Short Break for updates

I case you've been wondering, I'm taking a break from daily updates.

Playing other games at the moment.

I'll resume when I get more time for Saga.

I wonder if they fixed the bugs...

"• Final Tournament Test Thursday • 27 August 2008 Tournaments are almost ready but we need your help. Tomorrow Thursday August 28th between Noon and 4PM EST, the SAGA staff will be on the live servers playing in tournaments. Please join us in playing as many tournament games as you can. We want to have at least 5 tournaments running simultaneously. In order for this to work, we need everyone joining the tournaments to play at least 1 game. Please do NOT leave if you didn’t get good troops. If you want to concede, please do so after entering a game. There may be a little something for those who do well in tournaments, and coal in your stocking if you enter tournaments then drop before your first game, and by coal we mean ineligibility for any cool future promotions we have planned." - https://www.playsaga.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=7514

Finally I can play paid tourneys and open those packs I've been saving.

Market Price in Gold/Mats for Cards:



So Sagatraders has given the trade list.


This brings the point of WTH is Silverlode thinking when they made the market so poorly. Why not allow big gold trades for units, why limit us?


Why not build a better search engine.


Anyway, as a sample, here is the undead list. Overall its a pretty good list.

If you can get to Level 35 you can farm a TON of gold. Good way to play for free imo. Get to 35 then start collecting your army.

Items might give flying?


I'd love to see a flying deathbringer...

Getting Peasants for your Undead Army

So on my Order Army I did kill the beast.

It works really well.

Sadly on my Undead army my peasants aren't reproducting as well as I like, and I have to go steal some from the game.






Slow as a Chersus up a Hill seems to be the one that Brotherhood people use.

It's pretty lame as slow, but if you are looking for more workers, they do live here.

What good are the new Deathbringer unit?



So looking at the deathbringer, it's hard to figure out his appeal.

Well, honestly, this is an excellent PvP unit for undead.

It's best feature is that it has the damage and range to kill 6CP units, which are very common in PvP. Eagle, Gryphons, Ravens, Treants, Elementals, etc etc, this units damage is targetted at putting the most dps on a unit with alot of hitpoints.

It has all of the stats that matter for a good 6CP killer. Speed - Range - attack speed - and a snare.

It fires two shots per attack, one followed quickly by the second. This allow microkiting.

It is fast with a very decent stamina pool, a big hitpoint pool and a 31 DR.

The only disadvantages are the low morale, and the fact that they are ranged and machines.





Here is a videa with a level 2 Deathbringer vs a level 10 Treant pack. The Treant was winning so I had to move it around so you get the idea of the damage.

Battle Server problems since the patch...




If you've been since the undead patch, you will undoubtably realize that the Saga "WAR" screen is not working that well. You might be fine for an hour, then go into a 20min period where you can't connect.

This affects:
  • Join tourneys
  • Starting Quests
  • PvP fights

So pretty much everything except tooling around you nation screen.

If you try and try again, and again, you might get in, but your 70 attempts is probably screwing up other players.

It's 'probably' the tournaments that are doing it, but we haven't seen much from the developers.
