Bug or WAD?
 

I recently conquered Sauromatian capitol in a mp game and I'm allowed to recruit Hydra Hatchlings there. Is this bug or WAD?

Re: Bug or WAD?
 

Not sure. Hydras and hydra hatchlings have always been recruitable from the national sites, except the sacred Serpent Cult ones. Makes sense, as they are animals/monsters that are trained, not sapient creatures who would actually know which side they fight for. There is also a random magic site that allows hydra hatchling recruitment.

Oh yeah, forgot to mention. I can't recruit Hydras. If we go by the "not sapient" - explanation, shouldn't I get those too?

Re: Bug or WAD?
 

Okay, then that's a bug with the magic site. Possibly if site code was copied from Bile Marsh and the hydra and other stuff added later, it'd be the difference between #mon and #homemon as to whether or not you can recruit.

I'll add that to the list in the next roundup.

Re: Bug or WAD?
 

Nope it is WAD. Hydra hatchling is recruitable in other sites as well, but hydra is only recruitable by Pythium and Sauromatia.

So, there's a flourishing underground trade in hydra hatchlings and those who don't know well enough to release them before they grow up get eaten? http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/wink.gif

Al Khazim (the Djinn) still gets into the hall of fame. He's more unique than the arch devils. Bug??

My pretender has on occasion gotten into the hall of fame. It WAD, unless Al Khazim got a heroic.

Al Khazim got a heroic attribute for me too, his Legendary Cruelty. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/happy.gif
My pretender and the air queens which are in the HoF didn't.
