Here is executable to the game, Luke:

dom2.exe" --tcpclient --ipadr 24.90.74.183 --port 10275

Welcome back. And I had NO IDEA that you had 45 mages in that castle. Boy, did I ever get whipped bad!

Starvation comes to mind. Dominion is another idea. But yes, the answer is very carefully.

For some reason I can not take Caelum's turn. When it is at the nation select screen it does not show Caelum. Have I been set to computer controlled?

i watched the battle again

one ice devil died from poison after pythiums army retreated but my other ice devil has almost 300hp and was perfectly fine and pythiums forces were dead or routed and the battle ends and he is fine

so how the hell is he dead?

this has to be some type of bug

My first guess is that he failed a MR roll against a spell like decay and didn't have any regeneration items. That will kill him at the end of the battle regardless of hitpoints. The second is that you aren't using the same Version of the game as the host computer.

I just talked to the host. We are both on the same Version. The other party in the battle though I just found out is on another Version. And in his battle replay my ice devils got butchered real fast while in my replay I slaughtered all his troops.

BUT we have a new problem...I was Last person to do turn for it to host AND the game just time warped several turns backwards and its like this for 3 of us so far.

WTF!!!!

All I know is that this is getting very frustrating...should we kill the game or everyone make sure they are on 2.12 or whatever patch we agree upon bec all these bugs is making this not very fun.

On the battle replay I saw, both ice devils died quite easily. It was not even close. I lost 1 hydra and maybe a dozen vine ogres and several summer lions was all. Oh, and all my tritons died as well, but they were there only for the poison anyway.

In fact, my replay matched exactly the battle result. I even had several artifacts I found from the dead ice devils. I guess it is another result from the patch problem with the buggy replays.

Of course, with the game so messed up right now with the server reseting to before the battle, I would say this game has reached the FUBAR stage. The battle where I killed the ice devils has not even happened on the server now!

Very bad. I knew I should not have upgraded to 2.13.
