REAL NEW BUG-- Iron Will casting removes blessings

I didn't send the files to Illwinter. But, if I remember correctly, the case was that the Tartarian (and any other SCs I had) didn't get twist fate when I put the shroud on him, but after a turn of wearing the shroud the twist fate icon appeared. I don't know if this means that the twist fate effect wasn't up, or that just the icon didn't appear.

Twist Fate is refreshed on casting of appropriate spell, or during one of the magic phases of turn resolution. I'm sure this is to avoid some sort of potential exploit. Regardless, it is WAD, and it should appear the next turn without fail (unless it absorbs a Seeking Arrow or something, then you still won't see it, but it will have saved you!).

Ah, it does absorb non-battlefield damage. That is one of the things I was hoping (but not actually expecting) to get out of the bless. I'm glad the IW crew pays attention to such details. Thanks for the confirmation.

Yes, just remember that normally Sacred troops must be Blessed in combat, so only your Prophet, and anyone wearing a Shroud will be protected outside of combat.
