Re: Dammit

So if he takes troops with him, he routs when they rout. If someone else takes the troops in, he routs when they rout anyway. What's the point? Isn't there a way to accompany an SC without causing...

Re: Astral Serpent - am I missing something?

Hmmm. I swear it doesn't say "Death Poison" at the bottom of the description in my inv. Never mind, thanks for the tip. From the description of how poison works, that's a maximum of 4.5 damage per...

Dammit

Hey, I thought commanders without armies didn't rout when everybody else did?

I had two commanders: a storm general and an ice devil. Ok, so the storm general flees the battlefield when his...

Some thoughts on Ice Devils

Since they were recommended to me in my Jotunheim game, I've become very fond of these little beasties. They're considerably better than Bane Lords, which are the only competitor at the same research...

Re: Astral Serpent - am I missing something?

Does it? Can someone confirm that? It doesn't say so in the item description, nor in the Magic Item Quick Reference. Does anyone see a poison drop when using it on an otherwise poison-free commander?...

Astral Serpent - am I missing something?

As far as I can work out, this misc item does 2 damage - if it hits. Ok so it's armor negating (it'd be pretty useless otherwise!), but it doesn't add strength and it doesn't poison, paralyze,...

Re: Dispelling your own globals

A-hah! Thank you, that explains it. Pythium had had two globals up, which died when he did.

A funny associated bug happened when I recast my GoH: I still got the "your global ench was dispelled"...

Dispelling your own globals

I can accept that if I cast a global when there are already five up, it's random which my new one will be competing with - it may even be one of my own.

But if there are only three up, surely I...

Re: Who said Wither Bones was so great??

Hmmm. Relief requires N3, and LQs are N1 by default (3/8 N2 and 1/16 N3). I guess I could forge a lot of treelord staves and moonvine bracelets.

Also, someone else mentioned Mass Banishment. I...

Re: Who said Wither Bones was so great??

Sadly it's even worse than that, since LQs are cold blooded - they don't like Cold 2 or Cold 3 at all! Ho hum.

Does the increased caster level affect fatigue arithmetically, ie.

+1 = 1/2...

Why not? It's one thing to pick up every typo, but correcting a completely misused word is surely ok. Kids need to learn spelling from somewhere, and it usually isn't school.

Anyway, I was...

Do we even need to do that? Can't they just refer to an EDITOR environment variable, and fire it up for writing Messages? Then you can use whatever you want - Notepad, vi, whatever. Then the only...

Re: Who said Wither Bones was so great??

Hey buddy try not to be *too* offensive. If you read my first post you'll see they are already equipped with "the 2 handed death +1 staff".

I hadn't thought of casting Eagle Eyes first though -...

I think you mean "raze". They knock down temples, they don't build any.

Re: Who said Wither Bones was so great??

Hmm, I'd forgotten about using gems to reduce fatigue cost. How does that work? Will it automatically use one gem to reduce cost if there are any in the caster's inv, or do you have to specify it...

Re: What is Dominions II?

Why is it poor software? Apart from the message interface, which needs improving, the software is easy to use and nice to look at. It also does what it says on the tin. What more do you want?

So I finally get some Lamia Queens equipped with skull staves and research Thaum 6 and send them in against the undead hordes.

Pffffffshhhh. I'd rather have spent the money on priests.

Re: equipment configurations for supercombatants (SCs)

If you've got enough fire gems and a 3F forger, stick a Flambeau on 'em. Eats undead pretty quick.

Re: What to do about Ermor ....

Hey that's another good idea - thanks. As soon as I can spare 250gp I'll get one. I already have a water bracelet or two. Little chance of them getting hero status though, with my priests having >100...

Re: What to do about Ermor ....

Well, first off my pretender is a wyrm with no magic paths at all. I spent my points on dom 10 and good scales (order 3, prod 3, cold 3, magic 1). So the wyrm leads armies and fights - almost 500hp...
