Hi. Does anyone else find it utterly retarded that the only way to learn some (if not most spells) of the spells in this game is through experimentation (through 256 combinations of ruins no less!) or just reading them off somebody else's list? Whereas, all the CPUs seem to know every spell beforehand. WTF?

Actually, i liked this. How could a poor druid learn a spell back than, no scholls or anything?
Honestly, i didn't mind this. I remember that once i was desperate in battle, i was still new to the game, so i cast something randomly and got a spell. Can't remember exactly which one it is, it was some sort of firing spell, but i can imagine how wonderful it felt.
As for previous post (i guess it is from the same guest) i didn't know that Balor captures champion in attacked province. Stil, it sounds cool. I guess than Balor Can't attack province where the king is, right?
Other points are right. when you have many champions you can simple move on leaving empty provinces. I did, but only when got so strong to create a line of provinces, so noone can pass to the other part of the island. Also, you can attack province with few champions and make them retreat, then gather food and material and go back at your province. I guess that something like this happened lot of times in the human past.
At the end, game seems difficult at the start, but mostly to get through things. After finishing it once, you'll find it too easy. Still, concept is original. Too bad that no improved and more balanced sequel is unlikely to appear ever.
