"Ten Thousand Things" question

"then thousend things" must be one of my favorite sites. Not because it's good (though obviously it is), but because it sets my imagination running. Another one along those lines that caught my fancy is "Cave of Black Roses", or something along those lines.

Chasm of Black Roses

Some magic sites are magical. I remember my very first game of Dominions. It was Dominions 1. I played the Old World map as C'tis. The province next to me had the Cedar Pillars magic site. It left a staying impression at me for some reason. Another one was Vale of Infinite horror I found when playing caelum in one Dom 1 game.

If I remember correctly, "Ten Thousand Things" is a Taoist expression for all the things of the world that distract those who haven't become sages.

... Which is why it doesn't produce astral pearls. Ahaha, nice.

I love Ten Thousand Things. One of my favorite sites, for sure. Pity I've only found it in SP.

I've already had this one several times.

I don't think it comes w/ a patch ... IIRC, I had it a long time ago.

I hope v3.14 bring us new things, and more variety undersea ...

I think it's linked to the Master of the Five Elements instead, where the fifth element is represented by Nature in Dominions.

It was around for Dom:PPP, the Master of Five Elements only arrived with Dom II.

Sorry, let me clarify: the idea of the Five Elements, and how they are represented in Dominions.

I found a bug with one battle spell mod command.
It doesn't work on non commanders. I modded an archer, gave him #onebattlespell "Eagle Eyes", and he didn't get the precision bonus. I made the same archer recruitable as a commander, and he got the bonus.
