Kick'n it with the legion

[Andvare]

Only crypts that can be worked by a city are defile-able. Meant to be a last resort type thing because it permanently lowers the tile yield.

Okay.
It's odd, though, that I can defile crypts that are build inside my borders, but inside an opponent's BFC, while at the same time, the area that can be defiled is only the original 2-ring BFC, not 3-ring.

(I really should have checked the special buildings of the Legion before I began play, as I didn't know they could used the 3rd ring )

Edit: I also found a use for the extra settlers, just use them as junk cities, and defile the hell* out of their BFC.

*Sorry, bad pun.

I'm assuming you're playing as the Legion. If that's the case you should start with 3 slaves in addition to your settler. Once you found your city take those slaves and look for a add to city button. Hit that. Pop should go up. If it doesn't there is something wrong, and you should post a save file for the team to look at.

how are you building disciple units? i am playing as d'tesh, i can't research religion techs, choose state religion or build temples in cities that religions spread? tx

 

[Swinkscalibur]

they have unique disciple units. They will eventually become polearm units. The Tier 1 unit is the watcher.

 

[Valkrionn]

Their disciple units are also on the melee line; You start with one, instead of a warrior.

 

[nizanthor]

the watchers (workers) and warriors are disciple units?

 

[Valkrionn]

Watchers are not Workers, as that UU was removed (as were all unique workers other than Mud Golem and Lizard Worker; PromotionBuilds are used to differentiate civ-specific workers now).

Warriors are not disciple units and can be built normally as well. In fact, as D'tesh you want to, if just to sacrifice it to your arcane units.

Disciple units are the Watcher, Sentinel, Death's Head, and Hand of D'tesh. They will become Polearm units in 1.5, but they were needed now and disciple fits as well.
