Wish has come up before. Apparently you can't see the text you type, but it is there and will work. To be fixed in the first patch, I believe. It always amazes me when people ask about this spell - I've been playing Dom for years, and have yet to go through the effort to cast it - would take one helluva long game.

Ritual of rebirth will I think only work if one of your own dead commanders is in the hall of fame.

I've used Ritual of Rebirth testing the latest patch as well as in earlier Versions. No problems so far, but Truper is right that it requires a unit to be in the Hall of Fame.

Also it doesn't work on non mummy undeads, but you can cast it again on the same mummy every time he dies, provided he remains in the hall of fame.

He's a beta tester.

Don't worry, it'll be out soon

There are some spells which do not appear to work. From the games I have played the following spells do not work:

Phantasmal Attack (air spell)
Call Lesser Horror (astral spell)
Call Horror (astral spell)

The above spells show as they were casted okay yet no battle ever takes place.

a few times Earth Attack causes a game crash when trying to view the battle showing an error of: 'bad vcr header' .

They should be allright once you patch.

It also works on some of the special undead available to Soul Gate Ermor, such as the wraith centurions. It also works on bane lords. I lost a wraith with a heroic strength of 43 through carelessness about my dominion borders, so was quite happy when I could bring him back as needed.

It isn't intended to, look forward to having them removed from the possible tragets.
