Joining is a feature where a stack of wandering creatures are willing to become a part of hero's army for free or in exchange for gold. Whether or not the stack will join depends on several factors, explained below.
Calculation and factors
| Mood values (M) | |
|---|---|
| A value that is set by the map creator for each wandering monster. • Default level is 'Aggressive'. • If the M-value is a range, a random number is picked at the beginning of the battle. | |
| M | Aggression level |
| -4 | Compliant |
| 1–7 | Friendly |
| 1–10 | Aggressive |
| 4–10 | Hostile |
| 10 | Savage |
| Sympathy values (Sy) | |
| How many of the hero's creatures are from the same creature type as the wandering creature (upgraded does not matter)? • Exception: Water/Ice, Fire/Energy and Earth/Magma Elemental upgrades count as different types. | |
| Sy | Sympathy description |
| 0 | Zero |
| 1 | At least one |
| 2 | Over 50% of the hero's creatures |
| Strength values (St) | |
|---|---|
| A value based on the relative strength of the 2 armies (See equation for 'k' to left). • '*' means rounded down | |
| St | k |
| 11 | k ≥ 7 |
| 2 × (k-1)* | 1 ≤ k < 7 |
| -1 | 0,5 ≤ k < 1 |
| -2 | 0,333 ≤ k < 0,5 |
| -3 | k < 0,333 |
| Diplomacy values (D) | |
| The level of the Diplomacy skill. • Add +1 if playing on Easy difficulty and not having Expert Diplomacy | |
| D | Diplomacy level |
| 1 | No Diplomacy skill |
| 2 | Basic level Diplomacy |
| 3 | Advanced level Diplomacy |
| 4 | Expert level Diplomacy |
Possible Creature Actions
C < M → Creatures will fight
- C is the Charisma value (see equation below)
- M is the Mood value (see chart on right)
C ≥ M → 3 possible outcomes
- Stack will join for free if Sy + D ≥ M
- Stack will join for gold if Sy + D + 2 ≥ M
- Stack will fight if Sy + D + 2 < M
Supporting Equations
C = St + D + Sy
- St is is strength value (see table to right)
- D is Diplomacy value (see table to right)
- Sy is Sympathy value (see table to right)
k = H × Hero army Strength / AI army Strength
- H is hero strength value (see equation below)
- NOTE: The army strength is the sum of AI creature values.
H = √(1 + 0,05 × A) × (1 + 0,05 × D)
- A is the hero's attack skill value
- D is the hero's defense skill value
