Default Re: FAQ Discussion & Submissions

You can't heal afflictions from replacement parts without getting rid of the parts -- but the parts (hearts and eyes) are pretty much always cursed, so you can't get rid of them except by

* death
* transforming into something that doesn't even have misc slots
* possibly, casting Wish for a misc item and getting an item bounced out -- but haven't experimented to see what the order of precedence is (first slot? non-cursed items bounced first?)
* and if it's a unique part (The Green Eye, say), somebody else can pull it out via Wish, into their own misc slots

Default Minor notes:

Blessing section doesn't mention the cap on the Astral bless (max MR). Death Curse isn't explained; this is an obvious follow-up.

Some other questions that seem to be fairly common:
- Why aren't my <duplicate magic items> stacking?
(design decision)
- What is the best nation for a newbie?
(snarky answer: depends on preferred playing style)
- How do I cure insanity?
(can't)

Q: Who is this Norfleet I keep hearing about?
A: Shhhhhh! We no longer speak that name. He was once the most powerful of our wizards. But he used his power for evil.
Oh wait, that is Voldemort.
Yes that is the answer. Norfleet is our Voldemort.

Default Re: Minor notes:

I'd remove excessively pedantic technical information that is not likely to be very useful for novices. The list of disease-causing units, for example, or the exact magic requirements for faerie queens.

Also, remove the <text in brackets>, it's <annoying> to <read>.

Can I copy the FAQ to the Dom 3 entry on the Strategy Wiki?

Ok, done it. I reworked the 'odds and ends' section into forts, modding and miscellaneous.
