I once had Brigit die 8 times fending off Mercurian SoDs. The experience she earned was well worth it though, she was a one-angel world-killer once I finally demolished the Mercs!

Somebody needs to make an "Ice Breaker" upgrade for ships!

If you dont have a trade route, road or river you dont get the resources. I had a coastal city on an island that went over 100 turns before it connected to my resources which were only a few tiles straight shot across the ocean.

Global warming? Why would they include a fictional effect like that in a realistic game like this?

I think I figured it out. If your city has one of your other cities listed in the "trade" box on the city screen you get access to your stuff. If it has other cities and none of yours, then you don't.

I wonder if that's realated to my previously reported bug with Brigit not completing her turn due to multiple defensive strikes killing opponents before they die from the normal attack when using a harlequin to taunt a large stack of enemies?

Seconded! <tenchar>

Unless it was sitting on a mithril directly- when I took it it was completely surrounded by the enemies culture- then no. And I honestly didn't look, but I really don't think so. It was still in revolution also. I just remember getting the mithril promotions and thinking it was cool because I...

I really enjoy this promotion on powerful units like brigit. I made 190 gold from her one turn when the AI just kept sending warrior after warrior after warrior. It can come in useful on the stooges also- they tend to have stacks thrown at them often.

I forgot to mention- It was also my first city on a new continent. I hunted down the esus holy city so I could see their stacks before I started sending my regular troops.

Yes, it does work in .40z. I had brigit and sphener take a city in the middle of enemy territory- completely surrounded by enemy culture and the units I captured with Spheners command ability got mithril weapons when I moved them into the city.

They always have in the past-- though thats no guarantee they are supposed to.

I've noticed this, also. Maybe some smart programmer type can write up a "save game cleaner" to strip out some of the history stuff or whatever is causing the problem and maybe speed things up!

Or in other words, the AI will not try to grow population in a city with unhappy people :)

I always wondered if I would get better results as a player from cramming as many cities as I could into my territory. Maybe that system is more efficient in the long run, but I just prefer to spread them out.

I also like the turn numbers in the event log.

I almost always raze rhe veil holy city also. But Nox is way too useful- makes all your units invisible- to ever raze. In fact my last game against the balseraph- after being annoyed by his invisible stacks I sent my army wandering through his territory randomly ignoring every other city...

Wait... So command 4 isn't a 70% chance of succeeding? It's a 10% then if that fails, 20%, if that fails 20% and if that fails 20%? That would make sense since I only see it work ~40-50% of the time. But I figured it was all in my head the way I will almost always lose 70-80% odds battles...

I posted about this issue before, but it's a couple pages back... Using a Harlequin to convince enemies to throw themselves onto Brigits sword occasionally causes the game to freeze up. I didn't notice any dead units not being removed. What seems to happen (from the on-screen messages) is...

I think they can if you have them on another non-hn unit in a stack with them.
