers stances in 1.04:

ModifierList ArcherHordeStanceAggressive
Modifier = ARMOR 0%
Modifier = DAMAGE_MULT 100%
Modifier = VISION 100% // Hmm not sure how this works, is it additive?
End

ModifierList ArcherHordeStanceHoldGround
Modifier = ARMOR 0%
Modifier = DAMAGE_MULT 100%
Modifier = VISION -90%
End

You see, they don't have any changes in both defensive and aggressive except for a slight loss of vision when in defensive. Now look at the RotWK stats:

ModifierList ArcherHordeStanceAggressive
Modifier = ARMOR -20%
Modifier = DAMAGE_MULT 120%
Modifier = VISION 100% // Hmm not sure how this works, is it additive?
End

ModifierList ArcherHordeStanceHoldGround
Modifier = ARMOR 20%
Modifier = DAMAGE_MULT 90%
Modifier = VISION -90%
End

Now they do have an armor/damage bonus/penalty when using defensive/aggressive

Great guide Thorin^

I hoped it was so easy as that. I don't have any idea where my game is hidden. In the past, it was on easy places, like behind the microwave, but since they discovered that I know their hiding place, my parents are much more clever I don't have to worry much though, next Friday I get my game back
(BTW, once they tried to hold me from the pc by taking away the mouse. I just used the mouse of the other pc, and when they came back home, I just plugged the mouse back into the other pc )


And nice explanation, Thorin the INI-expert

what about the spearmen read mt othreer post to see it
