The cursed items for Mictlan can't be droped. I take it that it will be fixed for all cursed items.(?)

Do you have the artifact mod turned on? If so, simply tell the Artifact Warden to shapechange and they get dropped in the lab, despite being cursed. (If you don't have the mod turned on, the extra units are Asmegs instead of Artifact wardens, and thus can't drop the items by shapechanging.)

Where are we to send pretenders and such?

It works. Thanks.

Just set your pretender aside for the time being Folket. Don't make a new pretender for that nation until I put the server up. Then, the first time you connect, it will upload automatically when you select your nation.

is there a new updated artifact mod - with the changes to the twin spear?

Cainehill · #**107** December 19th, 2005, 02:20 AM

The artifact mod doesn't change the artifacts - it only changes the Asmeg into Artifact Wardens who are capable of dropping the artifacts regardless of cursed status.

The Twin Spear can't, apparently, be changed : even putting multiple Twin Spears in simply results in copies of the first (lesser horror calling) spear into the game, according to my tests.

This is correct. So the artifact mod that you currently have should be fine. I just placed the Conceptual Balance 5.1 mod up in the first thread alongside it for ease of download. Both mods will be required for this game - make sure to have both enabled before you build your pretender.

What you will recieve that will be new on the date of game start will be a new .map file with randomized start location. This file also contains what artifacts go to which nation and it will contain a Wraith Crown for Ermor instead of the promised Twin Spear.

Oh, I forgot to mention something which a few of you may have noticed by now. Due to the fact that the Artifact Wardens have only two hands I was forced to give a third (and even a fourth) warden to certain nations like TC and Machaka. Not really a big deal but I thought I would let you all know.

Ok hmm, got the map, got the mods, enabled the mods, made a pretender after the mods were enabled and made a game. No artifacts or wardens in sight.

What simple thing am I missing? I wish to practice!
