ATLANTISv2 atl-players-digest #139 From: csd@microplex.com (Christian Daudt) Date: Sat, 23 Sep 1995 00:00:00 +0000 Errors to csd@microplex.com Now there should be a digest whenever (a) there are 10 emails or (b) whenever there is an email waiting for more than 48 hours for a digest to be completed. So don't get worried if the digest has only 1 or 2 emails, that just means the list has been slow. (I hope it works) If you want previous versions, they are available via WWW at http://www.microplex.com/~csd/atlantisv2/ ---------------------------------------------------------- From: Dave "Mack" McGaw <u3djm@csc.liv.ac.uk> Subject: Re: Mage Transfer Date: Wed, 20 Sep 1995 17:18:50 +0100 (BST) Thanx for the Notes, Thor. BUT! I already know this set of info. I wasn't saying I had a problem with it, butthey just wouldn't transfer. I am moving mages around WITHIN my own faction! Point 1 dead! I have a PURE MAGIC faction (5 mages)! Point 2 dealt with. I was transfering one mage into a NEW unit, not combining them! Point 3 done! What I was trying to do was number my units consecutively. I formed 5 new units and put a single mage into each. I also forgot to put the failsafe orders in so I wasted a turn. Back to Arrrggrhghghghg-ing I think! Comments people!??? Regards Dave PS Thanx Thor for your observations, but I know this stuff. >>Arrrrghhghgh! >> >>How come you can't transfer Mages? > > I can think of several reasons: > > 1) The faction you are transferring the mage to is not allowed to have > mages.

We teach mages in all skill areas, most to level 2 or higher. (Current levels: construct 2, body 2, nature 2, energy 2, all others level 1). We sell a variety of magic items for reasonable prices. We accept payment in silver, magic items, elven workers, and spells. (Sorry, we DON'T sell spells). WE WILL HAVE ENERGY 3 AND NATURE 3 IN ONE WEEK. Training in the magical arts costs a mere $25 silver per mage, or transferring ONE elven worker will entitle you to THREE months of training. Payment in spells and magic items is negotiable. To be trained: 1) Declare faction 822 friendly. 2) Transfer 25 silver/mage (or high elves) to unit 5520. 3) Send email to bobhayes@oz.net saying what unit # is studying what foundation. 4) Study the appropriate foundation skill. ALSO AVAILABLE: MAGIC ITEMS Gloves of Strength, Enchanted Wagons, Potions of Healing, Picks of Mining... Best offer for any/all of these. We can produce as many as 5/month for factions on the warpath or preparing for a major move. ---------------------------------------------------------- Date: Fri, 22 Sep 1995 10:19:13 +1000 (EST) From: Robert Henley <rhenley@st.nepean.uws.edu.au> Subject: teaching needed i have several unit in atlantis requiring teaching 1 leader with seeking teaching in entertainment 4 high elves seeking teaching in weaponsmith 1 4 high elves seeking teaching in armorer 1 a have 1 leader in mozan needing teaching in entertainment 1 Rhion high priest of Church of Darkness(faction 905) ---------------------------------------------------------- Date: Thu, 21 Sep 1995 23:57:58 -0700 From: jeffh@ee.pdx.edu (Jeff Heinen) Subject: Over Active Majordomo Filter Greetings All, This message got weeded out of the list because Majordomo thought it was a message that should not get sent to the whole list.
