Fall From Heaven II Erebus pbem

"Let's go explore those ruins right next to my capital", I said, "what are the odds of something bad happening?" I said.
 
I am leaving the ruins nearby unexplored as I know that nasty things can came out of those! :scared:

What about graveyards? I have a good record with those as usually they just give money. Are graveyards somehow safer or have I just been lucky? And should we explore them or leave them for... something else?
 
Love your timing Nighthawk, I had the ball for less than an hour. :goodjob:

I'm pretty sure you were just lucky. Also you can do stuff other than just rob them later on with the right magic on your side.

LOL my scout has become sick and can't move until he's better... thats an interesting random event!

At least your scout wasn't possessed. :cry:

Graveyards, IIRC, have 1/4 chance of each of skeletons, spectres, gold, or random tech.

It's a completely different list from dungeons/lairs.

Ruins/Barrows/Forts all will, however, spawn barbarians to attack you unless you explore them or garrison a unit on top.
 
These are all very esoteric cases, so I've probably forgotten some:

You can sacrifice angels at The Pyre of Sepheric, getting Fire Elementals.
On graveyards; you can cast Death I and get 3 skeletons rather than 1. You can cast Life I and get a Host of the Einherjar (recorded incorrectly in the civopedia). You can cast Body II and get a free Champion.

Suffice to say, I don't think that has ever occurred in a competitive MP game.
 
You can also cast Life III to get a dead hero unit back.


But obviously a free tech is better than any of the above. Plus if you delay too long a barbarian unit might pillage the grave. Just be sure you can handle potentially a few skeletons if you get a bad result.
 
Soooo for what I have seen so far in my tiny area has sat me on the edge of my seat. From out running a giant spider only to bump into a lion's Den guarded by 3 lions, I was able to kill 2 of them with the same scout! But the third is chasing my very wounded scout, so far it has caught me but he is a long way from home.

My point is that I'm not bored, this is very exciting.
 
I know, I have found interesting stuff - a held imp on the mirrors of sands or something like that, before some AI. Also I currently have the worst GA I have ever had. An awesome event, but literally working 2 squares to give bonuses on :p
 
It's starting to be interesting but I am anxious for a more developed game!

I am used to scenarios and not starting from scratch...
 
I met two AIs on the same turn.

Sorry, Luthor. I argued repeatedly for why you all should have played with quick speed, but I was shouted down. I tried to get a player order out of you all so that turns would move more quickly, but nobody would cooperate. I had no idea that anyone wanted a pre-built start, because I was never informed. I tried!


I hope you can enjoy the game regardless. I also invite you to try joining a game at RB, if you want something just as interesting, but at a much faster pace.
 
Oh, not to worry. I am sure I will enjoy the game!

I was in favour of having quick speed but I think most people were against it... that's democracy for you! :rolleyes:

But I will surely enjoy. It's just that I am anxious to get to the more juicy stuff. And the pace of the game (the speed that people play the turns) is pretty good! So we will get there fast.

Wait? Skeletons approaching my capital???? :scared: Why is this game developing so fast???? :p
