Manual mentions that Boots of the Planes can cause this.

Nice to see Johan active on the boards.

Playing Ryallah I have often gotten lost in Time and Space.
It usually doens't take that long to come back.

The Tomb of Infernal Power boosts your chances of coming back from the Inferno - I surmise there might be other items that boost your chances of coming back, as I always seem to come back in 8-12 turns.

I wonder if you spread dominion frm there...

Hmm that would be interesting - check your hit points .. that would tell you of the dominion status of inferno.

R'lyeh is pronounced "rull-yeh," not Ryallah.

I thought that was from a Dreams of R'lyeh battle.

One of the nasty things about non-R'lyeh units becoming lost in time and space is that when the return, they land in a random province. Any random province, including water. So if your god is wandering around up there, when he comes back he might splash down in the middle of the ocean, and if he can't breathe underwater, well ... at least you can call him back now.

Also in addition to the insanity, you've got a chance of +1S. Does anyone know if you can get this if you have no astral? It would kind of make you a little vulnerable to Magic Duels.

20 insanity is not so bad, you still get to tell him what to do 80% of the time.

Okay, how's this?

My units have never died when lost in time and space (I think).



But I'm less certain now, since you say yours came back with new afflictions.

Oh, wait: My units nearly always are scripted for returning (the lost in time and space ones). And as I remember, they either land in an enemy province with 2 pearls left and cast returning, or land in a province of mine and don't use the pearls.

Now ... was this before or after I started giving my void gate guys 4 pearls instead of 2? I've got no idea.

But if they were in combat while lost, they should show up in my capitol with no pearls, instead of in an enemy province. Unless Returning doesn't work in the lost in time and space combats.

Now THAT is a very good point. I am completely confused now, because even Johan seems to think battles occur in these places. It's a grand mystery.
