Any undead can catch diseases, I believe. Getting afflicted by them is a bit odd, though.

Entering sites is not restricted by nation. Homemonsters and homecommanders are.

Did you know ... if your MR drops to -1, then you die?

Foul Vapors + Life After Death = souless mage, MR5.
Feeblemind affliction = MR1.
Wielding Eye of Void = MR-1 ... oops! Unit vanishes in a puff of logic.

Log shows:

damage 9999 on Soulless, spec0x0 ba0^M
looseallitems: cnr 921(Dernan) unr 3684^M

Did you bring this unit into a battle?

Thanks Jim ... I should have tested more.

I just tested, and created a MR = -3 dragonfly, and it doesn't die in battle. I had tons of undead leadership on the field when my Soulless died. So I wonder what killed it?

It was unit #921's turn to move, but instead of moving, he just up and died.

instagib by a soul slay?

(or maybe any other effect that magic resistance normally negates, but this time scored a critical hit?

No, I was fighting barbarians, and they were retreating when my Eye-wielding mage finally got zomfibied. Had the Ankh on a different unit, and cast Foul Vapors. No other BEs were in effect.

Sufficiently high levels of forge bonus can allow you to forge for free?

I currently have warrior smiths with hammers in a province with the Steel Ovens, with Forge of the Ancients up (I'm playing SP to learn) and they forge 5-gem items for free. Potentially more significantly, they forge 40-gem items for 6, so there is additional reduction beyond the normal 80% cap.

-3 != -1
-2 != -1

...perhaps -1 is significant? i.e a != -1 vs. > 0 check in code.

Do negatives of other attributes behave this way for -1 vals?
