Hey my friend,
if the devs want something to be improved they will. I am playing from months with a mod made by my brother who never published it, it was stated somewhere here on the forum, but he quit developing it further because he was promoted at work and no time for playing... He made some special abilities like magic shield, bless or cure, summon bear or others to push the unit to act again at the end of turn after all other creatures but can only attack, not use a special ability again and he tweaked the AI so these skills are used more often. You cant imagine the tactics the AI is using now, casting spells like crazy and making the game much more fun. He couldnt finish the part I am asking about so my hopes were someone to tweak the exe file in this direction because it is hardcoded, not in the files that are with open code.Actually he made the bonuses from items to stack with special attacks but there is a problem when the creature is scoring a critical hit - then the damage done is not correct, it is slightly lower than it is supposed to be, dont know why, neither he, it is exactly one point of damage per creature in the stack lower, but if you add this to the damage than the regular damage is higher than it is supposed to be. Somewhere there is a hidden formula that changes this.
The AI can be tweaked as which abilities the computer uses. And we have to keep in mind that the AI doesnt have the skill level that Amelie has, and someabilities are unique - so you are right, this could be changed only in multiplayer.
When looking at Heroes 6 and the direction it goes, I am really sad that Katauri is not the programmer of it, they did splendid job with KB and only if they are allowed somehow to use cities and buildings in the game, than KB will be rulling.
