Am I missing something? can some of the braggers on here be that good?

Then, can it be eh...surgically fireballed? Just a little?

Yes you can do that and actually you could possible use this to extend a battle for resurrecting fallen troops. This may work especially well with the split - Time back 'feature' of Griffons.

When you have units just out of control (101% ~ 149% of our max unit cap) you may finish tha battle w/o problems - I have so accumulated zounds of ghosts (after the battle I just moved the overcap units to my backup slot - gosts for free ) - the nuber counter is blue.

You can't end combat when your units go FRENZY ( they are real enemies - their count color is red, and they only attack you - as good behaving enemies) - now you can't finish the battle whan this happens - you need to fireball tham or anything - but hurry - as you can imagine that if you have i.e. 200% of your max red bats (and your leadership is 30K ) killing them in one turn is nearly impossible (killing the one half that is above your normal)

Freeze them, fear them, slow them, trap them, this opens a truckload new fun options i see
Can't wait to get those friggin' resurrect/sacrifice spells
But i accomplished my first great...accomplishment: i bought me a brand new wife!! (Rina). She wants to have babies now, How can i do that? I fear a simple cond** won't be enough as 'protection' this time...

Rina's babies are week - ignore her... Any artefact would be better (basically there are weak boots in the game - but still I don't know how the game decides in which slot will be newborn baby placed)

I think the baby is placed into random free slot. So, leave one free slot (which you like) and start reproduction process.

For me Units went frenzy the moment they are over the cap. Maybe it depends on game difficulty aswell.

You get a baby by talking to the wife, tell her you want a baby, then fight 10 battles in order for it to be born. And no, the baby is not placed in a random free slot, the baby is placed in slot 11, that is, the one on the upper right. If you have something equipped there, it will be moved to inventory. I've never gotten to baby #2 but it's placed either in slot 9 (upper left), or slot 12 (bottom right). Since the babies are weak in vanilla game, I suggest you either don't have any, or try my TNG mod (found in mods section, obviously). For the latter I suggest waiting until I release the next version, the current one is still somewhat imbalanced.

Are you saying that it is better to get 4 good artifacts than 4 good babies? (well, getting both involves having tons of luck i guess)

[Keneth]

There's no such thing as 4 good babies, you might get 1 if you're lucky, whereas you get a boatload of good items along the way.
