Re: A newbie asks...

No, Yes and Yes.

Both spells have ranges and AoE. The AI won't cast the spells once everyone within range has the effect. The AoE spreads out randomly and will overlap, so some targets will be...

Re: A newbie asks...

Air has lightning spells (Lightning bolt, Orb Lightning and Thunderbolt), which are very nice since they're AN. Nature doesn't have a lot of direct damage spells. Some AoE poison, but that'll do as...

Re: A newbie asks...

Congratulations. You've just run into an SC. (Or at least the AI's attempt at one.)

Ethereal means normal weapons have a 75% chance of having no effect. Depending on what his god is, what buffs...

Re: Newbie questions about independents...

Essentially no. The independent defenders stay put and do not change, other than being killed.

That said there are a couple of things that can change them. Most commonly, independent provinces...

Re: A feature I'm begging for in the next patch....

Wasn't that a feature change from Dom2? Worst change made IMHO. Considering that most changes were great, or at least grew on me, that's saying something.

It might be possible to work around as...

Re: Is this a bug?

I don't think you can assign troops to mercenaries. If you could, you'd never get them back and someone else could hire them and get your troops.

Re: A newbie asks...

The sieging/storming mechanics are pretty simplified.

You can't storm until the wall has been breached. Which essentially means the gate is down and there is a way in. The size of the entry...

Because that's how Wish works.

Or Chayot.
Seraph is tougher and more versatile, but more vulnerable to Magic Duel.

Re: Lanka Pretender Design

Be careful with Death scales and a blood economy. Your hunting provinces will drop below optimal pretty quickly.

Re: Will disease spread to non-diseased units?

No. They will not.

Not normal diseased units anyway. There are summonable units and items that will spread disease.

Re: How important is reinvig

Critical for a solo.

Less important, but still good if he's backing up an army or blocking for mages.

Also not so important on the low end. If you only expect him to win against weak PD, it...

Re: Question about Standard ability...

It's actually probably better that it's not a grid. Since it takes effect every turn, you'll be boosting a different overlapping set of troops each time. Since it wears off slowly you'll have a...

Re: Question about Standard ability...

Correct. The rating is the number of squares. The bonus goes up one for every 10 points.

But, according to the manual, "Morale boosted by standards ... can never exceed +5."

Re: Question about Standard ability...

Slightly more complicated than that. Morale boosted by standards drops by 1 every round. But standards have their affect every round, so if the unit is still in the area they'll be boosted back up...

Re: Vanarus, Machaka Lion Kings etc

On the other hand, LA Atlantis was arguably underpowered and LA Mictlan is a powerhouse. Giving them anything good in the oceans just boosts them even more.

On the gripping hand, more opposition...

Re: Bug Thread: Discussion

It's not a bug that the mage can't cast it. It is documented that a mage can't use more gems/slaves than he has levels in the path, so it should be clear that a B1 caster can't cast a B1 spell that...

Re: MA C'tis question

The other common regen item is a Shroud, if you've got a N4+ bless. Which is pretty common, partly for that purpose.

Re: Vines Reanimating Manakins

To be fair, this one's a little harder to test. Assuming he actually means Regrowth not Quick Roots, it's a 4th level spell, which means you either have to mod it or play long enough to actually...

Re: Hellpower. What the hell?

There's been a strange bug reported where a spell is reported cast but actually isn't and the same mage casts another one that round. This sounds like another instance of that.

Re: Newbie Question--Can you coordinate multiple armies attacking a single province?

OTOH, it's fairly easy to set up a quick game to test questions like this.

Start a new game, recruit troops until you can take the weakest neighboring indy, take him. Attack another province with...

Re: Newbie Question--Can you coordinate multiple armies attacking a single province?

They will join together to fight in one battle, unless the enemy army in C attempts to attack either A or B. In that case, one of two things are likely to happen. Assuming C is attacking A, either A...

Re: Newbie question about orders...

I think the touch spells are more geared towards unplanned self-defense. They might even work once in awhile.

There may be niche situations where you'd want to script them, but none come to mind....

Re: Tactics for Newbies

Rarely used, partly because it's pretty ineffective and partly because they'll scatter to the surrounding provinces, making it hard to round them up effectively.

Occasionally, you can pull of a...
