Hello players:
I have a few more general questions from a game I played listed below.
1) About magic sites, I’m playing Maverni & I found the Gomorrah magic site, which enables the recruiting of Ba’al, Raphalite warriors, and Melquart. I build a fortress, lab, and temple, but there were no additional recruiting options in the recruitment area, why?
2) I tried to use teleport for a druid that was heavily afflicted to a province where I had the chalice (on the other side of a large map), but when I cast ritual spell teleport, the only option it gave (for teleporting to) was the province I was currently occupying. Is this a bug,
or am I doing something wrong?
3) I had a very strong guy snuffed out extremely quickly by a horror mark,
he had A4 W3 E5 S6 D5 N3 and had the following items: dimensional rod, crystal shield, skullface, robe of invulnerability, boots of messenger, girdle of might, snake ring, and was loaded down with 20 gems covering all the paths he had. I’d thought he was pretty much invulnerable, especially with the robe-of-invulnerability, he had a 25+ protection. He got snuffed quickly by the very first attack by the horror, was I just incredibly unlucky (with the DRN, dominions dice roll) or do these horrors have some additional attack ability that I’m unaware of that makes a high protection mage basically useless? … It teleported next to my guy and just attacked physically, didn’t use magic.
4) I had another druid that listed (in the right-click possession’s view) him as susceptible to cold & poison. He had: staff of elemental mastery, starshine skullcap, robe of invulnerability, earth boots, ring of wizadry, tome of lower plains, and (clicking on fatigue) age 62(165)
. I was wondering why he was susceptible to cold & poison since none of these items had any negative effects (as many other items do) and his age was under the affliction range (62 < 165) ?
5) During several battles, I noticed a large grouping of my guys suddenly taking damage (green numbers appearing over a slew of my guys)
. The spells go by so quick it’s hard to follow what is happening & who is casting what. I think it’s from a leech spell, which the Lanka dudes seem to use a lot. Is this actually what’s happening or something else? And if so, what’s the best defense against it?
Thanks for the responses to my other posts, they helped a bunch ! I won the game by the way against the computer, Lanka just zapped out after a few key battles due to dominion .. it’s amazing what a good size dominion can do & a large map loaded down with temple in virtually every province
