Incite reverly

[hahahacker]

Does it do anything?

Eventually a hama dryad will come out and she's pretty powerful, but immobile. Besides stopping animal spawns at the ancient forest, it's not very useful.

[Lord Vyse]

It can be useful after a while. When you get enough of them spawned they slow down enemy armies and take villages.

[8Squirrels]

Haha, this is true although in my games they never achieved enough numbers to accomplish much. That said, the AI went straight for my ancient forests a couple times, so that wasted a huge amount of turns for them :)

It's also handy vs Witch and Druid because the number of revelers that wander through their forests, reducing their income.

It is not that useful if you are ahead and steamroll everything. Spending 25 gold to stop the animal spawns is nice tho.

But if you are really behind, in a game, where you barely hold on, revelry becomes really really useful. AI rarely bothers with ancient trees and that means, any ancient trees with revelry wil retake their villages all the time, giving you extra income and forcing their huge stacks back to retake what was theirs.

My longest and toughest game to date was with senator. Here is one cool screenshot from that game - > I took some trees behind enemy lines to wreck some havoc. I took the trees everywhere. And I had very well defended capitol. I ended up winning that game..

Had the same thing happen to me. Kept me alive until I could turn it around.

ah thanks just took a bit longer the i thouhgt it would

It takes a year or so for a hamadryad to appear, but satyrs and maenads should start appearing within 2-3 turns.

[Aquillion]

It's not hugely powerful, but it's also really, really inexpensive, and helps prevent the forest from just being recaptured by wandering monsters.

One thing I hadn't really considered is the freespawns would be a great way to pester and harass druid and witch players (and to a lesser extent barbarians). I often find that those players have godlike mana income by late game, but if you could put the kybosh on that early or mid game, it could make a difference.

So I had dwarf right next store so it always pester them on top theybjust grab random stuff for you and they can handle small Independence Plus no animals!

I think Druid has their own version of revelry so you could end up with a hilarious situation where your freespawns fight theirs for control of a forest.
