Huh?
« on: November 23, 2012, 12:30:25 pm »

While testing out a modded race, I found something odd. When I went to nearby civilizations (everyone was at conflict with me, as planned), I noticed an extra neighbour at the bottom: Tower. Sadly, I couldn't keep the world as there were flaws with the race that needed to be fixed. Does this mean I would have been at war with a necromancer? Why do I never see towers listed there usually?

The tower is close enough to send sieges, so zombies and an occasional necromancer is to be expected.

Towns (and once I saw a mountainhome like this) will also send sieges if possessed by an independent necromancer.

Most likely, you never see towers there because you haven't embarked close enough to necromancer towers before.

If you don't see Tower listed, then you're too far from them. IIRC they'll only be noticed up to around 10 or 20 tiles away on world map. And yes, Necromancer is at war with anyone that's too close. Well, except for other Towers, apparently.

More than one tower at a time is guaranteed Fun.
