Re: Quick scripting question

As I learnt recently, if you script to cast a spell and it can't be cast (e.g. insufficient level or gems, or already cast), the mage will "substitute" not "skip". So you could do that in the script...

Re: Twice Born and Items

No, it makes you appreciated! Some of us (I speak for newbs and others like myself who are mentally challenged) do not find it as easy to test things as yourself.

Re: Tax Advice

According to the manual, each 3% tax > 100% kills 0.1% population. (I wonder if that should be 5%, so that unrest +/-1 per 3% is symmetrical?)

But per my agument, that's just percentages anyway,...

OK, bbz, the above sounds a bit more like it :)

Re: Battle script substitution?

@bbz
My understanding on both these 2 points was as per @thejeff.

You said you can re-sermon troops, thejeff/I think not?
I certainly did not think buffs like you said could help opponents.

Re: Battle script substitution?

Ah, I did not realise that you could Fanaticise/Sermon more than once on a unit --- I assumed, like a buff, there was a one-time raise of morale and no possible re-affectation.

When you banish,...

Re: Tax Advice

That one seems to me to depend on what you mean by "more dramatic". As you say, since most everything is multiplied together, you get more of an absolute number but equally you lose more in the long...

Re: Battle script substitution?

OK, let me try another one. It's to do with what mages "can" or "can't" or "won't" do.

I'm think especially of holy spells, like bless, sermon or banish.

For bless/sermon, do I detect that...

Re: Battle script substitution?

I had not appreciated that at all (wondered if it was feeble-minded or something). That makes a lot of difference. I had laid out so that expensive spells were at the beginning, without worrying...

Re: pre game alliances...

I have oranges. You want oranges. So I put the price up.
If there are other suppliers of oranges, we get together, burn the excess oranges, and put the price up.
So the Government nationalises...

Battle script substitution?

I was under the impression that if a mage cannot execute one command in his script (e.g. he doesn't have enough gems, or his level isn't currently high enough) he would skip and proceed to the next...

Re: Resources less important than Income?

Thanks rdonj. Though I wouldn't rate my chances of getting 15 provinces in year 1 as any nation!

WRT CBM, then, I have asked this before, and might even start another thread. I may be about to...

Thank you! I've played a few of those games, and I don't like them as much as Dom3 :(

Re: communion mechanics

Because scouts show up all the tiume when you click "n" through your units, I try to avoid building many! But I understand what you guys are saying, thanks.

Re: What attack spells work under water?

Re: How to counter devils

Excuse my ignorance, but is Holy "Banish Demon" inadequate? Damage not enough? Insufficient priests, too many demons? Priests get swamped by flying demons too early?

Re: Illwinter Next Project

Re: communion mechanics

Could you/someone please clarify: even if there is a range involved, are you saying that mages help themselves to one another's slaves, unlike gems?? If that's so, it does make planning harder.
