It's the same person though

... who is that, anyway?

And yeah, I can note that bionic dues is pretty nice. Runs out of replayability pretty quickly -- which is kinda' hilarious for a roguelike -- but quite decent. We've got a thread for it running around here, somewhere.

Yeah, I'm not actually sure if I'd want to go rainbow with an abysian pretender. Not quite sure what I'd be looking for (I mean, a decent high earth would be nice for making my ridiculously tough troopers moreso later on -- armies of foo -- as would decent N for GoH.), but it would probably 3/4 in 1-3 (Not fire/blood, probably not astral -- Abysia's got native S3 via one out of ten cap'd warlocks) paths... maybe less, depending on booster access for said path. At the very least, instead of going 2 across the board, I'd be tailoring it to boosters -- water could be left at 1 (gets to 3 without much difficulty, and can go even higher if you burn some artifacts on it) pretty easily, ferex, but other stuff might be able to stand being higher. Not so much looking for a site-searcher (though that would help, early on), but rather a ritualist -- someone to summon more diverse battle casters/summoners. Or a forger, too... elemental staves would probably be pretty nice on your anointed if you could wrangle 'em. Expensive, but being able to easily turn your anoints into E4 or E5 (boots, earth power)...

Problem being that if you did run for staves, you'd be having either a fire or earth overlap with your nationals. Not exactly the worst thing (at least for earth -- fire would be kinda' wasteful), but eh.

Rangers are supposed to get extra feats -- their "combat style" stuff listed in the manual -- if they're wearing light or no armor. Mithril armor is supposed to bring armor down a category (heavy to medium, medium to light, light to no) for the purposes of... well, basically everything, iirc, though I could definitely be misremembering that bit and you'd want to check the description of the mithril quality to be sure. As such, a ranger wearing medium mithril armor should still qualify for its extra feats, but presumably does not -- I can't remember/figure out an easy way to generate mithril armor to check whether it's actually happening or what the description of the mithril quality is, ha.

Ooh, sounds fun. Kick a jellyfish for me.

You forgot "loss of inhibitions". I have a lot of those stupid things.

I noted loss of conscience and control already, ha.

If you don't like beer/other alcohol because of the taste, I recommend you try cider. At least once. C'mon. For me?

Cider tastes just fine without alcohol in it. No need to ruin delicious hot spicy apple juice with ethanol

Vengeful Water broke 5k gold damage this turn.* It's incredibly minor and somewhat spiteful, but I find myself oddly cheered by being able to do that much damage with so few provinces, casters, and income. I kinda' like this spell, though in retrospect it was a fairly terrible mistake -- I really should have cast maelstrom instead, ha. Wasn't expecting to last long enough to profit from it, really.

P.S. Please continue burning resources on the weakest and least capable faction, Mict. I'm sure with Arga and the deadbros rampaging around you can afford the cost
P.P.S. That was a joke. Please go kill them instead of me ;_;

*Yes, I've got a spreadsheet and I'm keeping a tally. 72 commanders and 10 bodyguards, so far. Totally going to release it once everything's said and done. Only thing approaching note I've managed, ha.
