Here you go ... this is from an old SG from 2007 played with Warlords ... this unit still had more promos to go ...

Here is a post in that SG. I dont' have warlords installed or I would open a later save.

Quote:Battle Stats:
Units victorious while attacking : 0
Units victorious while defending : 179
Units defeated while attacking : 0
Units defeated while defending : 0

About 170 of those 'defends' were by the same unit.

Best thing about that picture: the overlay implying that Robin Hood has been promoted to 'Ironworks'. lol

I'm now curious: which unit-type can be promoted the most times? I guess we have to include promotions that can carry over during upgrades (City Raider onto Rifles?), as well as the Great General promotions.

I'm not even sure where I'd look to find that information...

I bet you we could fix 1100xp on a FFH unit. What level is that even - 20 is ~250, but they scale up...maybe 50?

Each spell sphere is three promos, 18 or 19 spheres (I forget which), 5 combat promos, spell extension 1/2, Summoner, Mobility, Twincast, Heroic Attack/Defense 1/2 (just off the top of my head). If you go via savant, you can get drill 1-4. There's definitely more, but those spring to mind.

That's minimum 72, and even with 3 free promos I would assume is easily enough.

Sounds like someone needs to build an FFH adventure.

You could easily still end up with promotions after 1100 xp in FFH, especially if you exploit upgrade paths to do something like get melee or archery line promotions on a mounted unit, or discipline promotions on an arcane unit. That said, it's actually pretty easy to run out of promotions on mounted hero units vs. the AI, especially the Hippus hero (thanks to mounted not having as many promotions as most lines + being able to quickly accumulate tons of exp via blitz and lots of movement points.

I like the 1t GW on the choke, but those are some ugly-arsed rivers, BTW! twirl

Too easy to call shenanigans (but difficult to spell it). This was a SG with a heavily modified starting position (for us) map.

I'm surprised at the restraint in not putting a river between the iron and copper tiles.
