Default Pasha Mama, The Mother of All Flukes

That was so huge a fluke, that I'm not even going to give my usual whine/boast.

Really, that was possibly the biggest fluke I've seen in dom2. Until this the winner was perhaps when mages started targeting mechanical men (mindless =immune to mind spells) with mind burn and enslave mind and such, but this certainly takes the cake. Words fail me.

Hey, so what is this doomsday weapon, and what was the fluke? I'm curious...

The "fluke" is that Jurri is finally losing, and he does not like the taste of his own medicine.

(Actually, I am quite pleased how luck is working in my favor.)

The fluke... it was that one of his commanders with a nice artifact (Nathgul... or however you spell it) decided to blink which gave my mages a chance to zap him and take the artifact. Yay!!!!!

I'm not entirely convinced that the stupid jar is the culprit, though: all other spells it casts are shown normally (Nethgul has cast ...), and in this instance no message was shown. Also, the description of the thing clearly states that it will cast spells on enemies. Also, I for one have never seen the [censored] thing act like this before. Usually it just casts enslave mind, enslaves a critter that later dies and causes a rout. Guess this time it figured out the best way to piss in my porridge would be teleporting to one of the very few dangerous places on the battlefield, outside the fort and next to a dude with a wand of incineration. (The aforementioned enslaving wouldn't have caused a rout in this battle. Instead it would have slowed down your army a fatal step or two.)

Well, be it as it may, I'm through caring. Good riddance, and hopefully the [censored] jar of stupidity loses as many battles to you as it has for me. I don't even mind losing the fort due to the fluke: you need all the handicap you can get!
