Wind ride

[SelfishGene]

Doesn't one of the boots (Boots of Trampling?) confer resistance to Wind Ride?

I think it is bugged. At least it is reported as such in the beta forum.

Unless someone recently has seen it work I would consider it broken.

It works-inconsistently. But if you have the air mages and air gems to waste-it does work at times.

If the commander is over size 2 though, when it does work it only moves him 1 or 2 provinces. So if you are trying to give a big size commander a ride, make sure you do not drop him in a province you do not want him in.

Please let us know if the wind ride works on friendly commanders. It seems to be broken vs enemies. We would like to get some info on this.

I had Wind Ride fail on a my Ivy King (no items) which didn't have anything of Tuidjy's list above. Is there a chance Wind Ride will fail even if the commander is wind-rideable? Otherwise it seems broken.

Edit: Ok, since Ivy King is size3 distance was the problem.

A fun use for a friendly size 3 or 4 raiding commander in enemy land is to wind ride him every turn. He would have no way to predict what province would be hit next!

I was not able to get it to work on anything. Enemies, independents, my own units. Im very unhappy (and did report it in the beta forum)
