Trivia

Gunnar is one of three heroes with Logistics as a specialty, the other two being Dessa and Kyrre.

Specialty

Note that the Logistics specialty bonus is affecting the Logistics secondary skill bonus, not the total amount of MP. So the bonus only applies if the hero has the logistics skill (which Dessa/Kyrre/Gunnar already have unless edited out through map editor).

Example: Hero with 11+ monster speed will have 2000 movement points. With expert logistics, hero will have 2600 movement points. Level 20 Dessa/Kyrre/Gunnar will have 30%+(30%*0.05)*20=60% (20%+(20%*0.05)*20=40% in Horn of the Abyss) additional movement points, meaning 3200 (2800 in Horn of the Abyss).

User commentary

[Show user commentary] [Hide user commentary]

Like Kyrre for Rampart and Dessa for Stronghold, Gunnar's ability to increase his movement as a special ability makes him one of the most ideal heroes in the game, as having high hero mobility is usually among the most critical aspects to victory.
