3 silly questions

If you bear The Chalice in the Early Era can you be attacked by questing Knights?

If one of your commander is sent to inferno and comes back, it gets experience for that?

Why Caspar is so clumsy that he always wake up some sleeping troglodytes?

Never, ever seen the Questing Knights. It's possible it's a very low-probability event; or maybe it requires some scale combination I rarely use.

If memory serves, a search of the strings table in the executable suggests that there is at least the -idea- of giving a bonus to fire magic (Inferno) or water (Cocytus), just like coming back from the dead might improve Death magic. Can't recall an explicit mention of experience 'tho. Just because the text is there doesn't mean it's necessarily enabled... if you want to test this, try a map file where somebody has the Infernal Sword and a really bad 'tude.

And the last, heh. Double-edged event, just like the witches.

I have yet to see it...

on knights in EA though, I found the seer's nexus magic site in an EA game and got the ability to suit out large armies of ethereal knights, stronger than any other knights...

I know its okay, because the nexus is mysterious and otherworldy, but holy crap.... best magic sight ever. (also all the nexus guys are immune to aging, apparently)

The the seer themselves are cool too.
Maybe there's a poptype of war trolls and troll knights?

The description says holding the chalice can have those questing knights attack its wielder... yet no one on the forums has ever seen it happen within DOM_2 or DOM_3.
(not sure about DOM_1)

If it does exist the odds must be one in 100,000.

word was it happened more often in high order scales.

Twiceborn can increase death by 1.
Getting lost in the void can increase astral by 1.

that remainds me that I los 1 commander wielding the boots of the plains. "lost in time and space"
And i cannot reforge the boots either. When he thinks that will give me my boots? I sure need them.
