Strange. Everything is as Jomon says, I confirm. In battle Jomon's pretenders flees almost unharmed. But I also got an afterbattle report which states that I found some items that were on the Jomon's pretender. The only explanation I see is that battleview doesn't reflect what actually happened on the battlefield, such things happened to me several times in other games.

Yes thats a know bug, thus the battle view is incorrect and the pretender was actually killed in battle, had it happen to me 2 or 3 times and I can assure you I have had my immortal pretender killed because of it when given the strengths of both sides, he should not have.

Only one thing you can do, swear like crazy and suck it up...oooops thats two things.

As far as I remember we came to a conclusion that under the hood game mechanics works correctly - one side wins, another loses. But due to some annoying bug battle movie might be wrong and show another outcome. Following that logic my troops somehow managed to kill the jomonese leader. I still wonder how it could be possible.

Jomon, did you order your troops to retreat after couple of earthquakes? Or your orders were to continue fighting?

Because you choose to cast rather then fight with your god, I do actually see the potential for his death. The only way Atlantis was going to punch through his heavy armor and overcome his regeneration was through fatigue in my opinion. If your troops didn't retreat when they did and your god decided to cast just one more spell, then he could have been easily swarmed by undead and killed. In my battle view Atlantis was creeping a bit too close to your god when he finally woke up and retreated.

AreaOfEffect,

Sorry but I don't have time to play turn 45 properly and there has been no interest in my search for a sub. I regret it very much but I must go AI.

I hope to see you all on another Dominions battlefield in the future and prove beyond any doubt that the Democratic and Peace-Loiving People's Republic of Pythium is destined to rule any world you care to mention.

All the best,
Steve, Overseer, Central Committee

I find it hard to understand how he died. But me bad play, no good placement in battlefield, no good mouvement on the map, no clear strategy for the long time (only for next turns). But i learn many things in this game, i'm happy. You (Chelms and Atlantis) are realy better strategy as me. Me no good priority for build good stratégie with finess (me bad use and coordination item+spell+leader+troops). I hope be better in the next game. Thank all, sorry for bad english, good end game ( I play the next turns for my allied, but it's the end for kingdom of Jomon ).

Seen your message a while ago. Just figured I confirm your need to a delay come turn 47.

Updated main page with the status of Pythium.
