Newbish question

[mathusalem]

just a quick question : is army of gold / lead stacks ?

[Endoperez]

Manual lists both as Ironskin, so the prot part doesn't stack. The units will get both +4 MR and 50% fire resistance.

Late age is played a bit less than the two other ages, but it's not like you'll have trouble finding games of any age. Newbie games of all kinds are starting up on a fairly regular basis. (And no-one will stop you from joining a non-newbie game either if you feel up to it. )

I have a couple of questions about attacking armies.

I have watched my battles but am not really sure if I saw things clearly.

1. Does Attack (and then say archers, closest, ect) mean that there is no 2 turn wait like Hold and Attack.

2. does Fire and Flee mean the archers are useless for the rest of the battle?

3. If I put my Cavalry behind a another unit anf the other unit is on Hold and attack but the CAV is NOT on hold but rather just Attack rear units, will going thru the troops in front of them cause loss of cohesion or any damaging effects to either group?

Starting to get this part down...(Magic is going to be a struggle)but one thing at a time.

Thanks for helping!!

1 yes, troops attack immediately

2 never tested it, but remenber your troops will be scatered among all neighbouring friendly provinces after the battle, if the battle lasts long enougth for them to leave the battlefield.

3 I highly recommend not to put a rapid troop behind a slow one : the rapid group will split in two, and pass along the flanks of the rapid group if there is any place.

Fire and flee is fun with sacred archers with death blessing. Amusing raiding...

in a Game played as EA VAN I see where for every 4 (or 5) Temples my Dominion Max can go up one.

But I don't seem to be able to build the temple Building itself.

By taking a enemy fortress or a province do I get a 'Temple' or are temples destroyed with conquest?
