[38a]guardtask
« on: February 05, 2008, 02:16:00 pm »

while in a temple in adventure mode, I had met a guard, after a long talk about his relatives, I decided to ask him about [service].
with his first reply he said, that he was flattered, but had no need (like always). but then proceeded to give me a task from some empire, to seek someone out. and then gave me a piece of info about a guy who stopped ruling in some year.

edit: apparently the empire was the one I'm in, and the guy (who stopped ruling) was a former ruler of this very same empire. while the guy I need to seek out is in the capital, specifically the fortress, and is an elite bowman.

edit x 2: nevermind. it's not a bug (it's a feature!  :) ). apparently it just tells me who to ask for quests, the mayor didn't have any, and that is why I was sent to the capital.

I tried to play chess but two of my opponents were playing competitive checkers as a third person walked in with Game of Thrones in hand confused cause they thought this was the book club.

That's a new feature. If the person you are talking to does not have a task for you, he/she tells you where to find somebody that does.

I have to say that finding specific people is a pain. Maybe a conversation tool for asking for people current whereabouts (specific buildings) should be in order.

Usually they tell you the building where the person works.  It will be a temple, a mead hall or a keep.  If the person isn't there, then they are eating or sleeping.
