Unit# 553 Jotun Skratti has old age at 200 in Skratti form, but this changes to 400 in U#1653 Jotun Wolf and U#1652 Jotun Werewolf forms. (U#1653 and U#1652 are already in the shortlist because of age issues with mods, but the change shape issue is not listed).

Weapon number 336 (the Deadliest Poison), which acts as a secondaryeffect for the artifact "The Sharpest Tooth", is bugged. It does not affect poison immune creatures, like hinted in the description of the artifact "The Sharpest Tooth" (weapon number 337, Item Number 112 ).

I tested this by making a quick mod whic gave some C'tis troops the Sharpest Tooth as a weapon and the bidding them against modded 100hp sitting duck units, some which had posionres 100 and others didn't. The poisonres 100 units did not take any poison damage from units using the Deadliest Poison or The Sharpest Tooth as weapons (I tested both possibilites).

The mod I used is attached to this post.

Edit: Not a bug!

If I had bothered to scroll down a little more, or paid attention to the icon more closely, I would have seen that the Kokythiad was leading 5 non-flying units. Duh. Sorry!

Unit #1477 Kokythiad is amphibious and stealthy. I gave a Kokythiad in a coastal (land) castle a pair of winged shoes. The Kokythiad's possible movement did not change at all. The "Flight" icon appears on the Kokythiad view unit screen, but the Kokythiad does not get any overland flight.

The castle the Kokythiad is located in is friendly and not sieged.

Specifically, the Kokythiad is unable to fly over any enemy land territory. The Kokythiad is even unable to fly over 2 consecutive friendly land provinces into a 3rd friendly land province. If I give the winged boots to a Commander (Unit#34) instead, he can fly to any land province within 3 moves.

To know for mapmaking :
[img]/threads/images/Graemlins/Fish.gif[/img] Only aquatic magic sites seem to appear on Sea + (most land terrains) - so underwater mountains may be used for a sea with more ressources.
BUT [img]/threads/images/Graemlins/Bug.gif[/img] Deep Sea + (a land terrain) may make land sites appear (at least seen with deep sea + cave and deep sea + mountain)

Despite lots of people trying to combine sea provinces and caves, like last seen in the World of Geometry map, the sea / deep sea should not be combined with any other terrain modifier by design. I have asked about exactly the same thing some weeks ago and I was told that this is WAD.

Info on two bugs:

If you start a new game after playing dom3, without exiting the application, then provinces can have "Ghost" neighbors. This causes dominion problems and counts towards the "more than 6 neighbors" bug.

If your province has more than 6 neighbors, and you do not have positive dominion in the 7th neighbor (in map file order), your beneficial scales will decrease in your province. If you also do not have positive dominion in the 1st neighbor, then the beneficial scales will evaporate in your province.

MOD :

Game (may) crash at game creation stage if a mod using nametype 148 or 149 is enabled.

edit : It seems a really strange bug as other modders didn't have a crash using 148 (but if I only change a #selectnametype 143 by 148 I have a crash with Greyhawk mod).

Seige bonuses from items on commanders don't stack. In other words a cleaver (+50) and a wall shaker (+25) = 50.

I am not sure if this is a bug or intended. It seems both items use the same effect and that is why they do't stack.

In one of my current MP games i had it twice that a whole army didn't move (different turns). The commanders + units just stand still, ignore the move order and do nothing. I never had this before in all my other games.

The only special is that i used a mixed of stealth & non-stealth commanders but all got the "move" command (approved).

At least in one case i'm sure that no other army tried to intercept me. I never got a battle on the province. Mysterious for me.

I've seen it a lot. This is not a new bug, it's a very very old one. Might even date back to Dominions 2. It's happening only occasionally, but pops up from time to time in games.
