Can't move

Brimsheen · 01-29-2007, 03:50 AM

People will say this is a bad subject but I am gonna post it because I have a question!

Why does the Frost golem not get to move after it attacks? What if you hit wrong guy and want to move him so he stops paralyzing him! Thoughts?

The frost golem can't keep focus while moving.

It's somewhat dumb, but dumb questions are better than dumb plays.

All focus units are like this.

Don't hit the wrong guy.

Problem solved, kiddo.

Well I see what you mean but if you make a mistake and want to fix it... I just don't like it.

You couldn't do that, because then someone will go to attack, it will block, so then they get to take it back.

Sorry for double post but also when anything attacks don't they have 2 wait atleast a turn? Why should they move and turn???

edit: I didn't double post! YIPPY

This is a strategy game, and mistakes are always made, and most cannot be fixed.

And I don't understand your last question.

he does bring up some valid points. when any unit attacks it has the choice to stay put or move afterward, but the frost doesn't. of course this is most likely due to the fact that they aren't "attacking units" per say but freezers that use the attack button to freeze just like the lceric uses the attack button to heal.

plus the only possible use for this would be to break the focus of another unit then run away.

The whole point of the game is mastery of the elements. Wait turns, focusing, blocking etc. are all parts of the game, and in order to be a good player, you need to be able to use them to their fullest.

Focusing is just a part of the game in which, if it does any movement, or turning, it loses its focus. If you were reading a book forsay, and you had to move from the living roomt o your bedroom, would you lose focus? Yes, because you would have to concentrate on walking. Same goes for the frost, it can't focus and move at the same time.

No, could be useful in other situations, like knight+scout vs. lw + frost, where scout is the one getting frozen. Say you're LW has wait, and the scout is in LW's range, it would keep the scout in range while the knight is still trying to get to the frost, making it a knight vs. frost game where frost would win.
