The links to the images are broken (they probably disallow hotlinking, you can just upload the pictures directly here via manage attachments in advanced mode).

That said, trapper is supposed to only work when the stack dies to increase the challenge of maxing it out.

1. Nonworking LUA functions: None of these LUA functions appear to do anything: Game.MessageBox(...), Game.InvokeMsgBox(...), Game.Log(...) and Game.atom_getpar(...). Could they be fixed?

Here is the response from developers with a bit of humor:

These functions DO work (at least some of them).
Game.MessageBox ( text [,caption] ) shows the text with caption above.
Game.InvokeMsgBox(name, text) shows text IN CASE one uses "warning" as the name parameter. Other variants for name parameter are possible but unknown to this one. Enkindle this.
Game.Log ( par1 [,par2, par3 ...] ) this one considers this particular function to be broken or requiring some extra parameters.
Game.atom_getpar() this one has never seen any traces of this particular function

Probably known bug: 3 achievements doesnt work. Its Mad Courage, Proffesor and Ragnarok's Messenger. Read somewhere that it's steam's fault, but not. Actually, achievements just cant pop in game, because game ends right after final battle. Fix it, please. Want my 100%

Patron / Friend of the Pirate are also still bugged in most cases. Global steam stats show 0.1% so some people got them, but I haven't despite completing those quests in just about every patch.

But there used to be tons more that were bugged, so we're getting there.

Regarding Ancient pheonix bug, I may be referring to a different bug but when you get the option to resurrect your pheonix and you choose not to, the pheonix stands up at least it's image, it is still dead and units can walk on the tile where it died. It is a graphical bug, it doesn't affect the game in any other way.
I've seen highterant lay an egg in a inaccessible tile (the void in gremlin battle).

Another bug I don't think has been reported is when evil beholders mind control one of your units it stays mind controlled for 2 turns instead of just 1. In my experience it should allowed to dictate one action of the target, not control it for 2 turns.

After 4th update, i have problem with sacrifice spell. Sometimes it makes critical hit on my unit, So, instead of sacrificing 5 paladins/knights it kills 10. Anyone with same problem?

What about *Valkyrie ability used* medal. I used them all, multiple times and there is still zero in the counter. I thought I saw this in the bugs section before, but now is gone, (not in fixed section either)

It works fine. They mean the "dialogue" ability used, not the "rage/valkyrie" ability used.

I've feared these guys on multiple occasions and they still attacked higher level units.

Spell: Pain Mirror - Damage done is a fraction of what it should be
Spell: Magic Missle - Does not do 150% damage to Soothsayers
Rage: Christa's Gift - Enemy units show being under the effect of Greed's Curse, but walk right by gold pile as if it's not there (previously reported)
Item: Game of Bones - Activating the game does not work (previously reported)

Latest patch through Steam

I have played the game twice. The first play through I had no problems with Christa's Gift, the second play through, I have not as of yet, had a problem with Pain Mirror, but Christa's Gift does not work.
