You can press 'h" as a shortcut to initiate hosting from the Play A Nation menu.

While viewing research you can filter by path. N is nature E is earth and so on.

The same applies to ritual casting. There it is VERY useful for casters who have multiple magic paths.

Wow, that is immensely helpful!

The filtering works everywhere, from battle scripting to rituals to research.

In case someone doesn't know already... You can copy and psate commanders' and units' orders. To paste, hover the mouse over the line of text that has the command and press Ctrl+number, and to paste hover mouse over the command and press a number. Commanders' orders can't be given to units and vice versa.

You can use 'y' key to give battle orders to all armies moving INTO the target province (instead of the armies that already are in the province).

I still don't get the y key...

Left-Click on a province you're moving multiple armies to, then press 'y'...

JimMorrison · #**126** June 1st, 2008, 04:35 AM

I think right-click maybe, and then Y.

...if you lose a mercenary bid you get your money back the next turn?

...in addition to increasing heat aura, Fire magic also increases the strength of fireshield? But it does not do that consistently. Apparently creatures with Fire Power get +1 per level of fire magic, while all others get +1 per 2 levels of fire magic (rounded down), except Chayot and Seraph, who don't get anything.

Did you also know that updating the fireshield display formula for the DB to reflect that is a goddamn pain in the arse and then some?

...if a blood mage dies in a battle, any of his unused blood slaves who somehow survive the battle are counted as negative regular units killed in the battle summary message?

I had a blood mage killed by a very lucky slinger, and the battle report showed -5 regular units killed.

Mage doesn't need to die to receive this effect. If he moves too far from his slaves, they become units not "gems".
I'm not sure if the reverse change is possible, though. Probably not.
