Posts from Your favorite Fortress hero.

Definitely Ingvar. His warriors become incredibly strong later on.

I like Karl. He has a very easy start. :) And King Thorgrim is not bad either. :)

Karli and Helmar are, in my opinion, the best :)

The best one is Dwarf (starts with good skills).

Wulfsten, definitely Wulfsten!

I wouldn't say they're my favorites, but: Carli, Svea, and King Tolgar.

And why didn't anyone mention Erling? Helmar is also a good name. Although, the Spear Throwers are really tough, especially with luck!:smile03:

Why didn't anyone mention Erling? I also like Helmar. Although the Javelin Throwers are really beasts, especially with luck!:smile03:

Yes, but these beasts turn into hamsters if there's no supply wagon; their strength lies in crippling, but it's useless against undead, if I'm not mistaken.
Helmar is good, but Ibba is also not bad, with her bears, and if you have to choose from a duel, then Karl is the best, as he has all the runes available.

In terms of abilities, I like Ingvar the most,
but in terms of appearance, I definitely prefer all the female dwarves.

No one named Erling because his ability isn't very useful. He has priests, right? They're expensive and appear late. Right now, I'm playing Ibba. I like it. It's worth upgrading the bears, and they become killing machines. I just ran through a map with two stacks, defeating a hundred centaurs. They didn't move once; fear was effective, and I didn't lose anyone, except for three guardians who died from a counterattack (the only one in the battle). It seems that almost all the new dwarven upgrades (if not all) will be stronger. And besides, the old upgrades look a bit shabby compared to the new ones; I'm talking about the appearance. Look at the spearmen. Orange rags versus shining armor... By the way, when the new bear uses fear, its morale and hit points increase by 1 and 10%, respectively. Does anyone know if the effect is cumulative (does it stack)? Or does it only happen once per battle?

Loken
The effect lasts for 2 turns; the bonus duration is refreshed upon a successful scare, but the bonus cannot exceed +1 and 10%.

Helmar, because when using light magic, it also applies the "punishing strike" effect, and Erling (priests).

Well, with Ingvar, the warriors gradually transform into strong units, and their low cost and high growth rate make them very advantageous to recruit.

Svea. Because of the lightning. I like hitting enemies with chaos magic.

What's the point if it doesn't get stronger? Immunity to its effect doesn't work.
