Flat Armor Option

BLIZZARD can you please add FLAT ARMOR option in map editor please, that can go along with percentage one.
Say for example I have one hero that has Percentage armor and one that has only flat armor.

Thanks!!

good call, but i still think they should give us the option, and for one reason only.

Armor in Reign of chaos used to work FLAT. if they return this function as an option for us it would be great.

That can be done with a small trigger since there are playerunitEvents for Takes and Pre Takes damage.

set combat armor value to 0 (in game constats) and reduce event damage by armor of the triggering unit on pre damage event. But check for damagetype beeing normal, cause only that one should consider armor.

Summing that up: 1 anyunit event + 1 condition, 1 action and a change in game constants.

It did? As far as I am aware armor in Warcraft III has always been percentage based. Even as far back as the RoC Demo.
