The squares change 24 hours before the tournament start so there is only 24 hours notice where to send the armies.

Armies on the squares will stay there, but occupation and combats will only be counted from the start of the tournament.

Well I agree with your research bonus thing. If we look at totem figures on Herald Page(here), we can see that centre figure is a vial, containing a green liquid.

Makes sense if we see it that way that only that city will get research speed up bonus which is located in the region where research totem is selected by winning alliance.

Anyway if we look at figure to the left of centre, we see a armoured warrior carrying two swords in the likeness of Men. 

Leftmost figure is heavily armoured carrying axe and definitely has beard. A dwarf !

Figure to the right is aggressive, certainly not-good-looking and wearing crude light armour and carrying rugged, cruel spears. Typical of Orcs Smile

Rightmost is fair looking...thing. With arrows and light armour but well crafted. And those sharp, keen eyes. ''Legolas what do your elf eyes see?'' LOL

Also consider second sentence from Herald Page.

...very minds and bodies of every denizen living in the affected region.

''every denizen in regions'' Well every denizen includes Elves, Dwarves, Orcs and Men.

I guess that it has something to do with races. Most likely attack/defense bonuses. Not sure though. Bonus can be anything but it has something to do with different races.



Okay..I just realized my mistake. Orc and Elf figures are to the left of centre and Men and Dwarf figures are to the right. I have absolutely no idea how to edit posts so....

Sooo - any hint as to what these "New choices in totemic enchantment are"

My speculations:

+ Mana Production
+ Research Point Production
+ Rune Effectiveness

Less likely speculations:

+ Blight Effectiveness
+ Geomancer Effectiveness 

Most unlikely speculations:

+ Diplo Visibility
+ Diplo bonuses (offense or defense)
+ Military bonuses (offense or defense)
+ Any type of production (other than basic res, mana, research) or crafting bonus.
+ Scribe of Allembine movement speed

All this food will have a big impact on many market prices.

Just a thought!
