Smouldering Cone

In my Utgard AAR, I cannot recruit hydra hatchlings in Pythium (ex-Serpent Cult). But I have been able to do so in a R'leyh game (same cult).

Just something weird to share. I started a game with Jotunheim the other day and I had the Smouldercone in my home territory. I could hire lava warriors and the mages that the Abysians have. I thought this was kind of wacky considering my guys were all cold based.

lol, that's the big bug w/ 2.08. Utgard is effed up.

though, personally, I like the combo...

Well it is cool, I'm hiring the abysians for research.Even better, the smouldercone doesn't generate heat, at least I don't think so. So all this will do is give me cool fire/blood mages. Which is great cause I set the game up to be Vanheim vs Jotunheim. Which means I win cause I have fire.

Don't get too accustomed to playing Utgard with the Smouldering Cone. This bug'll be patched out -- eventually ...

Heheh, I dunno about that. YOu might lose because you depend on fire mages casting spells in cold provinces. Doesn't that greatly increase fatigue cost?
