I've got a problem:
I thought I'd try Kuriotates, 'cos I rarely spam the Land with cities, but build only some, but try to get the best positions for them.
That worked verygood with Kuriotates. And the other big bonus: You can place a settlement in the worst area, just to get the resources.
What made me stop enjoing them is the fact that I can't upgrade my mages to archmages.
I have "Strenght of will" and "Catacomb libratus", so all my cities and even the little settlements (!) have a mage guild, but even if I place the mage IN my capital, I don't get the upgrade-button. I even have a lvl9 mage - not even he can do it.
Is it because all my mages were once merged with great commanders? That didn't inhibit the upgrade from adept to mage.
Can Kuriotates not have Archmages? (That'd be the horror) What am I missing here? Or have I found a Bug?
Another Question: What were the needs again to found "Cult of the Dragon"?
And something more: Someone in my game has built that ritual, that kills all farms and creates deserts. From that turn on, the delay between the turns ist about 10 times as long as before. Is that normal? Can I do something against it?
