Re: Newbie Question: Joining The Living And The De

The ancient presence shows up in a random event. It's the leader of an attack by independents on a province - kinda similar to Bogus and his lads, except it just has a bunch of manikins for company.

Re: LA Ermor Questions

1) Not sure how good wailing ladies are as I play sp only and the game is pretty much over by the time they make their appearance. I believe that the attack is Aoe1 Mr resists, although I'm not sure....

Re: Appearing armies?

Try selecting 'neighbours' under map filters. I often miss connections otherwise... in fact I recently missed one even with it on.

Re: Priestess goes soulless?

Did you have the spell 'Life after Death' active? If you use that spell (or the Ankh) then your commanders can become soulless.

Re: Best guards when horror marked?

Would a hit from mage bane give the 100 fatigue and stop the horror acting? If so fly + high mr + high attack skill + attack orders (no spells) might well work.

Re: Best guards when horror marked?

The doom horrors have save-or-die attacks so you need lots of MR. Their high fear aura also means that a victim could rout and die very easily upon taking damage

Re: Lanka is too strong.

Lanka is a new nation that was added in one of the patches. If you haven't done so already you should upgrade to the latest patch. If you have, you'll find them in the early era

Re: Best guards when horror marked?

Make sure you get the first attack. I've never tried mage bane, but it's pretty much the ultimate 1-on-1 weapon... if you don't strike first though, the horror may never give you a chance to strike...

Re: Best MA Calvary Unit

I would actually love to see some kind of mounted knightly commander for Man in a patch sometime. I'd be goo to be able to recruit and equip knight champions instead of waiting for heros. I think...

Re: Best MA Calvary Unit

Why gift-of-reason a KOA? Giving any commander a 5-gem flight item will allow them to lead KOA's across 3 provinces.

Re: Newbie Question: Joining The Living And The De

IMO ghosts are an excellent troop summon. The spell summons extra ghosts if you have high magic levels. IIRC a death 7 summoner will get 7 ghosts per casting. Death is quite easy to boost with items...

Re: Mindless Commanders?

Ah, but does 'relaying orders' really count as 'reason'? The existence of mindless commanders is fine with me, but I think gift of reason should remove the ability. It's true that I don't know what...

Re: What nation(s) are best for fire? (Besides Aby

Abysia are quite hard at first: you need to really take advantage of their fire immunity for them to be worth the cost, and their high resource cost is also a problem. Make sure you take productivity...

Re: EA Oceania on land

Sea trolls are quite weak, especially against land armies of HI etc. They don't even come close to their earth-magic equivalents. If you have water/nature mages I recommend Kydnides instead - size 2,...

Re: A severe problem

Invulnerability gives a substantial weakness to poison. You could probably take him out with some poison attacks, if you have access to them

Shouldn't 'gift of reason' remove the mindless tag? It seems a little strange otherwise.

Re: 2 Things this game desperately needs

I haven't seen them myself, but according to a thread a while back there are some 'dungeon' sites. A commander can enter these and possibly find treasure, but he might get attacked or hit by traps....

Re: 2 Things this game desperately needs

Weren't employed soldiers quite keen on rapine and pillage in mediaeval times too? I don't think making them unemployed would necessarily dramatically increase this.

Re: Maintenance of Mercenaries

Maintenance isn't 15%. It's something like 6.5% I think, less for sacreds. It shouldn't be that big a deal for most mercs unless you have them sitting around for ages - that's assuming you have to...

Re: strange commands

It could simply be another name for a regular command. 'Hear my dreams of R'lyeh' could be the same as preach, for instance.

Re: Horrors fly regardless of weather.

IIRC wearing the winged helmet also allows commanders to fly in a storm, assuming they have the 'fly' ability, that is.

Re: Suggestion: LE Ryleh - Dreamlands

Aren't the starspawn illithids immune to insanity? IIRC it's only the regular non-magical commander who gets affected.
