I can spare a few gems...

All,

I have a problem. A critical mage has disappeared. I have used F1 to check and she is gone. Further, there was no battle in the province in question. Nor was she mind hunted, arrowed or earth attacked. In fact, I have a message stating that she successfully cast GOR and I have the unit which GOR was cast one. There is no message stating she died of disease. I have used GOR in test games and the caster does not disappear. She is just gone.

I am not one to whine and don�t ask you to wait when I will miss turns, but this unit is rather important to the outcome of the game. If one of you somehow killed her, I am impressed and will soldier one. However, if this is a game bug, it is not great for any of us. I can not just purchase or re-summon another one. Since it is my GOR unit, you can see why I am concerned.

The unit was named Kyra. Any ideas? Especially my close friends Nero, Ulm or Ryleh, who could quite possibly killed her.

My agents in Bandar-Kadek reported they saw a pale cloaked woman willing to embark nightly for the northern lands. No doubt she fled your realm of terror.

More seriously, I didn't took part in this even if I would have gladly burnt her to the stake.

I fear you face a game bug.

Sax -FWIW I have cast GoR with no ill effects in this game. It certainly would be obvious if that caster disappeared. Perhaps post on the main forum for more ides?

Which province was she in?

If it was me then you should have got some mind hunt or seeking arrow message. I killed two of your commanders this turn but I think they were both in the sea.

Howdy,

I am at work and do not have access to the game, sorry. I will double check the number of distance spell killings, but I am pretty sure they tally with Ylvali's count. I think it was a bug. I will post on the main board and if Edi or one of the others think it is useful, I will post them the turn file.

So be it, it is like when you twist your ankle playing sports. You have to get up and keep going. I will work to overcome this and shall try and find a way to drive the Menace from the North into a grave. That way I can re-animate them as cup bearers. I do need more waiters in my feasting hall...

All,

My bad, it turns out there is a good reason for this. Here is what I got on the main forum

Also - was she a hama dryad or naead or nature spirit of any kind?
-----------------------------------------------------------

Sounds like it. Those have an effect which is like Disease (doesn't recover HP, loses 1 HP per month) when she leaves her home province. I really think the game should reflect this by showing an affliction when the spirit is suffering from this.

In other words, my unit was going to die, but the game is mildly bugged and does not inform you when they die from this. Sorry for the confusion, I guess that is why this is a newbie game. Many thanks for your replies, some of which included information that was confidential. On the plus side, you all now know my plan!
