Added new unit issues into the shortlist.

Taqwus · #**1502** February 14th, 2008, 06:16 AM

Unit 1016, 'Commander of Ulm', for Late Era Ulm -- description says "The commanders of Ulm are clad in thick armor made from the Blacksteel of Ulm...", forging of which has been forgotten (and the commander has an ordinary Plate Cuirass, not Blacksteel).

Unit 739, Black Acolyte, should probably have a slightly different description from Black Priests; they don't yet know any magic, nor do they yet get an inquisitor bonus.

Hadn't paid attention to the 1016 description. Thanks for reporting that.

The Black Acolyte is a known issue that I have discussed privately with Kristoffer when the Great Fixing was done prior to patch 3.10. It is very much a legacy of the conjoining of both Iron Faith and Black Forest themes from Dom2. It is among a number of issues that will be changed in the future if he gets around to doing that. If and when that happens, LA Ulm will have some thematic changes which will fix this.

You can see the same legacy issues in Ashen Empire Ermor mage descriptions when you compare EA, MA and LA Ermor. This is also a result of basically parallel histories forced into the same timeline and then divided into eras. These are issues that Kristoffer will solve in his own good time.

That post by Taqwus actually made me work on the Ulms today.

I'm home today. I believe someone in the building is sneaking around with a bane venom charm. I figured I could as well do something about Ulm. I'm quite satisfied with developments.

Love and kisses from an Ulm fan.

Yeehaa! Ulm always has been my favorite nation in all eras and that is good news indeed! Thanks, Kristoffer!

...and Iron Blizzard?

Any MA or LA Ulm help would be great!

His pretender was called back to my province. On the first turn of battle he changed from dragon to human form. On the second turn he routed. He died on the retreat. I did *NOT* get the message about killing his pretender. This same battle has happened a few more times. If I kill him on the battlefield I get the message, if he retreats and dies I don't. (He's lost all his magic by now, I've got dominion 10 in the province and he's has this never healing wound affliction for quite a while--in theory he should have 0 hp but he always has a few.)
