well i lightning bolted a high elf who razed me - i didn't kill any troops for some reason even though i lightning bolted 2 hrs after he attacked. 21 succeeded - is this a bug? I know he must have sent enough troops to at least lose some. does the immortality mean i cannot kill his troops?

should it be working like this?


Bolle, February 2010

it's a bug.

though probably a double update... mmm

Scratch that - I realised it was 21 succeeds.

Hmm.
perplexing

Tested on devork. LB does kill immortals, so the bug is likely something else.

double update or churches are actually reducing damage now

Double double update so troops were probably back already.

you sure you used lightning bolt on the right tribe? ive got nine failed in my tribe news and my army was at home.


NORRIS, February 2010

hmm are you the high elf?


Super_Sonic, February 2010

im the balrog, but the times fit in my tribe news that you've said

If it wasn't a tribe who attacked into your alliance then you cannot kill any units. It will come up with;
Quote
Their army is out of your mage'’s reach.
That quote also applies if the tribe who attacked has his military home already.

So, it was the right tribe. The returning army was not home. And you succeeded with 21 casts. But killed 0 units.
That's a bug.


NORRIS, February 2010

did it say you detected failed lightning bolts at all?


Dev Lord Iluros, February 2010

Actually there may be an error where trying to target someone who hasn't attacked wont stop the spells from being cast. It tells you the mage is out of reach, and then the spells succeed and fail as normally, but any successes just kill 0 units.

That's my theory.


NORRIS, February 2010

hahah doesn't matter it is long past now, the other lightning bolts i have casted have worked
