Это руководство по боевым бою торговцев

So you got into a fight? You were travelling on the road from one place to another when several men with sharp sticks held you up and demanded your Herbs, how can you stop them? Хорошо, I have good news and bad news. Хорошая новость в том,, fighting’s not that hard. The bad news is, you have to have guards.

Размещение

Так, to get started there are four quadrants around your cart that enemies can attack you from. When you first load up a fight, there will be red swords to indicate how many enemies will be present. A lone sword means only one enemy, while three swords mean two enemies or more.

Every fighter in your party requires Deploy Time to… хорошо, deploy. Lighter fighters tend to cost less while better soldiers cost more. Try to balance your deployment tactics with the number of enemies in each quadrant, at least try to match their numbers.

If you mistakenly deploy a troop somewhere they don’t need to be, you can click the red X next to their name to undo it!

Движение

After Deployment, you can choose to move your troops between quadrants at the cost of 1 Deploy Time each. It is also in this phase that the enemies’ exact numbers and strength are revealed. There’s not too much to this phase.

Actually Fighting

О боже, the actual fighting phase. This is where it gets confusing. Fighter stats are rated between Security, Оборона, и здоровье.

Безопасность: Урон от атаки. The combined values of all soldiers and enemies are rolled against each other, plus a 1d3 die to determine damage dealt. The excess value will be applied to the other side’s Health as damage, randomly assigned to any combatant. They could all take damage equally, or have one just tank, или что-то среднее между.

• Т. Е.. (Безопасность + 1d3) – (Enemy Defense + 1d3) = Damage Dealt.
• Оборона: Defense value. The same thing happens as with attacking, just the other way around.
• Т. Е.. (Enemy Attack + 1d3) – (Оборона + 1d3) = Damage Taken.
• Здоровье: Damage that can be taken. If reduced to 0, you lose the troop! If a Hero dies, you’ll have to hire them again.

Winning, Потеря, and Mitigating Damage

When no troops are present in a quadrant while there is at least 1 враг, that quadrant is lost and the battle is also lost. Your cart itself will be attacked in this case, and the defense value associated with it will determine how much merchandise you lose. Keep in mind you don’t get the benefit of a 1d3 die in this case, and the combined enemy attack overall lost quadrants is accounted for!

Т. Е.. Если (Combined Enemy Attack + 1d3) > Cart Defense, you lose a lot more goods!

When no enemies remain or you outlast them for 6 combat turns, ты выиграл! When you win, you get a certain amount of random goods, ranging from common to exotic (assuming you have it unlocked in the first place). This can certainly be lucrative, but only when you have free space in your cart before the fight itself!

Общие советы

• Try to keep at least 4 mercenaries on hand so you can be ready for most encounters. В целом, enemies appear with a lone enemy in one quadrant, with the rest appearing in another. Bring a fighter that fights well on their own so they can join the main fight later!
• A viable strategy is to have many guards with very high defense values, so you stall out the enemies and win by default.
• Heroes also have bonus abilities that can directly impact combat!
• Everything that adds to a mercenary’s performance (статистика) increases their rate of pay, including special abilities.
• Certain enemy types are weak to different strategies. It doesn’t hurt to diversify the lineup!
• Auto-Resolving Combat is generally a sure bet if the game gives you a rating of Very Easy. Anything above that has a chance of failing.
• Heroes leveling up will increase their stats, and may also increase their Deploy Time cost!
• While you can go without guards and hope the bandits don’t see you, it’s really not recommended.
