Re: Black Company Mod

Ack! A Black Company-inspired mod WITHOUT Soulcatcher? A travesty! An absolute, utter, complete travesty.

She's a hero with lots of astral magic, and probably death thrown in there, too. Give...

Re: Vanheim and blood

Oh! THAT might explain my funky, inconsistent results. So I have to 'prime the pump' with a few slaves, and after that they'll keep themselves supplied?

Hmmm. Means I won't be able to use 'pool...

Re: Vanheim and blood

While we're on the subject of blood (and what a wonderful subject it is) I've really been trying to learn to like Mictlan, but their dependence on sacrifice leads me to one inevitable question:

Re: Burden of Time

So basically, there's too sides to this debate:

1) Burden of Time is one of those insanely powerful spells that can wipe out whole armies and empires in a dreadfully short amount of time, and has...

Re: What are Arch Devils good for?

And their flight and fire magic orientation makes them good leaders for fire-resistant devils and demon knights.

Re: Father Illearth/Lord of Banefire - why?

As a great blood magic enthusiast, let me point out that blood magic is the easiest magical skill to increase, both by the plentitude of magical items and the ease of gathering slaves for...

Re: Starting to get frustrated with this game

Also, Ermor requires the ability to manage ridiculously huge armies that spring up all over the place helter-skelter, gathering them up into roaming assault forces. This is what the AI is really...

Re: Starting to get frustrated with this game

Yeah, that's AI spellcasting stupidity. That's one good reason to spread out commanders. Keeps them from all getting detonated if you run into bad luck somewhere.

Re: Blood 9 Blessing: Beavis and Butthead for the first time

Hmmmm. I sense secrets that I was not privy to. You say 'blood blessing becomes strong at high levels'. Does this mean that blessings 'scale up' as the god's stat increases? So at blood 8 you...

Re: How are you guys controlling spells?

Also some really nice spells (like fireball, inferno, and panic) are on magic items. Give one of those to a non-mage commander, and set him to 'cast spells', and he'll just stand there and cast that...

Well, THAT may just be aim.

Re: Starting to get frustrated with this game

Ah, R'lyeh. I feel your pain, my friend. I, too, went 'Oh, boy, Lovecraftian monsters!'

R'lyeh is very... odd. Let me give you a quick summary of some of the things you're facing.

Re: Blood slave units - transfer?

It happens consistently, yes.

I'd love to hear other people reproduce my results. You could probably do so quite easily with an edited .map file.

It's just difficult enough to get slaves to...

Re: Short cut commander orders

I wish you could chain-order them to forge something. There are items like clams and skull mentors I'd just set somebody to building and forget about them.

Re: Blood slave units - transfer?

Bleed. Do you want the saved game? Many things are going on, but the only 'odd' command was sending a blood slave with blood magic into combat and ordering her to cast that spell.

If you do want...

Re: Blood slave units - transfer?

I wish to report a bug. When you make a blood slave into a blood mage, send her into combat, and order her to sacrifice herself for a spell, the game crashes.

Re: Where did my Horror go?

You can wish for them, as I understand it. Or cast Send Horror, of course. Wonderful spell. Doesn't kill too many people, but scatters an army like chaff.

Re: Where did my Horror go?

You can't take over a horror. They just die. It's one way to survive getting attacked by one, though. If it works.

Re: Blood slave units - transfer?

So I could, say, transfer some blood slaves to a commander, have the commander retreat from a fight (but have another commander win it), reap a few blood slaves as personal units, Gift of Reason one,...

Sweeeeeet. Thanks!

I definitely had to far tone down the cost of Silicons. They're good units, but they're not 100 gold good!
