Martok Posted August 29, 2001 Share Posted August 29, 2001 Here is some information I found on the Shadowbane forums. *imagines the Imperial Guards surrounding New OLYMPUS* Dreadflame: On Guards... Guards vary in rank, with corresponding hit points and battle prowess. The maximum rank of guard trainable is determined by the Guard Captain, who starts at rank one and can be upgraded as far as rank seven. Higher rank guards take longer to train. Thus, if all of the guards on your barracks are rank 7, they will take longer to retrain when they die. Anytime a guard dies, the captain automatically begins training a new one, and this does not cost gold... only time (so you cannot bankrupt a barracks between 3 and 6AM by luring guards away and killing them). Guards have to spot a KOS individual in order to attack or raise the alarm. You have a number of options in terms of the orders you want to give your guards. We're currently determining whether to just have these options enabled via the hireling management window, or whether you can command them directly. Options currently in testing include: patrol ToL, patrol entire city, patrol checkpoints, patrol city walls. The options available are dynamic, so "rare" guard captains may have AI available that normal guard captains do not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
