Re: undead question

Thanks for that. I'd looked in the manual, but it didn't specify. The in-game descriptions are often not that specific.

I'll have to test Leeching Darkness when I get the chance.

Re: undead question

Yes. I know.

That doesn't speak to "this case". Which was, from my original question:

Shadow Brand/Leeching Darkness and Life for a Life.

I have memories of Shadow Brands not working on...

Re: undead question

I know there is a difference, that's why I mentioned it. Does the difference make a difference in this case?

Re: undead question

Really? I haven't checked in awhile, but I remember Shadow Brand not working on undead. Or at least not on lifeless undead.

On a similar note, does Life for a Life works on undead (or lifeless...

Re: Good blood summoning spells?

Yes.
It's pretty much what blood is about.

What you use in any given game depends on what cross-path mages you've got. For the troops, Devils and Demon Knights are particularly good, Storm...

Re: LA Game - World of Symmetry 8/10 left

My scout certainly wasn't set to attack, so it does seem that patrolling all happens first. Which it does in the turn order. Doesn't make a lot of sense, but isn't likely to cause a lot of problems. ...

Re: CBM 1.8 released

Another problem with making the Chalice cost LOTS (which it would need to) is that you can't do that without giving it really high path requirements. (6S6N)?

Re: CBM 1.8 released

Or simply remove the Chalice. It has other uses, but overwhelmingly it's for tarts.
Edit: As Soyweiser says, disease (and old age) would be much less of a problem.

Re: CBM 1.8 released

I still maintain the fundamental problem with Tartarians is the afflictions. More specifically, that at most two nations can heal the afflictions.

If you price them for those nations, then...

Re: LA Game - World of Symmetry 8/10 left

I hate to do it, but I'm going to have to ask for another delay. I had time today, but I've just been drafted to spend the day trying to clear a foot of ice off a friend's roof.

Re: Mother of serpents and tarts

Standard healing ability doesn't work on undead.

Or old people, for that matter.

Only Gift of Health or the Chalice work on either.

No need to verify, it's not uncommon. As you suggest with Abysians, never send a Nature mage into battle with Abysians. He will find a way to cast Protection on them.

Re: LA Game - World of Symmetry 8/10 left

Executor, I'm going to have to ask for a day's delay.
I've gotten much of it done, but this is an important turn and I just don't have any more time before the deadline.

Thanks

Re: A new pretender. The King in Yellow

15 Fear is a lot. It may well be overpowered. Certainly not untouchable, even with awe, since there are plenty of things immune to fear, most (all?) of which are also immune to awe.

Re: A new pretender. The King in Yellow

Well the Lord of Night also has fear, though not 15 so, again, it's not unique.

It would be ridiculously OP as a regular recruitable or summonable assassin, but as a pretender? Even with the fear...
