Did you know that? (Dominions trivia) - Page 17

...you can still go Berserk when you're paralyzed? Your Protection goes up and you accumulate fatigue equal to your Berserk each turn.

I guess your body's still pumping adrenaline even though you can't actually *do* anything.

Does anyone know what happens to an immortal with twiceborn if it dies in friendly dominion?

...Agarthan Wet Ones change shape underwater like Mermen?

You probably didn't know that because there's no reason to ever recruit them[1].

[1] Not *quite* true. They are identical to Pale Ones except they don't have bucklers, which is normally bad, but if you just need a bunch of soldiers to siege a fort that's good because you can recruit twice as many per turn. Normally you wouldn't do that, though, because Agarthan militia are also resource cost 2 and cost only 7 gold instead of 10. But since militia have slightly worse stats than the already-chaffy Wet Ones, and worse Morale, maybe you'd take Wet Ones over militia if you were expecting to come under Fear attacks like from Wailing Winds or the Horror Harmonica, from the fort you're besieging. Maybe.

Aside from that, there's no reason to ever recruit them. Except to look at the pretty underwater graphics.

Edit: no, wait! Wet Ones also get +1 to attack/defense underwater, which means they are superior to Pale Ones for underwater expansion.

Yeah the wet ones are for underwater operations, obviously :]

Thought that was well known. Don't they also get extra AP?

I knew the wet ones were *supposedly* for underwater operations, but I could never before figure out why, since their stats are exactly the same on the commander screen except no buckler. (Unlike, say, Atlantis' Deep Ones vs. Atlantaean Militia.)

...Phoenix Pyre doesn't work in the magic nightmare from Vengeance of the Dead? Your caster neither explodes nor comes back to life, even if he's under 100 fatigue. I wonder if it's a special environment that prevents #secondshape from working.

Phoenix Pyre probably doesn't use secondshape to work. You could test it with a unit that definitely does (use secondshape) though.

MaxWilson · #9 January 19th, 2009, 07:22 AM

Phoenix Pyre does (seem to) use secondshape or something like it--it's known that Chayot with Phoenix Pyre up don't get their #secondshape if they die with over 100 fatigue, they just explode and die.

You're right that you could double-check by VotD'ing a unit of Chayot or a Machakan spider knight commander or something.

If you make a unique summon your prophet, and it gets killed, and you summon it back within 6 months, it's still your prophet (Ice Devil in my case).

Things I don't know:
- What if someone else summoned your killed prophet unit?
- What if it was more than 6 months and you summoned it again?
