Moving Immobile Pretenders

Is there any other way besides Teleport? Tried giving a Flying Carpet but that didn't work.

lol.. that would have been funny to see: the peasants busting their arses lifting up a big, divine statue to jam a flying carpet under it, and then it doesnt work.. suckers!

I think it is too bad that Gateway no longer works. Astral Travel, ok; but to a friendly lab with Gateway, that SHOULD work.

Cloud Trapeze should allow the pretender to move (with Air magic).
Returning (Astral magic) should work too, even if you dont have a lab in the province, but you need a battle for the spell to trigger (Send Lesser Horror ? ask another player to attack the province with a scout ?). Untested.
Cheers

from the 2.08 readme:

* Sphinx cannot teleport.
* Most travel spells (all but teleport) cannot be used by immobiles.

It seems teleport is the only way.

well, you could leave your fort undefended, lose your god, and then recall him in a different location...
