2) I think he either lacks a head, or has a crown grown-in. And/or it's a philisophical lesson and/or humor. I think he can still use a treelord's staff, though.

Default Several questions

1) I had a triton lord (move 2/x) and nothing but shark knights in his troops (move 2/x). How come they can't move 2 sea provinces? They're aquatic so they can't go on land to move 2, so either they should be 1/x creatures or else is there some way to get aquatic creatures on land (like the barrel of air in reverse?).

2) How come the Ivy King can't wear his own crown? What's he do, just set it down on his throne next to him? I suppose it's balance but dang it that was the only reason I summoned him

3) 2 turns in a row I got an event I hadn't seen before where a count revealed himself as a vampire and attacked my province which lost and became independent. Is this just a random event or is it a spell cast by an opponent that I couldn't find in the manual (there's a lot of spells, I could have missed it, haven't used death or blood much yet).

4) I had cast Lord of the Hunt or whatever it is, the high level spell that hunts down enemy priests (wish I'd saved that slot for something else but I hadn't tried it yet, anyway...) I got this summary once:

Commanders 1 Killed -1
regulars 24 Killed 21

Enemy
Commanders 1 Killed 1

How do I get -1 friendly commanders killed? I watched the replay and couldn't figure it out, it rather annoyed me as I was hoping the spell would end so I could cast something else and I refused to dispel my own spell (if you even can, I didn't try it, I'd assume you can).

Thanks in advance!

1) only 1 move in sea provinces.

3) It's just an even, I've seen it happen quite often. It could be scale-related so it only happens if you pick the right (or actually the wrong) scales.

4) -1 means that you started with 1 and ended with 2. There are plenty of spells that cause this, charm and enslave mind for example. I think lord of the hunt can cast charm all right. Due to the nature of the battle I think it's only normal that you didn't get to keep him.
