Re: Lugh the Long Handed??

The troll mage also has glamour but no stealth IIRC

Re: Polymorph

I assume that the horse turns into a pig, but without a rider doesn't join the battle and just wanders off somewhere to be harmless.

Re: Translation Question... :p

I think you can go better when it comes to motivating them... Imagine how hard they'd work if instead of being replaced, the worst performers were eaten by bears!

Re: Do priests ever level up?

Probably not... I think that the level of recruitable priests is supposed to be one of the major distinguishing points between nations.

Re: Nominate the most useless spell here!

I think that Spirit Curse just inflicts a curse. Its utility seems clear - it's a 0 research way of cursing an enemy SC.

I cast gift of nature's bounty in a mid-sized SP game a while back and went...

Re: Firbolg

Quite a few of the tartarians have magic weapons as standard, so I imagine they could seriously challenge the wraith lord. The wraith lord's price probably includes a hefty cost for the immortality...

Re: Do priests ever level up?

There's a thread somewhere which gives the benefits of experience at each level. Spellcasters don't improve their magic abilities with experience though, although research does increase.

Re: What is wrong with the AI?

It's not realistic in a turn based strategy game to expect an AI that can seriously challenge an experienced human player without either cheating or being very lucky. "The AI sucks!" is a complaint...

Re: The fatal flaws of scripting mages...

Of course, thematically it makes sense that sometimes mages would make a mistake. They don't know that a lone enemy is actually loaded with magic items or whatever. When they have heavy weight of...

Re: Tartarian Gate, but no Titan?

I thought they were unlimited in both... I've definitely summoned a fair batch of them including duplicates in both Doms2 and Doms3

Re: Back to reality.

One of the Ctissian clerics changes as a prophet... I can't remember if it's the lizard king or the high priest. The new version has a purple robe, but I don't know if it has any real advantages.

Re: The fatal flaws of scripting mages...

The other side of the coin here, is that if you selected 'AI scripting off' for a big army, the enemy could drop 'call of the winds' on you and your mages would waste tons of gems. Then if the army...

Re: OT: good fantasy books

While he was definitely prejudiced I don't think that Lovecraft's work is all that bad here. It's important to remember that racism was the general way of thinking in his time. I can generally shrug...

Re: OT: good fantasy books

My favourite fantasy novels are probably the Lyonesse books by Jack Vance. They're available in two volumes in the 'fantasy masterworks' series.

Their main competition is Fritz Leiber's books...

Re: Couple of questions

I believe that encumbrance is added to fatigue each time a unit attacks, so quickness should double fatigue. I don't think that adding extra weapons affects it though.

Re: Couple of questions

AFAIK here's how attacks work:

If a single weapon has multiple attacks all of these are directed at the same unit. This means that the gorgon cannot kill more than 1 unit each action with its...

Re: Lord of fertility

'not bonus of any kind' is a bit harsh. He doesn't give extra fertility to humans, but more calves = more food, hence the supply bonus.

Re: Lord of fertility

I think the point is not that giving growth would be overpowered but that it would be unthematic for a god with death-scale. If you want the lord of fertility to encourage growth then you should give...

Re: special characters again .. or the lack of ..

I think there's a known issue with unusual characters in names. One of Sauromatia's heroes has his name displayed as just 'Sk' because of this

Re: Undead SC Fatigue

I believe that armour still reduces the battlefield movement of 0 encumbrance units. A bane or whatever with the monolith armour will take an age to close with enemies.

If this is the same as when you dominion-kill a god, the armies should vanish.

Re: I call this a bug... Is it?

Well, I might agree that it's a bug, in that in produces behaviour that doesn't fit the gameworld.... but I wouldn't agree that it's a 'serious' one. I imagine that this sort of event would only...
