wouldn't it be the temple of temoprance? it is just a wonder in vanilla with only a few words changed.

 

[Ur_Vile_Wedge]

Ooops, I was really thinking of the civilizations palace


But since you were foolish enough to grant me the power of questions BUWHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH! I shall ask.........



Which of the game's wonders use latin words?

 

[xienwolf]

No, Temple of Temporance is quite a bit more different from Notre Dame than these two are I think. But it could be close.

 

[Wyrmhero]

Do you mean the text when you research the technology, or the actual name?

The Infernal Grimoire I believe has latin text when Infernal Pact is researched, and Grimoire I think is latin. The Eulogy of the Sheaim & Hallowing of the Elohim if they are counted as wonders, and the Way of the Wicked has latin text. Am I close?

 

[it-ogo]

Which of the game's wonders use latin words?

Correct question: which do not?

Aquae Sucellus, Caminus Aureus, Catacomb Libralus, (Celestial Compass), Dies Diei, Nox Noctis, Nexus?

Hippus palace?

Also don't forget that AFAIK 1/3 of English words are originally from latin.
Infernal Grimoire? Etc...

 

[Wyrmhero]

All bow to the infinatly more researched answers of it-ogo. And I wanted a go...

 

[Ur_Vile_Wedge]

sorry Wyrmhero, It-Ogo got it. (and btw, I meant only in the name of the wonder itself. sorry if that wasn't clear.)

 

[it-ogo]

Then a simple question:

Which two wonders always come together (with a small delay)?

 

[Tyrs]

the mercurian gate and the mercurian palace?

 

[it-ogo]

Right. Looks like it was too simple.

 

[Tyrs]

heh, I almost didn't guess it, didn't know if palaces counted. Clever though. I don't have a question, but Wyrmhero really wanted to go...so I'll give my turn to him.

 

[Wyrmhero]

Thanks. Okay, mine is for all you who like roleplaying.

What should you never research/build/create if you are correctly RPing the Amurites?
I want 4 things.

Also, for a tie-breaker, how many meteors can you fire in one turn at the maximum amount?

 

[Chip56]

Also, for a tie-breaker, how many meteors can you fire in one turn at the maximum amount?

Hehe.
In theory unlimited.
As long as you capture archmages with inquistors or domination.

 

[Wyrmhero]

Can you capture national units if you already have 3?

 

[Kael]

Hehe.
In theory unlimited.
As long as you capture archmages with inquistors or domination.

Or your willing to sac archmages to clear up slots (archmage casts meteor swarm, scrap archmage, promote mage to archmage, cast meteor sworm, scrap archamage, promote mage, etc).

 

[Wyrmhero]

When you don't have any spare Mages ready to be upgraded and you can't capture any. Happy?

EDIT: Although, I've got to try that...

 

[Mewtarthio]

(3 Archmages + 1 Govannon + 1 Hemah + 3 Druids (trained in Blaze by Govannon as a Ranger)) * 3 (meteors per spell) * 2 (from Spellstaff) - (3*3*2) (Druids don't get Spellstaves)

30 meteors

(Assuming no capturing whatsoever. I'm not sure what would happen if you managed to capture Govannon as the Calabim to train your Vampires.)

 

[MagisterCultuum]

I noticed people are only trying the tie-breaker, not the main question. (I'm not a fan of the real question either)

@ Mewtarthio: you forgot about Liches, and the Hemah and Govannon can get Twincast.

oh, and theoretically you could have a beastmaster capture Acheron, Euabatres, and Abashi, who can each create 1 meteor with Breath Fire instead of meteor swarm

 

[it-ogo]

And you can not capture even Acheron? Is it limited with Amurites? In case of Grigory there are no druids and Govannon but all of their archmages and liches may have twincast.

 

[Ekolite]

{Grigori do get druids dont they? Neutral alignment = druids?}
