gor unit list incomplete

fantasma · #1 May 15th, 2008, 12:02 PM

I enslaved some troops and wanted to cast gift of reason on the enslaved mages. Last turn this worked out fine. But this turn I get an incomplete list of the units present in the province.

Did I miss something?
Is this a known issue?

I think it's already in the bug list. Have a look in there.

By the way, be careful. You will always GoR the first unit of a type, no matter
which one you actually chose. Thus you cannot GoR the affliction-free Cyclops
that comes, in the list, after the feebleminded one, unless you take them to
separate provinces. Nor can you GoR two in one turn.

Are you sure? I seem to recollect that I chose which tartarian to GoR when testing the shattered soul mechanic. OTOH, might have been that I did not pay attention.

i never had such an effect you described Tuidjy. I always check the tartarian in the spell selection (right click) and get exactly that tartarian. And i never had problems with 2-3 GoR in the same province.

I have never had this problem.

I have had the problem where the unit you want to GoR did not come up for selection. Its easily solved by moving some units into another province. Seems to only be a problem when you have alot of units in 1 province.

I had the same problem, luckily the affliction free tartarian titan was first on the list.

And it wasn't due to a large amount of units in the province, I had a few tartarians and maybe 10 longdeads.

I am positive that I have had this problem at least three times in the game I
just finished. I tried twice to GoR two lightning cyclops in one turn, and got
only one commander. The gems were spent, but the second cyclops stayed a troop.
Another time, I tried to GoR a healthy lightning cyclops, and GoR'd the
feebleminded one instead.

Afterwards I just stopped trying to Gor more than one per turn... and once I got
my summoning to six-seven tartarians per turn, I stopped bothing to GoR, either.

By the way, that province was shock full of all kinds of troops... only the
Tartarians must have been more than 50.

------

I just tested it. First recruited three units of the same type, and tried to
GoR them, but the list displayed only one. Then I recruited a mix of units,
and once I had three of a type appear in the list, I cast three GoRs with
three different mages.

The result? No, not three commanders. Not one either. Two. *shrug*

I have succesfully GoR'd three to four units in same province. The only time I had problems was when I tried to GoR two similar units. At least I can GoR a titan and a cyclops but not two identical titans (afflictions don't count as non-identical) because I think that both spells targeted the first and the same titan. Otherwise, no problems, never.

Or is there some sort of failing probability and i just get loved (hmm?) by Lady Luck?
