Seeking Arrow
 

Does the target commanders HP have any effect on the spell? Or is it a hard coded % change to kill/wound/fail? I hate to lose my brand new Gift-of-Reasoned commander to such a basic spell.

Re: Seeking Arrow
 

Seeking Arrow is an AN attack with 8 damage - it always hits a commander bar luck, air shield or any defensive dome rituals.

The damage is resolved by rolling a DRN added to the damage (2d6, 6s allow another roll) and a DRN subtracted from the damage.

High hp makes your commander likelier to survive the ritual.

Glad to hear that. Very glad.

As an aside: I tried to wish for an Eater, and he appeared and prompty destroyed my expensive, equipped, and oh-so-fragile mage. Is there any chance of "taming" such a creature or is summoning one via wish merely a handy way of committing suicide?

Re: Seeking Arrow
 

Which Eater? If you mean one of the Doom Horrors, theres about a 50% chance of them joining you IIRC.

Re: Seeking Arrow
 

what is IIRC ?

Re: Seeking Arrow
 

if i remember correctly

Re: Seeking Arrow
 

Well, I specifically tried calling Eater of Dreams and ended up getting the Eater of Gods. This was perhaps my... 4th time? casting Wish.

Re: Seeking Arrow
 

Dont bother trying to tame the horrors. Even if you get one properly, and then GoR it, they just randomly leave you whenever they feel like it. Wish for something powerful and reliable, like a Seraph or Chayot.

Re: Seeking Arrow
 

My end game experience is rather limited, either the game ends before the big spells come out, or I'm losing handily. I just wished for the creature that seemed to have the most fearsome name :)

Re: Seeking Arrow
 

Do Seeking Arrows target PD commanders, or only commanders recruited by the nation?

Re: Seeking Arrow
 

PD is invulnerable to everything but an attacking army.

Re: Seeking Arrow
 

You know you can just rename them don't you????

Re: Seeking Arrow
 

And raising unrest.

Re: Seeking Arrow
 

Unrest has no effect on PD.

Re: Seeking Arrow
 

And ASSASSINS!

Re: Seeking Arrow
 

If you lose the province to unrest, you lose the pd.

Re: Seeking Arrow
 

SA are addressed only for the normal commanders, not PD. If you throw SA into the empty prowince (with PD but no commanders), the opponent will not even know you did it.
Edit: um, I replied to a question from the previous page.

Re: Seeking Arrow
 

You don't lose provinces to unrest. You lose provinces to random events that cause armies to attack.

Re: Seeking Arrow
 

I think what Chris wanted to say was that unrest was a prerequisite to the bad event that causes you to lose a province (uprising)

Re: Seeking Arrow
 

I think what you're saying is that chris doesn't differentiate between unrest (i.e. the numerical value of it that a province has) and the random event that makes a province turn against it's owner through a revolt, resulting in an independent province. I haven't checked the effects that PD has on it, I'd expect that only low-PD provinces revolt, same as with wishing for more provinces.

Re: Seeking Arrow
 

You can't wish for specific Doom Horrors, you're always just going to get one of them which is being determined randomly, even if you use their names.

Re: Seeking Arrow
 

according to Edi's DB you only need unrest 10 and no troops in the province to get the revolt event. It doesn't say anything of PD but it could be

Re: Seeking Arrow
 

I've had provinces with significant pd revolt. Its why I mention it.
