While engaged it is supposed to increase All of your defense units defense values
This one seems to work pretty good wondering when I will see another one LOL
Ok increase all defense units values where? in castle? whil doing btgs? while defending a hamlet? a siege? i really dont see any changes .. and btw it called LEGENDARY UNIT DEFENSE champ
I was told after asking that they effect all units maybe they ment when ledgendary defence units are used in union with the regular defense units here are the discriptions given at the release https://plarium.com/forum/en/stormfall-age-of-war/841_news/42226_new-champions-have-arrived/
" I was told after asking that they effect all units "
It seems clear to me that Battleguard and Warhawk only boost the off/def Stats of Legendary Units, not Legendary Support Bonuses or Support Size etc ... and most definitely do not affect ALL unit types, which makes these new champions pretty useless (along with the new Hamlet Champion)
The only saving grace is that they may help with our zero-loss armies, but will have minimal effect on any normal army strength
It is clear that the new champion will still contribute a good bonus depending on the number of these legendary units. And it seems that processing all new changes takes some time on the server, which affects the quick display of information. This is like in tournaments, where your results and new points in tournaments are not immediately displayed, but this does not mean that nothing happened or that nothing happened. This idea of new champions seems designed to increase interest in buying more legendary units. I also checked, all legendary champions work correctly, enjoy :]
The User Interface numbers are pretty much "indictative" for a long time.
For instance if you attack a beacon, the number shown isn't your actually offence power as it doesn't add in the Wisdom bonus you might have for that type of location.
If you equip that legendary champ and then go look at your garrison strength at hamlet or beacon - absolutely no change.
The actual battle calculations are done fully and with a completely different set correct formulae. The User intereface calcs are done seperately and can be wrong.
Make of that what you will. Feature? Bug? Lazniess? Incompetence?
I have a spreadsheet for calculating army power. Run it so I don't have to turn bonuses on. I can tell you that calculating army power has got more and more and more difficult. They keep adding units, legendaries, champs with wierd bonuses which make the calculations insantly complex.
So I have some sympathy with the devs, because the marketing dept and the design ppl have run away with just adding new stuff with no idea the complexity. And we wonder why the servers might lag sometimes.

Yeah there are a ton of calculations that go on whenever there's a battle, and it probably gets a bit worse every time they add new units or bonuses. Here's hoping Plarium has good servers for all that work haha.
Btw the power shown in the send screen also doesn't seem to include the individual and league offense bonuses available for gold in the league shop, so make sure to consider those in your spreadsheet as well.
