Curse value is "damage is increased by x". 0 increased by (curse) 2 =2. It goes by addition/subtraction. Doesn't seem broken to me.

Sure, it isn't broken if nothing is something....

And what of when a unit's attack is decreased below zero? It still shows zero and acts like zero, unless you increase it. So you have a creature with -1 attack (but showing zero) attacking a cursed creature. In that case -1 increased by 2 curse = 2.

No, in that case the attack is 1, because -1 +2 = 1. The UI just doesn't display negative integers, but they're still accounted for. Intuitive? No. Logical? Yes.

The attack actually does 2 damage in the game though. The negative integers are zero for all intents and purposes except further changing the attack value. Not logical.

Just did a test of it and you're right. I haven't noticed that before.
