*1: Premise *
*************
King’s Bounty: The Legend is a long awaited sequel to a very popular
cult classic King’s Bounty (1990). The game plays very similar in style,
except for the extremely updated graphics and a bit of RPG elements thrown in
for fun the game play is similar. Heroes of Might and Magic is debated to
being the successor to that franchise, and I'm not going to argue against it,
however this game is more true to the original in that you don't build up
towns and castles you're simply a hero with his army that does quests and kills
stuff for gold and glory.
********************************************
* 2: What this guide does and does not cover *
********************************************
This guide will tell you
1. What unit types are available in the game
2. The statistics of those available units
3. The special abilities of those units
4. Descriptions of those special abilities
This guide will NOT tell you
1. Where to get any particular unit
Reasoning: Many places in the game are randomized to some extent what units
are available there, you might have a knight available in one game or a bear
available in the next. Also places where the units are "fixed" sometimes
changes as you proceed through various quests, or even who you have as a
wife.
2. Walk you through the game
Reasoning: There are many quests in the game, so many that it deserves it's
own FAQ, not to mention certain choices you make will make certain quests
unavailable to you. I'm sure someone down the line with more stamina for
this sort of thing will write one involving a walkthrough.
3. Give strategies for "what is better"
Reasoning: There is no "better" unit, yeah peasants only do 1-2 damage but
a stack of 1500 of them will do 1500-3000 damage. Also if you have a unit
vulnerable to fire, guess what happens if someone who attack is fire based
attacks you? Basically common sense here.
4. Give you a how-to on heroes
Reasoning: Again this is a FAQ on Unit types for your army not for your hero
5. Stats of summoned creatures
Reasoning: There really only are two in the game, Book of Evil and Phoenix
I decided to not add them because there are three levels of each spell and
each level makes the summoned creature a tad tougher. So they didn't make
the cut, sorry if you're looking forward to that, but IMO summoned
creatures don't do much in terms of your army since there's only one of
them in a stack.
***************************
*3: Explanation of Terms *
***************************
In order to squeeze this faq in 79 characters and still make it look somewhat
presentable I need to make certain abbreviations. For each Unit type you'll see
something that looks like this.
--------------- Cost|Lvl|Ldrs| Damage | Talents: Lunge
| Royal Snake | 220| 3 | 60 |6-10 Phys.|
-----------------------------------------
| Att | Def | DU | In | Spd | HP | Crit | Abilities: No retaliation, Venomous,
| 18 | 18 | 3 | 6 | 3 | 52 | 25 | Immune to Poison
-----------------------------------------
| Phys:10 | Poison:80 | Magic:0 | Fire:0|
-----------------------------------------
Definition of terms
Cost: How much it cost to buy one unit of this type
Level: The level of the unit, certain spells/talents have a level range they
will work on. Lowest is level 1, highest is level 5
Ldrs: Leadership required for each unit, so if you had a leadership of 600
you could get 10 Royal Snakes, 10 x 60 = 600.
Damage: How much damage each unit of the stack will make, so 10 Royal Snakes
will attack for 60-100 before modifications are taken into account.
Certain creatures have different types of attacks, physical, poison,
magic and fire. (Ph. Phys. = Physical, Mag = Magical)
Att: Attack rating of unit, your hero's attack rating is added to this.
If attack is higher than defense then more damage will be done.
Def: Defense rating of unit, your hero's defense rating is added to this as
well. If your defense is higher than his attack you'll take less damage.
DU: How many defense points you gain by using the "defend" stance in combat
In: Initiative, which order you move in combat, higher = move sooner
Spd: Speed, how many spaces your unit can move in a given turn, attack counts
as a movement, so the above unit can move 2 spaces, or move 1 space and
attack.
HP: How many hit points each unit has, if 100 damage is done to the above stack
than they will lose 1 unit, with the next unit having 4HP.
Crit: Percentage chance this unit will make a critical hit.
Phys: % resistance to physical damage, 50 means 1/2 damage taken, -50 means 2x
Poison: % Resistance to poison damage
Magic: % Resistance to magic damage
Fire: % Resistance to fire damage
Now there are other types of damage in the game, most notable cold, but those
don't show up on any screen, so simply look to abilities. Also abilities that
"increases resistance to XX" will already be taken into account, so they don't
stack with the resistances shown.
Having level 5 creatures is nice, however the leadership requirements for them
are often astronomically high compared to a level 4 creature, so weigh your
choices carefully when selecting units. Do you really want 3 Black Dragons,
or would you rather have 42 Knights?
Finally, don't neglect morale bonuses, most everything (except Knight) has a
'neutral' morale to start. Certain things affect this, undead & demons lower
the morale of humanoids (unless you have a certain skill that negates that),
certain races prefer to be with their own kinds (Elf, Dwarf, Orc) if your army
consists of nothing but them you get a bonus, finally certain wives and
items also influence morale. For each plus to morale units get 10% att & def
and +25% chance to critical, which can easily make your mediocre army quite
powerful. I've only had +2 to morale, so the equation might change at higher
levels
*****************
* 4: Army Types *
*****************
**********
* HUMANS *
**********
Humans are the defacto "race" in the lands, no morale bonus is given to an army
of all humans. If Mirabella is your wife "pirates" and "robbers" will have
+100% to attack, if Rina (non-zombie) is your wife they'll have +1 speed
and initiative.

boost! However there's not many different types to choose from.

The first race to be put upon this planet, well if you believe the ramblings
of an orc shaman, you don't get to recruit most of these until extremely late
in the game. All orcs in your arm does give you a boost to morale, but
unfortunately there are no orc wives to boost... or would that be a good
thing?

* UNDEAD *
**********
Is there life after death? Well these walking dead would be the ones to know.
Unfortunately no morale bonuses for an undead army, they will however cause
morale issues inside your army unless you have the hero traits to negate it,
or your units have the holiness or tolerance ability. All of these have the
"undead" ability which gives a protection against poison damage, increased
attack at night or underground, a morale bonus if in a cemetery, and an
immunity to mind spells, the downside of all that is you suffer twice as much
damage from holy attacks, luckily only two units in the game have holy attacks
but I believe healing spells cast on undead count as "holy" attacks.

* DEMONS *
**********
Demons are from another plane of existence, they travel to various realms via
the use of fire gates. The dwarfs were unfortunate enough to come across one
of these gates, all the gates lead back to the land of Demonia, where you can
acquire all of the demons. No morale bonuses for an all demon army, however
marry Xeona and you gain a +1 morale bonus. All have the "demon" ability which
gives a resistance to fire damage, and a bonus to defense when fighting on
volcano areas, but a loss of defense when fighting in frozen areas.

* NEUTRAL *
***********
These are all the other creatures of the game that don't really fit into any
one particular category, mostly animals and magical beasts, however a few are
classified as neutral even though they should reasonably be in another class,
specifically the pirates and barbarians, but whatever I didn't code the game.
Since this is the largest group in the game you don't get morale bonuses for
all neutrals, however various items and wives will increase certain attributes
of some creature sub-classes.

**************
* 5. TALENTS *
**************
These are the innate talents of each unit, for talents that do something
numerical, i.e. damage, heal, summon XXX leadership worth of carebears, the
values do stack, so 100 Imps will toss a fireball that does 100x more than a
single Imp. Most attacking talents basically do the damage that the creature
is capable of, or very close, in which case I don't mention the actual damage.
Some talents have a charge value, meaning you can use them that many times in
combat while others have a reload value associated with them, which means
after so many turns you can use them again e.g. Reload:1 you'll have to wait 1
full turn before using it again. Unfortunately I didn't write down ALL of
them, so you'll have to accept the fact this guide isn't 100% complete, but
pretty close, but I'm pretty exhausted from writing this as it is, so updates
will have to wait. Not all talents uses up the turn, there are some which you
can still perform an action, off the top of my head Bloody Pentagram and
Fighting Trance are two that fit this bill.

*7. CONCLUDING THOUGHTS *
*************************
Well this guide is over and done, and I can't be happier about it... about
being done that is :) Seriously this took a lot of work to record everything
in a spreadsheet so I could manipulate it, then to re-enter the data into
notebook, finally to make sure no line is over 79 characters long! Whew.
If you're thinking of writing a FAQ or Guide, let me advise against it. It's
a lot of work, and if your guide doesn't get accepted it'll piss you off like
nobody's business! (yeah I've been there before). Anyways, I'm tired, I
apologize for typos or grammatical errors, unfortunately I was a bit punchy
after writing for a while so things tend to slip through.
I really don't often check my email, since it is an old email it's probably in
every mass-emailer spam list out there, so questions/comments will probably go
unnoticed (sorry, but I don't need my "regular" email to become spam central).
If you do have questions or comments simply write them in the gamefaq forums
with a title that says ATTN SFSUPHYSICS or something, that way I can use the
search feature to find anything by title.
Anyways I'm tired with this, the game is a good feel sequel/remake to an old
classic, long awaited, and I'll finally get to play some more.
