Playing a game as Luchuirp, I was pleasantly surprised to come across the dark elves on turn eight. I saw it as an opportunity to capture a worker, which is quite an early game boost, especially while playing as Luchuirp; their mud golems take so long to build at first.
So I invaded Faeryl straight away and got my very own elf slave. I thought: "goodie, not only do I get a worker very early, but now I can build tree cottages." That was stinkin' thinkin' cause apparently those dark elves aint into trees like their fair-skinned cousins. My slave doesn't seem to have the elf trait and can't build in forests or even run through them quickly.
Flavor wise, I can understand having dark elves not working in trees. I'm just surprised I haven't noticed this before. Either I haven't been paying attention or something is messed up with my game. Can anyone enlighten me?
