Re: Dominions II Bug Thread
 
Large unit of Poisoned Slingers wouldn't fire not matter what setting I used: none, fire closest, or fire.

Tried placing them closer or further back and they kept using their daggers. Once in the 5 battles they fired instead.

Very buggy since I used them all Last game and they worked perfectly in that game.

Have trn and fthlnd files showing final losing battle where they used daggers. Just need to know where to send them.

<font size="2" face="sans-serif, arial, verdana">Are you certain you did not accidentally mix a melee-only unit with them? Alternately, if it was a huge block - big enough so that the rearmost slingers could not shoot farther than the frontmost slingers - they may have not fired to avoid hitting themselves. That would have to be a pretty huge block, though.

Then I tried another game after losing the bugged one and they worked again.

I didn't change anything as far as how I was playing, it is bugs and it happened many times in a row, so it wasn't just a one-off.

Did the enemy have some units which were immune to poison? Maybe the AI if the tries to target enemies, and the first choice is poison immune, they decide to attack them anyway, with their non-poison weapons... oops.

Just a theory.

Here's an interesting one: Drain life/Steal strength affect lifeless and undead creatures. I've sent multiple Earth Attacks at Soul Gate Ermor, only to watch as the Earth Elemental becomes fatigued and pass out as it is struck by ghosts, spirits, Spectators, and Dusk Elders.

An Earth Elemental is a lifeless, mindless, 0-encumberance creature with no spellcasting ability. Is it even SUPPOSED to become fatigued?

IIRC life drain harms everyone, including lifeless, but the attacker will not get back HP or reduced fatigue from it as there is no life to drain.

The Black Forest Ulm commander has a tower shield and a pike. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon12.gif Between that and the pre-patch BoH humanbred I can tell you think soldiers have three hands. And his picture is holding a sword.
