I'm making an RGP board game where I have different heros, each one of them belongs to some types
for example ("Aatrox" is a Dragon and a Ninja hence he belong to these two types),and each player has a
list of champion with fixed attirubtes like basicAttackDamage,criticalstrike/chance/ability..etc
and i have what are called as buffs, a buff gets activated to player when his some of his heros
belong to certain types
eg: if a player gets two Dragons or more , then every hero whose type is Dragon gets double Damage
Attack, TrueDamage(Ignore magic resist and armor), Attack..etc
so i was wondering what would be the most flexible way to implement these sort of buffs considering the
fact that each champion could only use his attack/ability once in each round and there are buffs that
gets added with a certain chance "this buffs gives the hero 40% chance to stun the enemy with basic
attack, and buffs which add health to heros ("this buffs give the hero 250 extra health") etc..
my current approach is to add tags on buffs and apply these buffs when attacking or defending an attack
so this would look something like
enum BuffsType{
OnHit,OnAttack
}
but this approach kinda fails at complex buffs like "a chance to hit extra
attack/extra enemy/". I have seen some discussions about this but none of the answers seemed to be REALLY flexible, most of them failed at complex buffs
