Searching for sites multiple times ?

Hmm. Either you were mistaken about the earlier search, or you ran into a bug that I have not heard of before. Your understanding of the game mechanic is correct: searching a province in a given magic path a second time with a mage of equal or lesser power than you used for the first search will not reveal any more sites. And no site takes more than 4 in a path to reveal. The level 4 sites are very rare (and valuable).

No mistake on my part there as far as I can see, guys.

I just double checked to make absolutely sure : the info in the top left corner clearly says : this province has been checked by 2E 2D 3N 1B
My God (the Earthmother) is 2E3N and I definitely got NO results from that search as the Glen of Verdant Green is still the ONLY site in that province.
The Lamia Queen is 2N 2D 1B and I was very happy when I got the message that she had found a site on her very first search (province next to my capitol) as I figured it meant I had struck my first income of Death gems - so I could finally start thinking of those research enhancing skull caps.
Much to my surprise I didn't get Death gems but Nature Gems.

You should report this in the bug thread. And, if you have saved game files from before and after you searched, I'd suggest that you send the files to IW to help them track this bug down and squash it. [img]/threads/images/Graemlins/ooo.gif[/img]
