Rules clarification re treaties
Never had cause to care much in the original MOM, but with upwards of ten factions who actually look out for their interests, I hope to get the treaty rules clarified: 1) It appears that you or the AI wizards can attack a node (or unit outside a city) held by a rival, without a declaration of war, a...

"Leave Me Alone" option
If I understand correctly, the Leave Me Alone option is supposed to prevent rivals from settling within 6 tiles of the human player's city. I have been seeing them settle as close as 4 tiles away, with the option chosen. Maybe there are exceptions for war or for the city only being an outpost, and t...

Re: Resist Magic buff
Thanks. I'll have to keep an eye on moments when Confusion spells get through. The arithmetic can be tough to reconstruct in retrospect, but if resistance plus resist magic 5 minus Black Prayer 2 = 12 then Confusion (with its -2 to save) should never work, correct? And it the sum is 11, then it shou...

Resist Magic buff
I am uncertain what I am seeing in regard to the Resist Magic spell/buff. Units show the purple icon, and right clicking on it says it grants plus five crosses. But these are not reflected under "resist" under the unit's stats. Which makes me wonder whether the buff is actually being appli...

Re: Bug or my misunderstanding?
I guess that must be it. I had thought he could beat me, but maybe I am wrong about that.
Thank you, in any case, this is an incredibly good game.

Way of choosing melee attack over ranged?
If a unit has a ranged attack, the game defaults to using it, even when adjacent to an enemy. Is there a way to override this?

Bug or my misunderstanding?
In my Caster of Magic for Windows game, I lost a Great Lizard to an AI, which turned it undead. When I attacked with invisible nighblades, the undead great lizard appeared unable to attack my units. Checking his "card" it appeared it had immunity to illusions, so I would have thought it co...

Re: Military reform
Thanks. I would have guessed the opposite, given the Marian reforms for Roman legions, so you have helped me avoid some aggravation.

Military reform
So I get to the decision where I can reform units, but the text says they will "convert progressively to their improved unit (only if it exists)"
How do you know if it exists?

Re: Master Fletcher, Armorsmith, etc
yes one unit per turn - note if your allies are in the region they can steal the upgrade. the message log tells you which unit (as above set this to average), open the unit's detailed screen and you'll see their defence line as something like 5(+1), the +1 indicates the benefit of the upgrade Troub...

Re: Master Fletcher, Armorsmith, etc
How frequently does one upgrade?
Is there some indication on the expanded unit card?

Master Fletcher, Armorsmith, etc
In-game, these structures say they offer a "custom effect." Grognerd's Guide says: "One random ranged unit located in the region will be issued "Reflex Bows" (or the equivalent for slings and javelins) and have its Attack, Defense and Movement stats buffed by +1 each turn.&q...

Re: Fortifications: Yes or No
I generally build them. In case of war, you cannot count on these to hold the enemy for very long, but it does prevent some small army from just zigzagging through your empire, taking one region per turn. Which, in turn, allows you more chance to concentrate your troops rather than spread them around.

It was stationary, already there prior to that turn.IainMcNeil wrote: ↑Mon Jul 22, 2019 12:01 pm I've put it on the list for investigation. Is it possible your army arrived after the territory was captured or was it stationary and already there before the end of the turn?
(I have saved games if you want to look at them.)

Re: Woa, devs, this cannot possibly be intended!
Out of curiosity, did Alpes spawn any Urban Militia defenders for your ally when the enemy moved in? Or were you completely by yourself in defense? I do not think so. But with a frontage of only 3, I was only noticing my front three units. It is conceivable that there were some allied back line tro...

Re: Woa, devs, this cannot possibly be intended!
I could be wrong, but it seems that it might be that the enemy conquered it from the ally first and then you conquered it from the enemy. Based on my viewing of certain things in my game, I could easily see this happening. I don't think so, because 1) I see all of my ally's battles so I would have ...
