Since there are 4 species of tentacles, do we need to reinforce our towns with all four races? I have about a quarter of a million troops in my town, a vault, thieves, 8 squares occupied but NO ORC. Can anyone help by sending me at least one? NAP no problem.

I do not believe race makes a difference - just troops as far as I have read

Indeed, nobody has completed it, but some have got part way. This much is known :- With the last message, a tentacle appeared growing adjacent to the city square. For several full moons afterwards, the tentacles tried to expand to adjacent squares, spreading out in whichever direction they could until all 8 city-adjacent squares were full. They avoided lakes, volcanos, etc. and did not grow where an army was camped. Extract from:- This would suggest that ANY army is sufficient to block the spread. As for the next steps.... that is unknown

Has anyone got this message recently (June or July 2017):
I had one city prepared months ago, long before the HoC woke again - crafting completed, fortune teller visited, tentacles collected and stored, messenger sent to Duraz. Then someone mentioned that they thought the later steps needed to be done while the HoC was beating, so when it started beating again in June I repeated those steps in a different city. Now, I have multiple cities at the same point, waiting for something to happen. I understand that the tentacles are suppose to escape on the next New Moon after HoC stops beating (estimated July 23, 2017), but shouldnt there be a message before that, with the excerpt mentioned above about "the fools continue to feed it"? Does this suggest that we should be sending units to the now inactive HoC to feed it more before the New Moon arrives? The line "Once it is sated, the next phase will begin" seems to suggest that message should have come already, shortly before the HoC stopped beating, though the line "You have only a few scant hours of preparation time left." would suggest more that this message only arrives a few hours before the subsequent one (that talks about the tentacles being stolen/escaping under the New Moon). Also, I didnt note the exact day when the HoC stopped beating - did anyone happen to catch that? It appeared to have started on a Full Moon, and ended during the last New Moon, but thats just when i noticed it wasnt beating, might have been before then. So, yeah, did someone get this message yet? Edit/Add-on:
The message may appear different now, or may have been removed all-together, but still just want to double-check with everyone, incase i've missed something Edited by Djehuti - 02 Jul 2017 at 08:40 |

I am in a similar situation - regarding towns with a messenger sent to DK prior to heart beating and one sent during the recent beating cycle - and yes, it did stop on 26th after 18 days of beating
From the "the horror has stirred; and the fools continue to feed it... " message, I would take that to mean that the old crones visit with that message happens while the heart is beating, and the fools feeding it is the units sent to gain tentacles. The devs adjustment to the text and day it's sent may change this - it may happen in the near future ?? So nope - I didn't get that message yet either. Nor are any of my towns misted yet (maybe on next new moon ?) There is a town - https://elgea.illyriad.co.uk/#/World/Map/-215/357 - that is misted and had corrupted squares part way around, but was like this prior to the latest heartbeat cycle.

Ah, yes, that's what I had meant to type - gotta stop trying to communicate thoughts before I have coffee edited my previous post to reflect that, good catch, thanks |
