[quote who="krisslanza" reply="339" id="2885239"]Quick little question here to spare a useless thread creation. I forget the name of the Kingdom at the moment (and my game is updating) but I recall one of the bonuses being you could design male and female soldiers - does this mean other kingdoms cannot design both genders and are restricted to, I'd assume, just male soldiers? [/quote] Correct - only Tarth can train both.

[1.19a] Return Spell Bug When Cast Inside City in WOM Support Elemental Forums

Sov is stationed in city food2. Cast return from inside of city - doesn't work. Zaps my mana 20, appears to nuke the sov and garrison unit, but then they walk right back into the city. Repeats from exit and reload of save. Something is not right with the mechanics. If I walk outside city and then cast it works fine. Thanks. http://dl.dropbox.com/u/19969679/Elemental/119a%20PlaybyPlay%20S

[quote who="davidjc_af" reply="1" id="2884396"]I predict absolutely nothing will be fixed. I predict the OOM CTD will still occur with a great vengeance. I mean they fixed the portraints with the ast patch right? As Borat would say NOT! I was so disheartened by the fact the portraits are still doing the same thing if not even worse. So I don't expect much, I expect fancy patch notes and the same problems as before. [/quote] Let's be real: they've fixed a ton of stuff.

Doh! Been a bit busy the past couple of days so haven't had a chance to play more turns. Planning on taking Friday off so I think I can get some more updates out this weekend. I'm looking forward to seeing what's going on with the west side of the map and conquer Umber. With all the available land to settle on the east side of the continent I think I'll be set up to roll the west side quite easily. Time will tell!
