Two quick questions. (And a bonus niefel jarl!)
 
1 Attachment(s)
Two brief newbie questions, if you all don't mind.

First, is there a way to search for a specific commander outside of F1 and scrolling through the province list? I'm playing a Niefelheim game, and have something like 50 Niefel Jarls (vs. AI, I decided to expand slowly but rather easily with a triple blessed 10 W/E/N and abysmal scales. Lots of fun, though).

Second, is there a way to transfer more than one gem/blood slave at the same time? I have 5 provinces set up for blood hunting at the moment, and my clicking finger is getting tired. Something like the shift-click on recruiting would be fantastic.

As a bonus, here's a screenshot of my prophet. Bwahaha! (I forgot to finish kitting him out since I got Const 6 and gem income; I prophetised him earlier on and he didn't need much equip. Next turn he'll be even more awesome) Worth noting that he's in a cold 3, dom 9 province, so he has a +129 dominion bonus to his HP, and probably a large hp/stat bonus from cold power (how does that work exactly? Can I find the stats for cold power somewhere?). Plus the rime hauberk in cold 3... Still, he's Prot 33, Def 42, with 5 reinvig and 77 regen.

I'm going to throw him messenger boots and a ring of regen, MR ammy, and lucky shield. Horror helm, as I can't think of something I'd rather have. He's going to be semi-unkillable. Maybe Starshine skullcap would be better than the horror helm...his stats include a +4 dom bonus to his MR, and +1 from drain.

No way to find a specific commander. I use 'n' to cycle through those without orders, but if you're looking for that one mage with a particular random combination F1 (with renaming to mark the interesting ones) is probably the best way.

If you've got a lab in the hunting province, you can use Ctrl-Z. If you're using scouts to ferry slaves to labs, you're out of luck.

thejeff wanted to say Shift-Z. :)

TheJeff, WingedDog; thanks! I have that in one of my provinces. It'll be really helpful.

ssj; :D. I know. Still, vs. AI it's easy to do fun things like that. *shrug* I have lots of fun overrunning poor MA Ulm with the giants, though. *STOMP* Next up; Kailasa. It'll be interesting to see 6 Niefel Jarls vs. a 350 monkey army. I'm predicting lots of dead monkeys. Even if they have monkey PD.

I'm also amused; resurrecting dead heroes from the HoF is awesome when they have unequaled obesity. Normally a rough booby trap of a trait, if you are a 0=enc undead...less of a problem. I'm still not sure what to do with mummies, though.

A skullface would be better than horror helm so he can cast soul vortex.

Incidentally, does Soul Vortex work on undead? I've never tried.

No it doesn't.

It doesn't work against undead, but undead can use it successfully.

You don't need a skullface for that, just give him a death gem. Although I admit a skullface is logically simpler, at one death gem per combat it takes a lot of combats to make the skullface cheaper.

You dont need to rename, F1 shows the paths of each commander on the right hand side.
