Default 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!!

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.

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

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.

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

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.
