Re: Gem usage

Sorry, my brain wasn't working right. I was thinking "E2" meant "E1 after casting Summon Earthpower with 1 gem." Of course if he is a natural E2 he can do Summon Earthpower/Curse of Stones without...

Re: Dom3: Expansion Pack

Here's a high compliment for Dom3: since installing Dom3 on my computer, I don't think I've played a single game of Master of Magic to completion. No other game has ever been able to claim that...

Re: Gem usage

IIRC Curse of Stones is 3E/300 fatigue, so the answer is no. However, an E1S1 mage like in your first post could do Summon Earthpower/Power of the Spheres/Curse of Stones. Without POTS it's a no-go....

Re: Gem usage

Here's how it actually works: lch is correct that any gems required to cast the spell (fatigue/100) count against the limit without reducing fatigue or increasing paths. You can spend extra gems...

Re: Top 5 Time Waster

How do you do this.. I know it came out in the patch but I can't find it.[/QUOTE]

Hover over the item and hit 'l' (lowercase 'L'). It's quite nice. Yay for JK!

Re: Gem usage

The limit is per-cast, not per-combat. If I'm understanding you right, it would be perfectly okay for the mage to spend 1 earth gem to cast Summon Earthpower (now he's E2S1), a pearl to cast Power of...

Re: Should the Prince of Death kill population?

If you're doing it for thematic reasons instead of balance, maybe in addition to killing pop he could produce death gems. Harvesting their souls, as it were.

Re: Rings of Sorcery and Wizaerdry

Ring of Wizardry is better (boosts elemental paths too). Ring of Sorcery is cheaper. Because they're different items, you can use both at the same time.

Re: Dom3: Expansion Pack

I think by definition you're pretty much talking about a Dom4, since what we get from patches already is about as much as you could reasonably expect from an expansion pack. (Improved site searching...

Re: Two quick questions. (And a bonus niefel jarl!)

You don't need a skullface for that, just give him a death gem. Although I admit a skullface is logically simpler, at one death gem per combat it takes a lot of combats to make the skullface cheaper....

Re: Dom3: Expansion Pack

Has KO ever said that it's a game? IIRC he's only ever mentioned Illwinter's current "project". For all I know it could be a rocket-powered go-cart.

Re: Acashic records vs. separate spells

Do you mean enchantresses? Sorceresses are 2S2A, with some small chance of an extra path IIRC. They can remote search S or A just fine.

Re: God paths-random event relationship.

Is this the first time you've taken an E9 bless? To me that sounds like a fluke of the random number generator, unrelated to your magic paths.

Re: Retreating

I believe you are wrong here TheDemon.

all battles are fought at once, THEN all units retreat. so if you lose both battles, your units will have no where to retreat to.[/QUOTE]

Yes and no....

Re: Retreating

The fort itself (owned by A) counts as a special "virtual" province F which is adjacent only to the province P it is located in. No one will ever retreat into the fort. The besieging army (owned by...

Re: LA Agartha - Armies of Darkness

I don't oppose taking a good bless for Agartha, or even using blessed blindfighters in combat at some point (even though you tailor your bless to your Sepulchrals/TOs/mages). However, my experience...

Re: LA Agartha - Armies of Darkness

I love LA Agartha! I'm a sucker for strong recruitable-anywhere mages, especially with Death magic.

Re: Fatigue quick reference

I checked the description of berserk and saw no mention of added fatigue. I checked some old replays and indeed saw added fatigue though I...

Re: Acashic records vs. separate spells

Oh. I had no idea that old joke originated on South Park. I can't remember where I picked it up, probably from one of my labmates in school.

Re: Acashic records vs. separate spells

Can you elaborate? I've never watched South Park and I'm trying hard but failing to think of how gnomes relate to gem investment. Maybe there's another Max Wilson...?

Re: The 400

By the way, IIRC Tir na Nog's units mostly have Glamour, which makes them impossible to see in friendly lands. That may be why it looked like they had no defenses until their army suddenly "appeared...

Re: The 400

Blade Wind + Iron Bane doesn't do much more than just Blade Wind, since it needs melee blows to break armor and your mages won't target anyone in melee with your own troops. I.e. they both work, but...

It has a 50% chance of hitting any particular square each round. It's pretty useful if, for instance, you have an E9 blessing and sacred mages and he doesn't. Your mages will regain 4 FP per turn on...

Re: Diagonal Distance/Range

So displacing vertically on the battlefield is a LOT more effective at upping the range than I had previously thought.
