Default Re: Temples/Labs vs 1st turn seige

I think what StormCrow want to know is whether combat take place before or after construction upon resolution of a turn.

If it's after, then the temple will be built and safe inside the fort as Torin said. If it's before, then the priest will not be able to build the temple because it will be in a besieged fortress. I think it's after: a few time I attacked a province without fort and ended up sieging a newly built fort finished that very turn.

Could anyone confirm ?

Well, it's not exactly clear what should happen in this situation. Since you can't give orders to build a temple when you are under siege, you might not be able to complete a temple that was ordered to be built in the turn where you are about to become sieged. (In a province where you already have a fort.)

I tested this scenario to see what would happen: the temple will be built inside your fort. So even though construction occurs after all battles, your people were able to finish building the temple inside the fort, with trees they chopped down before your province got invaded . Tree-chopping happens before combat, it is undocumented turn resolution sequence 2.b Tree Chopping. (joke)

Here's a link to a Battle Simulator map useful for testing this sort of thing, from Gandalf Parker:

Thanks for taking a look! And for the testing site. I'll make a note of it.

In my particular situation the big bad went elsewhere so my Temple was built in peace.
