Blade Technology

MithicYort

So for units that use two blades, will this technology increase their attack by two? I'll paste how it currently reads below.

"The first combat technology increases the damages dealt by blade weapons, each level in this technology will increase by one the damages dealt by all units using bladed weapons (arrows are not considered to have blades)."

Whether units with two blade do, or do not get 2 points to their damage, it may be worth adding this detail to the game description.

Thanks!

I don't think it should. It's pretty definitive the way it's written. It specifies "unit" is getting the buff, not the blades getting a buff. Just like for bow units that use 2 bows (elf unit) won't be getting double bonus for having 2 bows. If we altered that game logic to give those units a bigger buff we'd need more discussion on overall game balancing for units and attacks/defense for all races and various possible modifiers n buffs.

Lord Thane Excellent, thank you for the explanation! I definitely don't think it should be for each blade (axemen getting +4!? eeek)

The runner description says they're SO FUCKING FAST that they do some axe damage in short range.

Confirmed SB affects their short ranged too?

Yes but is it affected by sharper blades? Remember how fucking fast they are, they do axe damage in short range.
