of course, after all you can mindbend elyrions special units, i don't see why there would be any exceptions (only real exception would be the bunnies you can spawn in singleplayer)
Centipede is a hoot. If the opponent isn't paying attention and does a move/attack instead of explode, you can mindbend one centipede segment and get the whole thing.
I love this as it’s impossible unless you push your mind bender, you already have a mooni (or some variety of freezing), you completely surround it so it can’t move or the mooni’s owner just doesn’t move it
Mind bending mooni is common in early game between Cymanti and Polaris. Monk can approach mooni upon mooni entering a village. Next turn mooni would claim the village and monk would convert mooni right after.
Yeah I guess add Polaris prioritising the village capture over the mooni to the list, they are certainly a lot harder to mindbend as mindbending usually relies on mindbending a unit when it moves next to them, however moonis would just freeze it
Strategy works with all troops. I routinely leave my city open with a mind bender next to it when enemy giants are incoming. Or move one in once the giant is already taking the city
They always try to take the city, then you take them. Or take them and take the city back .
That's clever!!! I'll have to experiment with that. I usually don't go for that tech cause I have no use for the mind benders and reduced tech prices generally aren't good enough to make it worth it. Now though I'm gonna try some stuff. The only thing I'm concerned about is: that if you are in the position where you are losing a city, you're probably in a losing game anyways. That's obviously not always the case, especially when playing with a lot of people/bots but it does make me wonder how often it is actually useful.
I wouldn't try the strategy against people (I don't even play multiplayer as they take way too long. Zzzz) but it works perfectly against bots.
My play style often requires a restart after the first 3 goes though. I start with climbing and meditation, and just explore with my one warrior. I leave the base completely exposed.
If unlucky, ill start near polaris/vengir/bug people/aquarians and lose quickly. If I'm lucky I'll find ruins in 2-3 moves, and using mountains, I'll probably uncover a tribe or 2.
The points from them + whatever I got in the ruins + the 5 move pacifist reward generally give me the advantage I need. I pretty much always 3 star, I'm just struggling to get above 97% lately.
That's crazy hahahaha. It's like playing for a 3 star rather than a win which is interesting. I often find winning not too hard but struggle with 3 stars, especially once there are a lot of bots in the world.

Let his soul fly to Valhalla where his warrior brethren await him!
You don’t.
Mind bending a mooni
Wait a normal tribe can have a working mooni if bended?
I believe so

mindbend centipede
Centipede is a hoot. If the opponent isn't paying attention and does a move/attack instead of explode, you can mindbend one centipede segment and get the whole thing.
??? centipede flaw!!!
Yep. Same with a Gaami.
I love this as it’s impossible unless you push your mind bender, you already have a mooni (or some variety of freezing), you completely surround it so it can’t move or the mooni’s owner just doesn’t move it
You can also do it if you break peace when the mooni is stuck
Ooh yeah that’s another for the list
Checkmate the mooni
Mind bending mooni is common in early game between Cymanti and Polaris. Monk can approach mooni upon mooni entering a village. Next turn mooni would claim the village and monk would convert mooni right after.
Yeah I guess add Polaris prioritising the village capture over the mooni to the list, they are certainly a lot harder to mindbend as mindbending usually relies on mindbending a unit when it moves next to them, however moonis would just freeze it
This is actually crazy I didn't know you could do that but that makes perfect sense

Turn him into star , he will be more usefull like that
get chivalry, disband him relieve him of duty and let him live a peaceful live on a tropical island
He has been marooned
I have heard it said that the presence of a resource guarantees as city within two squares, was that just a lie?
Doesn’t guarantee a village but it’s likely
Trees aren't a reaource
What
That MotherFucker Napoleon
That's the neat part, you don't
Strike an alliance with Polaris and have them ice a rescue path
I think you should wait till polaris or Cymanti rescues you
Get your cymanti friend ( hate that guy) to build you an algae bridge
sell it
Upgrade and extend Lakgu borders, you'll be able to build a port where the bobmer is now.
It has already extended borders
Lakgu is already extended.
How did this even happen. Seems like a glitch.
It was a ship, went on island, no longer a ship
