TC_fear You are a Msater at building a Barb with 20+ Immortalities. Congrats to you. You have proved along with other Emperors that you can do this Barb/Immortlity rush on many many maps. Again Congrats! You are one of the Best! You hve successfully exploited the flaws in 3do's ideas of the game, and found how to exploit flaws in many maps. Again Congrats!
BUT.. SINCE you are sooo great and sooo talented in Heroes 4. Why dont you prove this greatness and all this raw talent you strut round with? Play maps like Imperial Prison or Lost in Space.
I admit I am at best an average player. I m happy with that. But it is sooo sad to see you boasting of your extermination powers when you ONLY have the power to build a Barb with 20 Immortality potions and ply maps with flaws that allow such an exploitation.
I would much rather lose in Style then win with such little taste.
But again Congrats, on all your " talent" in the game. Maybe one of these days you can actually ride your bike just as fast without the training wheels.

yes immortalities are allowed in Imperial Prison. However the gates dont start oppening until week 7. So by then a Barb rush can be easily defended.
Basically as I said the map was carefully thought out to prevent such cheesy tactics. Now if Laelth would fix the unbalanced towns issue, that map would be almost Perfect!!

I've been busy of late, but version 1.5 is in the "strategic planning" stange. 
Basically, I want to poll the experts and get a feel for what the people who play the map would like to see done with it. For those who are familiar with it, you'll know that it's possible (but rare) for one player to have access to as many as 5 towns of the same alignment, while one could have as few as 2. Imagine being on the 2 end of a 5-2 equation, with tons of money to build generators and buy lvl. 4 creatures. It would suck! That's Jinxer's objection, and I think he's right. It needs to be corrected.
My current idea is to eliminate lvl. 4 generators in 2 unlinked towns per side. That way, one could have at most 3 in-town lvl. 4 generators but no fewer than 2. This would reduce the luck factor of the map as a whole. As many of you know, I believe in letting some luck influence the outcomes of games, but on a long map like IP, that luck factor needs to be minimized due to the extreme investment of time necessary to complete the map.
Comments on this proposal?

and anyway
i think 20 imm potion + combat hero rush can be stopped on utb... just my opinion. i think you should try to find the best way to stop it, jinx . it will be a victory for you over rushing

great idea laelth, just remove level 4 from unlinked towns, but for your information, i couldn't fully build 3 towns ... money generators aplenty, but skills cost awfully much, and level 4's cost so... not that much money to spend, in my experience

Valky the mere fact that Zud had 50 FireBirds is proof enough that it is possible
Zud is the Jedi Master. So ofcourse Valky you are not able to use the force as Jedi Zud does.
However, even the lowely Jinxer has managed to build 3 chaos towns on IP. And if I can do it then ANYONE can do it lol.

Valky you are starting to make me think you are on drugs!? Please point out which part of my post said anything about Zud having Flaws? If nothing else I said he was perfect lol. Jedi Master = NO Flaws.
So cut back on the booze and drugs and come back to reality.
I am also seeing a pattern. ANytime someone points outs Valkys flaws he seems to fire back with a tacky off the wall comback trying to take the focus off himself. hmmm
