Re: Best way to force wight-mage conversion?

Can you cast seeking arrow/similar spells on your own provinces? How about assassination spells like earth attack? You wouldn't lose the province with either option (but the mage does have to be...

Re: Random Map Errors

Well, I don't consider the first one a problem - long mountain ranges do have passes through them sometimes. It makes things interesting. I chalk it up to the graphical mountains not necessarily...

Re: Frostmorne27

I think Ulmish troops need either a few more points of skill, or a slight reduction in blacksteel armor encumbrance/defense penalties, or both. If that isn't enough, maybe a couple more HP and...

Re: Most powerful nation

It is possible to start with more than one province - wouldn't this tend to tone down the "monster expander because it easily massacres indies with 0 losses" nations, as well as reduce the number of...

Re: Most Usefull Research Path...

Blood isn't as self-sufficient as it looks though - you don't get any blood thorns or brazen vessels or even SDRs without Construction. That makes a lot of spells inaccessible except to your...

Re: Poll: Is Clam Hording Too Good?

It takes thousands of gold worth of mages to implement any of those (except maybe the earth buffs, which takes thousands of gold *and* resources worth of army + a few hundred gold mage).

Anyway,...

Re: Poll: Is Clam Hording Too Good?

SCs and Thugs have been getting weakened since Dom I and they *still* dominate. I'd say try this out before concluding that it will be abusive.

Breathing items would indeed be a very nasty use of...

Re: Poll: Is Clam Hording Too Good?

I like Cheezeninja's idea of a shatter spell targeted at a province. Items could be affected based on their construction level or something (very low/no chance of destroying an artifact, but cons-2...

Re: Blood Magic, Demon Knights, and Vampires

Why did they lose etherealness anyway? Even if they were overpowered it seems like the wrong fix, taking away one of their thematic and interesting strengths. They could have just lost some...

Re: telestic animate support group

Can they perform blood sacrifices if summoned by a nation that normally can? Might be a cheap alternative to Anathemants for Abysia doing a dominion push. They're also not capitol only, which could...

Re: Damage shields (Fire Shield etc)

I have another question: if the damage shield comes from a shield item (eg Charcoal Shield), does the defender have to block an attack with the shield to trigger its effect? What about reverse...

Re: Mists of Deception -- exploit??

If you can end a global by killing the caster, you should be able to end a battlefield enchantment the same way, IMO (and for item-autocast spells, by killing the item's wielder). Retreating is a...

Re: Bug with Maggots

Speaking of poisoning things that are immune to poison, how exactly does The Sharpest Tooth work? It just ignores the poison resist stat and deals its poison damage anyway?

Re: Your Favorite Magic Path

Re: Heat & Grip & Flaming?

So a summer lion would still be hit by the arrow even though it's immune to the additional fire effect? Interesting.

Are there any spells that make melee weapons magical? Weapons of Sharpness? ...

Re: AN damage

It might be easier to get them to fail an MR roll than to fail a protection roll against a mere 6AP. Even with +4 attack from F8 you're not going to get many unshielded hits, and that means you're...

But most nations that have an H3 priest at all (aside from prophets) also have an H2 anywhere; Mictlan is one of the very few...
