MEh, that is not funny.

And I messed some things up, heh.

I hope that at least Oceania likes my Golems

Not suffering from Horror attacks, are we?

As a general note: the Astral Corruption is there to slow down Mictlan's SC production.

To be honest that global pretty much helps me

I would easily dispel it otherwise.

It does not bother summoners really as they can protect themselves or kill horrors. Forging also does not trigger horrors as that are cheap items.

But that is really bad that 5 people staled. That makes practically you and me left playing.

Well, make sure you only forge with cheap mages then, although I imagine the Forge discount is a pretty big shield there. I should have thought of that. Still, enjoy your Horror Marks.

There are no horror marks from Astral Corruption.

Abomination of Desolation looks uber cool though

Gregstrom · #6 May 27th, 2008, 07:02 AM

Useless damn spell. I was sure it at least marked casters. Unless that was in Dom2 days...

Care to post a screenie of the Abomination?

Zeldor · #7 May 27th, 2008, 07:17 AM

No, there is no marking. Check your forgers and casters, maybe I missed something. From what I know there is a cahnce that forger/caster will simply be attacked by horror. More expensive things and chance is bigger. Also more scary things come. That Abomination came from Wish, though previous turn, when you put Corruption up, there was just a normal Horror against my Wish caster. Oh, and I can afford a lot of mages

Screenie: [fear is +15, around him are false horrors]

I think it was that guy on that feathered throne.

Actually order was carried out by immortal guy with somewhat german name...

Okay, wait, now I am confused. Apparently my pure Abysians with darkvision 50 were indeed taking a penalty--it's just that they don't display it the same way as the humanbred with darkvision 0. When I click a humanbred's Attack Skill value, I see:

Basic Attack Skill: 10
Darkness: -5
Current Attack Skill: 5

But when I click an Abysian Infantry's Attack Skill value, I see:

Basic Attack Skill: 10
Current Attack Skill: 7

So there's a penalty of 3 points that's applied but not listed, and that's what had been throwing me off. I guess this is still a bug in the listing, but that's not nearly as important as a bug in the calculation would be.
