Best critical ever!

mmmm, what leet troops made that 1337 ?

A stack of 1800 Sprites with Anga's Ring equipped can do up to 18,000 damage on a crit.

Heh, I have "show amount of dead units instead of damage" on so I never know unless I check the log (Would rather know how many died than the actual dam) but it's nice to see hundred of mobs splatter from a +3 morale crit.

Those sprites must hate ancient vampires

how do you make it so that it shows how many die, Saridu?

Theres a line you add to the config file, found it as soon as the game was released, you should be able to search for it on the forum. It changes the floating numbers to number of units killed.

1800 Sprites is about 15000 leadership I think. That's level 24. I guess by the end of the game I could have over 2500...

Check the critical in my signature.

Yep, that is definitely the best critical I've seen. I was getting around 20,000 quite regularly but no more than that. This just proves what I've been saying for a while now - Sprites and Lake Fairies are the best direct damage unit in the game. I'm interested in how you got over 40k damage. In my games I thought the upper limit for damage was 10 per sprite, i.e. 2000 Sprites = 20,000 damage. Did you have more Sprites than this or was the attack modifier even higher?
