It says magic battles are resolved in turn 11. Does that mean:
a) That summoned (through distant ritual, not the usual summoning in a lab)  units will fight before you get to reinforce them?
b) That should a squad survive this, they will still move away?

Also interesting: Hunting for blood slaves happens before battles and pillage happens after, so if you want to do one last mean thing to a province, before being crushed- blood hunt is the way.

Yes and Yes.

Also note than since magic battles take place before movement, you can teleport/Cloud trapeze thugs to kill enemies before they can move.

(Or use a killspell like mindhunt to kill the enemy commander before he can move).

Is Niefel dead btw? I see its AI, but Caelum has already shifted its troops to another nation as it seems.

Also as for the manual: It says acid works like fire, but it doesn't state the chance of a unit being set on fire as far as I can tell?

[Karlito]

Being burned by acid doesn't set you on fire.

At this point, Niefelheim is merely a brown stain on the map that I have to finish mopping up.

Indeed not. Perhaps you are always set on fire, but may extinguish yourself before taking any damage? Does this mesh with what more experienced players know about this?

The chance of the fire going out is  25% + (fire resistance x2) + (cold scale x5) +100% if it is raining.  All fire has a minimum 1% chance of being extinguished. If the province has heat scales instead, this is treated as negative cold.

[ThtblovesDF]

I see.

E. Albright will soon message ya'll offering some great opportunities. I wouldn't trust that.

So much war mongering and assassins really asked for it, even if I am known to hardly attack unprovoked.

Don't you hate it when you write PMs for this turn, then it changes like 20 minutes after you send em?

[Karlito]

For the record, here is what the manual says about acid damage.

Acid damage
Acid damage can inflict Rust. It has the same chance as fire. Only units with iron weapons or iron armor can be affected by Rust.
Rust
Rusty armor can be damaged if it takes a hit in combat.
Chance for Rusty armor to be damaged = damage inflicted (before armor protection, but after shield protection) * 2%

Rusty weapons have a 25% chance of being damaged when they inflict a hit on something. Damaged weapons have their damage reduced by 2, except for blunt weapons which have their damage reduced by 1.

My interpretation is "the same chance as fire" means that acid damage has the same odds to inflict rust damage as fire damage has to set something on fire, though as that calculation is not given, it isn't too helpful.

So much war mongering and assassins really asked for it, even if I am known to hardly attack unprovoked.

That made me chuckle. You've been cajoling me to join you in a war against Vanheim, and also encouraging me to attack Caelum, and all through this trying to bully me into ceding my trashy wet provinces to you while carefully not mentioning how you've been trying to squelch my dominion with temples in all the other ocean provinces surrounding me, Theo''s three obviously excepted.

Although I have to give it to you, complaining about my assassins was absolute top kek. This is EA, I have no scout provinces, and my only native stealth commanders are assassins. And you saw neither hide nor hair nor bald red head of them until the turn you invaded, which I will remind you was the turn after you massed three armies and a non-amphibious mercenary company on my border...

[ThtblovesDF]

That is a bit of a stretch, worded to inspire aggression.

But I would like to invite everyone to attack Caelum, they are half-assing this invasion big time.

Overall there seems to be a bit of overreaction, like Caelum saying "You basically already own 4 thrones" [wat], you claiming innocence after all that sillyness and me murdering you just for some war mongering.

PS: It's nearly like I can't build temples in my enemys provinces? Anyway, no temple was build to dom-kill anyone. My dominion is pretty good and I want it everywhere, I'm not going for a early-game-dom-kill (who ever gets dom killed? Last 28 rounds? Like 2 people?)

[a1s]

I can't make it home for the turn deadline, can I please have a 12 hour extension?

[Gigalith]

Caelum saying "You basically already own 4 thrones" [wat]

I never said or claimed this.

What did occur was that you tried to sell me a province for a level 3 throne and access to another level 3 throne. That's awfully forwards, no?

Anyway, if I am indeed attacking with FIFTY PERCENT BUTT CAPACITY, why bother invading me? Wouldn't I be a worse target than someone who is fully distracted? I'm not sure how that logic is supposed to work.

[ThtblovesDF]

It doesn't look like a lvl 3 throne to me?

Indis don't vanish magically.

Your capital is less defended that that indi province ...

[Gigalith]

If we're talking about the throne on 77, it's got a Solar Serpent defending it, which implies it's a genuine level 3 throne, right? Since there's only level 1 and level 3 thrones. Do "neutral" pretenders even guard lesser thrones?

[a1s]

I can't make it home for the turn deadline, can I please have a 12 hour extension?

I guess I couldn't. Let's see how murdered I became.

[E. Albright]

  Sorry, I went to bed at a reasonable hour last night to balance the rest of the week's staying up most/all night.

Karlito also has admin PWs, BTW.

[a1s]

Relatively unmurdered, it seems.
