Spell: Cloud Trapeze

[DonCorazon]

If multiple commanders cast cloud trapeze to the same enemy province, do they land and fight together - or will each landing and subsequent battle occur separately?

Thanks,

They arrive separately from an invading army (or one busting out of a siege) at least.

All of the movement rituals will take effect, then the battle caused by all of the movement rituals happens in the next phase, but before troops movement.

So, it's possible to have people cloud trapeze in together and fight together, but due to the random order of spells it's also possible to have people mind hunt your cloud trapezeing units coming in if they suspect and get lucky with the ritual order.

Battles that result from Ritual movement happen before normal movement and movement battles, and happen together. It's a nice way to "catch" armies.

DC already knows about that http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/wink.gif

They will all fight together. I multiple Cloud trapezed / Teleported in to a Province in a mp game recently and they all fought together.

Sadly I also Teleported some mages in to the area an isolated SC of mine was moving in to and that didn't work out so well http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/tongue.gif

Yep just wanted to confirm that was what happened to my illl-fated earth king

All teleporters arrive in the same phase, before armies that don't move with magic. If you magic your way into an enemy province and move other troops there normally, your forces will be divided. If you teleport mages to your defending army, they will be there before any normal enemies get there, and fight during the first battle that is faught against enemies that used magic to arrive there.

Am I right that stealthed armies set to "attack this province" will fight at the same time as magically transported forces? Or do they attack after the movement phase?

[ano]

Yes, they will attack together with magically teleported/summoned units

[spacht]

To make it clear, stealthy troops on attack order will only fight during the magic battles phase (turn resolution nr. 6) if you combine them with magically transported troops or remote summonings targeted on the same province. By itself, stealthy troops on attack order will attack in the movement battles phase (turn resolution nr. 14).

As i learned in my last mp game this combination is really the only useful way to utilize stealthy troops.
