Re: Flying underwater

I know for sure that putting boots of flying on a commander underwater does not allow them to fly.

Re: Global not going in effect????

Is it possible that once there are 6 Globals up, that henceforth all new globals must overcome an existing one, even when the total drops below 6?

Is your experience that I will get the same...

Global not going in effect????

In a long MP game. Had Gift of Health up. Had is replaced by other globals, to the point where the game eventually had 6 globals up. Several have been dispeled, and only 3 Globals remain.

Re: Soul Gate Ermor tips?

If you want to get a feel for Ermor, you might want to try Ashen Empire first - it's easier to handle and better against the AI imo.

Dominion is very important, so build temples. It determines...

Re: What determines battle order?

I went and tested this and I was totally wrong. Smaller and faster do not grant you the ability to "catch" and army.

Re: Enchanted Forest formula?

Quite a number of provinces received no vinemen and none of a number of Dominion 10 provinces received 10. Perhaps something more like:

Re: Underwater Imprint Souls - BUG?

There was definitely a commander, but it had no Magic Command rating, so could only command the ~10 non-magic units.

Drowning seems unlikely, as the units are all Versions of Rlyeh units (e.g.,...

When I cast Imprint Sould underwater, I get about 40 magic beings (Mad Ones?), but NO commander able to command magical beings. So they just go poof! I can't belive this is by design.

Re: Mystery commander deaths after battle - bug?

Could the answer be Decay. If I remember correctly, units hit with decay make a MR after the battle for death. So the commander could have survived the battle, but died to decay afterwards.

It depends on when and where you cast your AR. On turn 17, on a reasonable size map, in a swamp or wasteland province, AR is always a good bet. Swamps and wastelands have lots of sites, and since...
