The Glowing Hill, Really?!
 

Ok I was just playing an EA game as Oni and I found this site, the Glowing Hill, is it just me or is it great? You can get Daoine Sidhe for 35 gold and sacred?! Is this a rare site? And how many more of these can I find? This is amazing! stuff like this keeps me playing!! http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/laugh.gif

I've seen it a few times. Daoine Sidhe are usually cheap enough resource-wise that you probably don't even need a fort on it to get them (though you might want one anyway to protect them). Especially nice if you have a good bless, and if you have stealthy priests that can lead them (or failing that, a prophetized scout or spy with a whip of command or scepter of authority), you have pretty decent, blessable raiders.

Its pretty rare. I have no idea exactly how rare, but I have only seen it twice playing dozens of games.

sadly I just got rolled by all the AI's in the game I was playing...I shall have to try again!! Though I doubt I will find it... http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/image...es/redface.gif some day...

I just looked up the site in the dom3 database. It is only uncommon, not rare, but it is a unique, so at most one per game. Also, it can occur on any normal land province.

There is also one that gives you R'lyeh's Illithids. I got it a few games ago, was a nice surprise http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/happy.gif

There are enough completely awesome sites that searching your territory for all gems types is worth it just for the chance to find even one.

Re: The Glowing Hill, Really?!
 

Ohh an Illithid one too? That one would be really nifty! I would pour a lot of gold into that one :O

Re: The Glowing Hill, Really?!
 

That one's The Crater. It's unique, undersea, and uncommon I think.

There's also a site called Strange House in the Mist where an astral mage can enter to summon Void Beings. In effect, it's a second Void Gate. Rare though, and unique.

There is a land illithid one. Can't recall the name though. I have of course only received it once and then when I was playing Ry'leh.
