I am not understanding this question at all.
I think I will sit down on that one.
DOnt know what the orb would do with Dendroids etc.
His resistance a 50-50 chance.
It's just all a gamble.

Hmmm ... after reading his explanation I would like to add that when I started out answering like that u corrected me Xarfax and said one heroe HAD to be a rampart heroe.
And all heroes had to have three ceatures stacks u said somewhere.
Other then that I would like to congratulate Hubb on thinking about that hillfort and the life arties.
Tricky question this was indeed. ;p

..thats right, and if u look into first part..ull see that Wub calculated with this too...the second part is just for information.
Quote:

Thats right...Gems creature stacks are defined as 12-24 Centaurs, 1 Tent, 3-5 Elves. You cant drain a Demon out of a tent.

..yes good answer from him...but all answers were very good.. not a single one was below average.

...thanks ..and its hard to make a not misleading question without giving already the answer.

Wub's response:
Quote:
If you are very unlucky with your rampart hero, you get Gem in your tavern. Gem comes with a first aid tent instead of dwarves and therefore you can only convert her 12 centaur captains and 3 elves into demons
The question:
Quote:
b) How many demons can i raise as minimum from this troops, when im very unlucky with the amount of the creatures they have with them altough both of them have 3 slots of creatures.
I did not know that war machines (being first aid tent in this case) counted as creatures 
Also, if Gem is max. unlucky she does not get the tent
DISCLAIMER: My aim is not to bash this dude's answer. My aim is not to try to prove that my answer was better (which obviously is not ) Furthermore, it says "the best answer" not "the correct" hmm... what else?
EDIT:
Quote:
When these are upgraded to infernal troglodytes and the health artifacts are equipped, Shakti brings 1200 lifeforce with him (=comment: trog 5; infernal trog 6; +4 from health arts; 120 trogs max; 10x120 =1200).
as he states, regular trogs have 5 life. And I have never seen shakti coming with infernal trogs. And since it is a rampart, I want to ask "how did he upgrade the regular trogs to infernals?"
With regular trogs:
40 trogs, 40 trogs, 40 trogs = (40x(5+4)(40x(5+4)(40x(5+4)=(360)(360)(360) all trogs gathered in a single slot for max. efficiency=(1080)
1080/25=30 demons
30 demons from Shakti
plus the 15 he gets from the rampart hero, it totals to 45 not 49.

..page is updated again and growing...
...also answer to question number 2 is given now and give some very rare infos ...so u might better take a look.
Also Question 3 is still open for less then 1 and half day. Although i thought this question was easy, i gave it the difficulty "normal", but i still havent received any correct answer yet...strange ...so if u take a look and make your guess u may win this question.
If the activity raises im thinking about giving a small prize for the winner. If it gets down...nah dont let me think about that ..
...ok have a nice time.

...yes thats right...your answer was very close..you only didnt know that the aura still works with orb.
But ive to recheck my answer too. It seems that the aura does not work accumulative to the existing resistance bonuses, furthermore it looks like in this case the other bonuses work first and then ull have a 20% chance for resistance. Thats unlike the bonus of the battle dwarfes work, as they work accumulative. Its hard prrove ..so it takes a while.....

..thanks for this reply aculias. I didnt know u had this kind of bad opinion about me, i guess im enlightened now, that was really new to me. As this is the first sub i made i wonder how u come to the conclusion about me being an ass "again".
Concerning the wrong update i made i must say a normal "hello Xarfax1 there is a little mistake on your page" would be enough i think. Instead of this u start an "hey Xarsucks is an ass as usual" thread.
The sub tourney was meant for FUN, like players sharing some knowledge about this game and trying to find the best solution for a tricky question.
Although activity was very low, there were still lots of email in the same style like the post of aculias. I really enjoyed the nice answers from very friendly players like Wub (and some others; i wont make a complete list here), but if i look to the work it makes, the small activity and the very unfriendly answers i get THIS SUBTOURNEY IS CLOSED.

What the hell is going on here?
Did i miss something?
I thought, the idea of that oracle was a VERY GOOD one!
Many heroes-players could join that "game", learn MANY things, show that they know some facts, that others donīt know and have fun while looking for a correct solution of some hard questions.
I donīt see any point, why someone has to send a email to Xarfax with negative speech or telling him, heīs a ******* (deleted by myself )
I have to agree, that i learned much from the posts of WUB, XARFAX or MOTORSCHAAF, although iīm plyaing Heroes now for about 5 years, you never stop learning some new facts.
So what the hell is wrong about this way of "communication and learning", ACULIAS?????
If you donīt like it (or Xarfax), you donīt have to participate. Leave all the others alone, while theyīre having fun with this site.
@ xarfax
Gib nicht so schnell auf und lass Dich nicht von irgendwelchen Weichbirnen von guten Ideen abbringen.
Die Teilnahme war vielleicht noch nicht so hoch, aber es wurden doch stetig mehr. Je mehr HC-Members diese Beiträge
hier lesen, umso mehr werden auf Deine Seite gehen und sich das ganze genauer ansehen!
Keep going!!

Xarfax no disrespect but how does it feel.
How do you think it really feels running this site, while you Martigan & Stiven slam Kitten & Ravyn while they bust thier arse & you bust thier work but heh they pull through.
Tough women they are & you get one slam in & you want to whine & shut it down.
Mayhaps you can apreciate all the crap Mandi (Kitten) goes through when you corner her & I have to get a -QP & over a minute flood report to deal with your friend Andi.
Why dont you just deal with it.

Xar maybe now you understand how I feel when people bash the hard work on MaH. You just got a peice of what I go through except I get it 100 times worse! I will tell you like you tell me.....Get over it is just an opinion! Why are you gonna let one comment shut the oracle down show that you have some balls and get over it and suck it up and go on.

xarfax, i hope u keep ya oracle open as i agree with many others that this is a good source of information for many players. in fact i'm suprised MaH dont have this sort or page on there site.
As far as aculias's comments lol, u know ths kid blows hot and cold and have much trouble making sense of what he says at the best of time !
And as far as ppl slamming kitten and co is not quite correct. in general they r slamming MaH on the mis-management of this season and not personal against any1 person but the whole MaH team, including bailoutschaaf

..well if u want to show me how my threads feel then uve to at least try to do it same style as i do.
As far as i remember i never said kittensucks or ravensucks or any style like this.
If i critizise someone there normally wont be any personal insult in it, furthermore i concentrate on the thing i like or dislike.
For example: Last time i tried to point out that it is useless to start 2 big subtourneys in TOH cause of low activity ...reread it and tell me if u can find any personal insult.
Peeps like U Aculias keep on calling me a german nazi and stuff like this .....
So concerning tough calls from others im pretty used to it and couldnt care less as those peeps have no idea of what they are talking about.
The main reason for closing this sub is the low activity..and as i dont think the activity will raise i closed it.
Thats it.
