teleport spell?

November 2, 2010 7:20:23 PM from Elemental ForumsElemental Forums

Hi

I was just wondering why i have 2 teleport spells? I started with custom faction and leader.

Also I'm just trying to figure out what circumstances cause the teleport spell that doesn't teleport anything? A number of times i have teleported and the spell executed, used all the mana but the units did not move (how rude using the mana but not moving my units!).

I wouldn't mind if the teleport spell simply failed to execute and no manna is wasted, but no, it goes and consumes all that manna for nothing! As a result of that, every time i want to teleport, i have to run and save the game just incase the teleport spell fails to work and waists all my manna.

The first one is supposed to only teleport the caster, the second the group. Since the first doesn't work properly, they do both the same thing. Second, it's a bug. I suppose you tried to teleported with a caster that wasn't your leader?

THATS what's wrong with teleport? You HAVE to have the Sov do it? I wasted an entire stacks mana trying to get them across the map.

the spell only works for the left-most leader in teh stack, if you cast it from another leader it'll subtract but you won't teleport.

Thanks for the replys... It makes sense.

 

But then the problem is that it creates a disincentive to ever using your Leaders magic in combat, preferring to use up the manna of other units first?

But at least any units with enough manna for teleport, should not really be with the leader, they should have their own separate group.

It is possible to rearrage units by taking the one you want to be the leader out and having the others move into the tile that person is in (or maybe it was the other way around and the joining unit(s) will be first... been a while).
