Bug/omission: Sorah and Ecks (and possibly other Austrin leaders, but they're the only ones I've met so far) don't have any music assigned in their diplo screen. I met them in my current game and was looking forward to hearing the 12 Kingdoms intro music... and it wasn't there. :(

I love the dotmapping utility built into the BUG mod (and thank you for including it!), but there's one thing that's been bugging me (so to speak) about the way it's currently implemented in Wild Mana. In the regular BUG mod, you can remove a dot from the dotmap screen with a right-click. But...

I already reported this in another thread, but I'm reposting it in the bug thread for future reference. The event that should be triggering when the Malakim find the Mirror of Heaven doesn't seem to be happening. One easy way to reproduce the bug is to grab the RifE version of the FFH Earth...

Here's a save to reproduce the bug, then. The map is an Earth map, though I forget which one. It might be the FFH Earth Large map from this thread, but I'm not sure. At any rate, the Malakim start in Egypt, with the Mirror of Heaven just 5-6 tiles west of their starting position. The save is...

Looking in the Civilopedia, I see there's an event that can create the Resplendent Minaret "when the Malakim find the Mirror of Heaven". What's the exact definition of "find" here? Because in my current Malakim game, I started near the Mirror of Heaven, but I haven't been able to trigger this...

I just got the "unit torturing enemy prisoners" event on a dead unit. No save, I'm afraid, since I was just messing around with exploring dungeons way too early and had no intention of actually keeping the results, whether they were good or bad. But here was the sequence of events: Playing...

So my experience wasn't a bug; all right. Next question, since I couldn't find this information with a forum search: do Pyre Zombies do their collateral damage when they explode, or only when they attack? And how many targets does it hit? (Though the latter I could probably find in the XML).

I know the kings of insane culture have to go somewhere... but why Japan? Isn't that a little preju-- http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Wz-mJed_bP0 ... Never mind, objection retracted. :crazyeye: :lol:

I don't know whether this is a bug or whether it's working as intended, but it seems like a bug to me. Pyre Zombies don't explode when killed with a ranged attack. I have a Steam Tank sitting outside a Shaeim city with two Pyre Zombies in it, which I've already damaged with ranged bombardment...

I've been playing as the Mechanos lately, and I'm beginning to wonder if the Mechanos Affinity trait is working as intended. The Mechanos replacement for the Catapult is the Organ Gun, which has a ranged attack of 4@70%. It also starts with Corned Powder and Mechanos Affinity. Corned Powder...

I just saw this happen in my current game. As Mechanos, I destroyed the Balseraphs down to one city, then accepted peace in exchange for lots of techs. Meanwhile, the Sidar, Balseraphs' neighbors, were WHEEOHRNing -- and soon after I made peace with the clowns, the Sidar moved in to finish them...

Does this break saves? My guess is that it won't, but I'd like to know for sure before downloading and installing it -- otherwise I'd rather finish my current game before I upgrade.

Funny coincidence the other day. A friend of mine emailed me saying "I know The Twelve Kingdoms is one of your favorite anime. I'm trying to persuade my wife to watch it with me; can you write me a review of Twelve Kingdoms so I can show her it's not just me who likes it?" So I wrote about the...

Disappointing, but at least I found out before spending any money. Thanks for letting me know; I'll get her the Windows version and help her set up Boot Camp.

I have a friend who has Civ 4 on her Mac, and greatly enjoys it, but never knew about the existence of mods for the game. I'm thinking of buying her Beyond the Sword as a birthday present so she can try FfH, but the Mac version of BtS is quite a bit more expensive than the PC version. So before...
