Taming Acheron the red dragon

[Calavente]

Acheron has the Magic Immune promotion, so it makes sense Command wouldn't work. As for the Sons of Asena, would the Loyalty promotion block Command? I can't recall.

"New random seed on reload"

yes that one...

are you sure "command" is supposed to be counted as magical effect ? it's not the Mind3 spell. (I don't see why it shouldn't work like the subdue beast/animal promotion, but with %chances) But you might be right, I don't really know the c++ that is hidden behind the xml.

Loyalty is supposed to block being overtaken by command (and domination, and even subdue animal/beast). I forgot that those guys might have that promotion.

I recently returned to old savegame and make some more attempt using your suggestion. I did not use "New random seed on reload" so I messed a bit order of action and Acheron was tamed at last. It was only a strange low probability problem. I will try next to figure if some Dispel Magics may get Sons to work for me, overcoming their supposed Loyalty...
