Mass Sorrow
From the Might and Magic Wiki - Might and Magic, Heroes of Might and Magic, King's Bounty
Level: 4
Cost: 8 mana
[edit] Description
Mass Sorrow gives all enemy units maximum negative morale.
[edit] Overview
Doom, despair, and misery wash over all your enemies on the field of battle, and any creature subject to mind spells will become so dispirited that they will always act after all creatures not suffering from bad morale, and will have their damage reduced by 20%.
The effects of Mass Sorrow are identical to the single-target version, and like the smaller version, will not take effect until the start of the turn after it is cast. Also, like Sorrow, it will not affect elementals, constructs, nor the undead.
[edit] Comments
This spell is an excellent start to a battle, as the penalties it causes will ensure that you go first, and that your enemies will strike less forcefully. If you wait to cast it until the battle is mostly decided, your enemies may already be suffering from reduced morale due to circumstance, and the spell will thus have less effect.
