Whoa, who gets a 1000 gold mage?

Itza (Sombre's Lizardmen mod nation). Sounds like a Slann got killed by some Sylvanian bats!

Sadly yes

If that had been an mp game I probably would have cried.

Yes, all the older players use scouts/spys to carry gems for the battlefield...

They sneak in so they can't be mind-hunted or other such things...

I did know about transfering gems. I didn't know I can select commander XD. No more "A gives to B, B gives to C, C gives.. oh crap, he can give only to B" XD

This was in SP, so no face-palming involved, but still some good

:

Playing Rlyeh with a rainbow pretender. Had him cast twiceborn . Lost him fighting in friendly dominion, but he isn't back in the capital next turn. Set priests to call god. A few turns later, I get a message that "(my pretender) the wight mage drowned". Apparently wight mages can drown even though they are dead. I succeeded in permanently killing my pretender, since he dies if recalled to the capital

You can cast a global called Thetis Blessing and he will not drown the next time he revives.
