Forgive me for answering as a layman but...I don't know where the mana listings went, but you can keep track of mana by going to the screen for any of your connected cities, and looking at their resources. Mana should be at the bottom of the left-most column.

Meh, I started over. Guess I'll invest in Spirit mana and more adepts this time. Luckily, it looks like there's a mana node right next to my capital... I still think making Courage a normal promotion and giving the Horsemen more nihilistic AI would be good, though. And come to think of it...

Damn, that's cold. I ask a serious question about something that's really standing in the way of my enjoyment of this classic mod, and no one gives me an answer. Okay. If you're gonna make the Fear promotion so powerful, then PLEASE do one of the following: Change Fear to make it dependent...

Is Fear supposed to be 100% effective in preventing living units from attacking? It seems like it is, which I have a problem with.

I really hope this isn't the case, since the old version is gone now! EDIT: Yep, pink circles. ARGH!

The dumbassness of humanity never ceases to impress me.

Here, I'll do my part. This is my favorite mod. (Though if the Alpha Centauri mod goes all the way this time, there could be some serious competition there.) You will probably be flattered to hear that I can only vaguely remember the last vanilla/warlords game I played, since I've been...
