Re: Unknown magic sites in starting provinces?
 

These are magic sites which are revealed later in the game because of an event. Until the event occurs the magic sites are unknown.


It's good to see so many people think about me. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon7.gif

<font size="2" face="sans-serif, arial, verdana">The magic sites aren't revealed, they're created. The site doesn't EXIST until the event occurs, and you cannot search for them and find them, even with Acashic Record. They simply do not exist.

Answer: NO because the don't exist yet

FACTS: THUS AN UNKNOWN MAGIC SITE... as per title of the topic.

<font size="2" face="sans-serif, arial, verdana">Wrong: The answer is actually "Segmentation fault (core dumped)", because you're attempting to operate on a null pointer. The sites do not exist, period: Therefore, they cannot be known or unknown, and attempting to classify them as such will cause a crash.

yes or no... and unless you created some map which has a controlled event occur the answer is NO.

UNKNOWN MAGIC SITE

Re: Unknown magic sites in starting provinces?
 

NTJedi...think about it for a second. Something which does not exist cannot be known nor unknown. A thing which "is not" cannot be unknown, because "unknown" presumes that it exists but hasn't been discovered.

Your argument is ontologically flawed.

Please turn off the caps lock, too - nobody here is yelling at you, and nobody wants to be yelled at.

UNKNOWN MAGIC SITE </font><hr /></blockquote><font size="2" face="sans-serif, arial, verdana">Climbing further out on the limb with each answer, are you NTJedi? You cannot ascribe the property of being known or unknown to a nonexistent object.

(Unless you have invented your own particular branch of logic, where ontological reasoning does not hold, that is)

Re: Unknown magic sites in starting provinces?
 

<font size="2" face="sans-serif, arial, verdana">Unknown does not presume it exists... that is wrong.

example:
there are likely unknown substances or metals which will be eventually be created... and because they don't exist now makes them unknown.
