Sandbox on Misfortune page.

===Comments===

Very expensive for no obvious result, as negative luck carries no penalty, and decreasing the chance of enemy luck bonuses by a mere 10% is rather feeble for a 3rd level spell. (It is stated in the game that negative luck will sometimes give half damage, but this is not yet proven, and even with -3 luck I have seen nothing significant happen.)
__NOTOC__

Confirmed by [[User:Cid SilverWing|Cid SilverWing]], there is no such thing as "half damage" through Bad Luck in H3. I spammed -3 luck from Events in my test map and not a single unit suffered Bad Luck when attacking (and I played over 5 minutes in one battle).

===Bad Luck===
It is possible to add script support for Bad Luck if you are playing the WoG/ERA expansion. Simply add the following to an active WoG script or a timed event at day 500+ in your custom map. Note you should use different v variables if 9000-9014 are already used. (Check the Usage358.txt file in your /Data/s/ directory)
You can extract the BADLUCK.WAV sound with a tool such as ResEdit2. For more information, read this topic:

''"The Bone Dragon is almost treated like a level six unit, mostly because of its statistics... that look like those of a level six unit."''

Not really? Bone dragons have (quite a bit) more damage, health and immunities than the strongest level six, not to mention morale penalty to enemy, which is especially useful in conjunction with [[Earth Magic|expert]] [[Sorrow]], [[Spirit of Oppression]], and eventual morale penalties the enemy army may already be experiencing.

Hey Gem. You interested in a casual game sometime? I have a friend with whom I play a lot, and we chat on Skype while playing (to alleviate between-turns boredom); could be fun to have a 3-player or 2 x 2 game ... [[User:Memetics|Memetics]] 11:03, 2 December 2012 (UTC)

Way cool! I successfully added (a version of) the Wikipedia "Unsigned" template [[Template:Unsigned|here]]. And it works!

I'm updating pages from time to time. Just fixed the [[Talk:Defence | Defence]] page (which was simply a meaningless debate on spellings: [[Defence]] vs. [[Defense]].

Fortress

2012-11-01T10:21:01Z

Gem: /* Strengths */

The [[Fortress]] is a Neutral [[alignment]] [[town]] strongly focused on defense.

==Overview==
The Fortresses stand at the edge of swamps. [[Beastmaster]]s and [[Witch]]es are their inhabitants. The army of Fortress consists of deadly swamp beasts specially trained for battles. Only one Fortress creature has a ranged attack, but the other creatures compensate for this with their unique abilities.

The Fortress is commonly considered a weak town. In fact, its cheap and fast building tree, the fast early scouts, and the very good specialties of its creatures make them a formidable opponent. It is not the town for beginners, however.

===Weaknesses===
*Highest level [[Mage Guild]] is 3.

*Some creatures have poor stats (in {{sod}} some stats for [[Lizardman]]/[[Lizard Warrior]] and [[Serpent Fly]]/[[Dragon Fly]] were increased, but overall they are still relatively weak. In wake of gods, this can be fixed by use of some settings making Fortress creatures better)

*With two relatively weak fliers (lvl 3 with 20 hp, lvl 6 with 70 (!) hp) and one very weak shooter, the Fortress has a very hard time invading other towns properly. So Expert [[Ballistics]], Expert [[Teleport]] and/or Expert [[Earthquake]] are a must.

The Fortresses stand at the edge of swamps. [[Beastmaster]]s and [[Witch]]es are their inhabitants. The army of Fortress consists of deadly swamp beasts specially trained for battles. Only one Fortress creature has a ranged attack, but the other creatures compensate for this with their unique abilities.

The Fortress is commonly considered a weak town. In fact, its cheap and fast building tree, the fast early scouts, and the very good specialties of its creatures make them a formidable opponent. It is not the town for beginners, however.

==Heroes==

===Magic Heroes (Witches)===

The following [[Witches]] are the magic heroes of the Fortress town:

*[[Adrienne]]
*[[Andra]]
*[[Merist]]
*[[Mirlanda]]
*[[Rosic]]
*[[Styg]]
*[[Tiva]]
*[[Verdish]]
*[[Voy]]

===Might Heroes (Beastmasters)===

The following [[Beastmasters]] are the might heroes of the Fortress town:

*[[Alkin]]
*[[Broghild]]
*[[Bron]]
*[[Drakon]]
*[[Gerwulf]]
*[[Korbac]]
*[[Tazar]]
*[[Wystan]]

==Strengths and Weaknesses==

===Strengths===
*High defense (Defense themed town)
*With a two-hex [[moat]] and several buildings which increase the stats of the defending hero, a Fortress castle is a real pain to attack.
*The [[Mighty Gorgon]]
*Their swamp native terrain makes them move much faster than any hero (without [[pathfinding]]) in the swamp.

===Weaknesses===
*Highest level [[Mage Guild]] is 3.

*Some creatures have poor stats (in {{sod}} some stats for [[Lizardman]]/[[Lizard Warrior]] and [[Serpent Fly]]/[[Dragon Fly]] were increased, but overall they are still relatively weak. In wake of gods, this can be fixed by use of some settings making Fortress creatures better)

*With two relatively weak fliers (lvl 3 with 20 hp, lvl 6 with 70 (!) hp) and one very weak shooter, the Fortress has a very hard time invading other towns properly. So Expert [[Ballistics]], Expert [[Teleport]] and/or Expert [[Earthquake]] are a must.

==Additional Information==

[[Alignment]]: Neutral

[[Native Terrain]]: [[Swamp]]

J R rates this town's music 5/5 and recommends listening from start to finish.
