chalice and the questing knights
 

the flavor says sometimes knights attak the wearer of the chalice. Is it true in-game? (or it depends on where he wears it :) )

It's never happened to me. But that is the sort of thing that Dominions does.

Re: chalice and the questing knights
 

iirc, lch couldn't find any evidence of code to cause this to happen. So its probably just flavor text.

Re: chalice and the questing knights
 

I believe there is a thread on that topic. I also have never met the knights..

I have has a couple of events in SP where a province was attacked by knights. I can't remember the specific flavour text, but it was similar to having a province attacked by events that spawn barbarians, undead, vinemen, ronin and manikins.

Re: chalice and the questing knights
 

Yeah, but never for the chalice. It's a group of knights rebelling or whatever. They come in with some chaff.
But not because the chalice is in the province. I think that would be a great price for such a great item.

Re: chalice and the questing knights
 

They sometimes come up as a rare indy province, led by a paladin with a bunch of unique armaments, but not as a random event.

The knights-attack thing is a bad luck event for provinces with turmoil, isn't it? Or, at any rate, some combination of "bad luck result on event check" and scales, like vampires attacking and really big barbarian attacks.

You mean Solaris?

Re: chalice and the questing knights
 

I feel like a remember having knights attempt assassinations on the person holding the Chalice in Dom 2. Is that right? The text could just be a holdover.

Actually there is a very rare event (in the event list) that can only happen if you have the MA man multi-Hero: Knight of the Stone. If I recall correctly those knights could get quests (as random events) were they quest for random items. That is to say the player get the quested item in their inventory. It *might* be possible to get artifacts in these events.
