Default "A dire portent" (???)

"A dire portent.

Norven, lord of Pangaea, the Hiddon One, the Stealer of Corpses, Queen of the Harvest, has proclaimed that the oak growing in his sacred grove is the Mother Oak, the oak that stands at the heart of the world.

The possession of this oak is surely a sign that Norven is the rightful ruler of this world, thus the oak must burn."


Just got to turn 41....and this shows up in the Messages....has anyone else had any message like this?

Yup.

One of your opponents cast the Global Spell, Mother Oak.

You can Dispel it.

Every global comes with a message.

I love these Messages. Well, I don't love the fact that my opponent has cast a global enchantment. But I love the carefully reasoned "The possession of this oak is surely a sign that Norven is the rightful ruler of this world, thus the oak must burn." parts.

but some Messages from global enchantments are either without description or ending in the middle of a sentence . i love the descriptions but would wish that there is one for every global enchantment
or do i have perhaps a rare bug on my system and with everybody else it works well ?

No bug. Many global spells simply have no description. This majorly sucks since
1. It wouldnt take much time to code some in the game
2. in totally destroys the atmosphere at least for me.

very stupid from the devs imho.
