Which Ent do you like more?
Why should these creatures be beautiful? They are ancient, living trees that inhabit the depths of the forest. Therefore, there should be no talk of beauty. These are not birches:D
And what do you think the ranged attack is called? Isn't it shooting? And why would Ents need it? And who would they throw? Cyclops throw goblins... but Ents, dryads? Or dancing? Elven archers? You yourself wrote that elves are the most beautiful and noble race. Why would they resort to such cruelty?
:confused: What are you even talking about... besides shooting, a ranged attack only exists for free cyclops, when they hit 4 squares, and that's what I meant.
Trees, not rotten, arm-and-tooth-filled stumps!!!

Trees, not rotten, gnarled, and toothy stumps!!!
P.S. KonServator - What if it throws something like a log? Taking 10 lives from itself in one throw?



In Disciples 2, they were very beautiful and, by the way, were huge branches...

They aren't that great-looking there. The Ents in the fifth game are very good.
What's really bad is the Ent's speed; the developers messed up with that; a tree can't run that fast.
Please provide a link to the treatise on how a tree should run. I insist.
Don't you remember that elves are the most beautiful and noble race?
Besides shooting, only Free Cyclops have ranged attacks, when they hit 4 squares, that's what I meant.
If Ents also get that... it will be crazy. Maybe then they should immediately entangle everyone with roots at the beginning of the battle? Unconditional attack and shooting. That would be perfect.
It won't be too much if the speed is 3-4.
Except the ones we've made

First of all, Tolkien's Ents and the Ents from the world of Ashan are not the same thing.
But if you're going to compare them, it wouldn't hurt to know some facts about Ents.
This phrase is complete nonsense and has no basis:
Tolkien's Ents moved very, very, very slowly...
Here are some quotes from The Lord of the Rings (taken from here):
He is naturally quiet and gentle, Quickbeam, but all the more fiercely does he hate Saruman – his most beloved rowans have perished under the axes of the Orcs. He leapt from the wall by the inner gate and ran down the road towards Orthanc: they can move swiftly when they will.

They ran up, as it were, and leapt at the smooth black tower – but it was all in vain, of course. Here, it seems, the Wizards have done better work than Saruman. The Ents made no crack in the stone, but only bruised and hurt themselves.

I think the question of the Ents' movement speed is closed.
Горящие реки сходили с ума, пытаясь остаться водой,
Земля пропустила коварный удар, раскрывшись на шаге вперёд,
Взлетел разъярённым драконом Огонь и понял, что тоже умрёт...
Vistrit, please remember The Lord of the Rings... and that same trio...
Damn... I remember it so well...
Tolkien's Ents moved very sloooowly...
What do the Ents of Middle-earth have to do with it? If anything, they are completely different there.
But by the way, the Ents there really aren't in a hurry.
That is, with one attack, it can deal 48-80 damage, which is a lot... But only if you don't reduce the damage by one and a half times... 8-15 x 4 = 32-60, that's just right, considering that the Knights of Isabel, with a speed of 8, deal almost as much... 20-35 to one, 10-17 to the other = 30-52...
The characteristics are different.
I'm not even talking about the importance of having teleportation in such a situation...
Except the ones we've made
I think the question of how fast Ents move has been settled.
Sorry, Mdance, but it's not entirely settled. I agree that Tolkien is beyond dispute (although he's not really relevant here), and I'll agree that evil Ents might be able to run, but did you notice how they start moving? It's fantasy, but that's impossible. They accelerate to 30-40 km/h in a split second (I didn't measure, but still:p) and stop just as quickly after running:smile13:, without even staggering. You know, that's not very natural! :smile42:
I understand, Mdance, but it's not entirely closed. I agree that Tolkien is undeniable (although he's not really relevant here), and I'll concede that evil Ents might run around, but didn't you notice how they start from a standstill? It's fantasy, but that's impossible. They accelerate to 30-40 km/h in a split second (I didn't measure, but still) and stop just as quickly after running, without even staggering. Don't you think that's not very natural!
If such a setting is enabled, I don't understand why anyone would complain.
Bow down and hear our cry,
Our earthly rulers falter,
Our people drift and die,
The walls of gold entomb us,
The swords of scorn divide,
Take not thy thunder from us,
Take away our pride.
G.K. Chesterton: English Hymnal
Just one thing, maybe it's a bug with the mod: the improved Ents don't turn into a pile of logs after they die, as they should, but disappear, leaving slowly falling leaves in the air. Is this happening to everyone else (i.e., those who have the mod)?

From the Ent's perspective, they look very good... (this is about the regular ones):smile12: Ents are the elite defense of the Sylvan army.
