![]() Sol has extra capacity for fighters, so more health + dice, but I believe they only have 17 more than base factions (+9 from flagship, +8 from Carriers), so Cabal does better if they have 3 space dock 2 in one system (+45). Other than that, Sardakk is probably the best lose 1 dreadnaught to destroy 2 warsuns, +2 to all rolls, counter Barony’s invincible Dreads/Flagship.īarony has a good time with their full dread fleet with Flagship and Warsuns emergency repairs with NES in this situation is nuts, and don’t forget to use War Funding to reroll all of your misses. Ghosts of Creuss can blow up the Alastor with Dimensional slicer + direct hit, but I’m not sure how else this can be stopped (and direct hit just gets sabotaged if Nekro’s situation is perfect). In this scenario, Nekro can have infinite ground forces taking part in the fight if they have a planet with a giant stack there prior to activation, so long as their flagship exists long enough to activate its ability no one can beat Nekro. You're right! Without their hero, the maximum Mentak fleet (16 fleets pool, max capacity, all upgrades) doesn't stand a chance, winning 0% of the time. So short of Nekro drawing every war machine, getting space dock 2, and using every single build to increase the infantry/fighters at home, I believe this Barony fleet takes it. The 88/89 infantry mark is where the Nekro virus can take the edge. Increase to 80 infantry, and the Barony has a 92% chance. ![]() I used to test this against a Nekro fleet of the flagship, 4 carriers, 24 fighter 2s, and 70 infantry 2s, and the Barony had a 100% chance of victory. The fleet can sustain 16 hits via sustain damage before needing to sacrifice a unit, and will use duranium armor every round to repair a dread, plus repair the flagship via it's ability, for 4 hits per round of healing. Off course, Barony has Duranium Armor, NES, and Assault Cannon. This gives a capacity of 52, which will be taken up by fighters 2s. Using their hero to eliminate the fleet supply cap for 1 round, the Barony rushes in with their flagship, 5 upgraded dreadnoughts, 2 war suns, 4 carrier 2s, 8 cruiser 2s, and 8 destroyer 2s. If we're ignoring the Yin Flagship and Muaat hard counters, I will throw in a vote for a Barony fleet.

So this means that you can move around but your character is using both hands to drink the potion and can not fight. Right? And even if you find a bottle and a nurse you might not have enough money to fill the bottle and heal yourself.ģ.1: Bottle 3 but with a healing over time effect instead of instant healing.ģ.2: Bottle 3 but with a short drinking animation before you're instantly healed.ģ.cubeworld: Bottle 3 but it works like potions in Cubeworld does. ![]() The bottle comes empty so you need a nurse to fill it up and even if you manage to find the bottle you might not find a nurse which (sounds) balanced. There could maybe be different levels dropedin Arcade mode of this one so in one run you get the 500HP bottle and the next you get the 200HP bottle. Every time I use the bottle it instantly uses as much as it can to bring me back to full HP and if it heals me back to full from 150 to 200 it's now gone down to 450 from 500. Right now my character only has 200 HP so I can heal myself back to full health around 2.5 times. My bottle can store 1000 HP but I don't have enough money to buy that much so I buy 500 HP. So the bottle has a cap on how much health it can store and when you meet the nurse or talk to the potion guy in the city they offer to fill your bottle up with a similar algorithm to how the healing in Arcade works with the nurse. (Additional it could be interupted by taking damage, this could also work as a mana potion if that's wanted) When used one charge is instantly applied to your character and you start to regen back health for 5 or so seconds.Ģ: It works like in Darksouls and each bottle heals X amount of health instantly after a short "casting" duration.ģ: You fill the bottle with a certain amount of health depending on how much money you spend. One charge gives the player a healing over time that heals X amount of HP. Here are some of my different ideas on a health potion.ġ: It works as the bottle in Dota and has 3 charges that can be refilled. Every task or quest they complete will slowly add to the belief in Calahree and slowly grow your own power as well.The bottle could work and there are some different things you can do with it to make it more interesting than just a normal health potion.

You can't choose a profession until you reach level six, but once you do, you can either become an Auror, Magizoologist, or Professor. What Professions are and how to pick the right one in Harry Potter: Wizards Unite All the Professions have different spells, both Passive and Active, that can be used to defeat enemies. Each job does something a little different and helps you in different ways.

If you run out of time, or you run out of health during a battle, you and your team will lose. To beat chambers in a Fortress, you need to defeat all the enemies on that level before the timer runs out. Just remember that more players will increase the difficulty of the enemies in the fortress. Up to five players can join together to help battle the enemies in a Fortress, and for the higher level chambers, it will likely be necessary.

Second, it is important to provide adequate resources and support for women's participation in peace and security processes. This means providing opportunities for women to participate in decision-making, as well as ensuring that their voices are heard and valued. First, it is essential to ensure that women are included in all aspects of the peace process, from the negotiation table to the implementation stage. In order to effectively include Resolution 1325 in the reconciliation project submitted by the Presidential Council in Libya, several important recommendations must be followed. According to research conducted by the International Peace Institute, when women are included in peace negotiations, the resulting agreements are 35% more likely to last for at least 15 years. In addition to the moral imperative of including women in peace and security processes, there is also a growing body of evidence that demonstrates the practical benefits of doing so. Their inclusion in peace processes is not only a moral imperative, but it is also an essential ingredient for sustainable peace." ![]() Similarly, Radhika Coomaraswamy, the former UN Special Rapporteur on Violence against Women, has emphasized the importance of women's involvement in peace negotiations, stating that "women have the ability to work together to overcome even the most challenging obstacles. Without them, any peace agreement is likely to falter or fail." They have insights, skills, and experiences that are unique and indispensable. According to Melanne Verveer, the former US ambassador for global women's issues, "Women's involvement is essential to achieving lasting peace. The significance of the inclusion of Resolution 1325 in Libya's reconciliation project is further highlighted by international experts. The inclusion of Resolution 1325 in the reconciliation project submitted by the Presidential Council in Libya is therefore essential to ensure that the voices and perspectives of women are heard and valued in the country's transition to a more peaceful and stable future. ![]() Despite this, they have frequently been excluded from peace negotiations and decision-making processes. Libyan women have played a crucial role in the country's ongoing conflict, often at great personal risk. This resolution is of particular importance in Libya, a country that has experienced years of violence and instability. Resolution 1325, passed by the United Nations Security Council in 2000, is a landmark achievement for the recognition of the impact of conflict on women, and the importance of women's participation in peace and security processes. |
