This ability essentially renders far seeing useless though as an invisible unit is able to easily scout a lot more than the patch of ground shown by far seeing. The clerics other ability invisibility also allows for a safer playstyle, allowing units to dodge enemies and to attain map vision (at least that’s how I used the skill). I for one, enjoyed the self-imposed challenge of trying to keep as many units alive as possible and the healing spell really helped me in my semi-perfectionist play-style. This is the complete opposite of the cleric’s “Healing” spell which encourages slower paced methodical approaches. With the skill “Raise the dead”, orc players (when they have necrolytes with mana) are encouraged to have a more aggressive playstyle to increase the number of dead units on the battlefield which they can convert into skeleton warriors. These differences although only 2 spells difference can completely change the playstyle and feel of the two factions. The cleric can also cast a Healing spell and an Invisibility spell which turns a single unit invisible for a specific period of time.
The necrolyte has the ability to summon undead skeletons (Raise the Dead), reveal a plot of land (Dark Vision) and finally cast a spell (unholy armor) which reduces a unit’s health by 50 percent and gives it invulnerability for a period of time which then wears off.Īs a contrast the cleric has vastly differing skills excepting Far Seeing which is the direct equivalence of Dark Vision. Whilst the warlock and conjurer also have slightly different spells theirs are not as wildly contrasting as the necrolyte and cleric. Specifically the orc necrolyte and its counterpart the human cleric (which I end up constantly mistakenly calling a priest) have an extremely different spell set. If you were to picture a fight between a human and an orc the orc would dominate in brute strength but the human should have more manoeuvrability and flexibility. Orcs are meant to be muscular brutes with a lot of power but with poorer accuracy whilst the humans are meant to be the opposite. In my opinion these small decisions fit so well with the overall factions. The spearman unit is similar to that of the archer – however the archer has higher range but is weaker in a straight up fight as it deals one less damage. Each unit/building has an equivalent counterpart which has minute differences. The faction of the humans versus the faction of the orcs perfectly depicts this. So before we delve deep into this topic, let me first define what I mean by acute asymmetry with the help of a couple of examples. Warcraft perfectly illustrates how complexity is not necessarily a requirement to build an interesting, unique RTS game. All rights reserved.Hey guys! I’m back with another article on Warcraft: Orcs and Humans! Having just completed the human campaign myself, we will be exploring the beauty and simplicity that Warcraft employs in its missions in order to create two amazing campaigns and factions. A rich soundtrack of classical Warcraft Music.
