I was just looking at that code while playing chapter 3. It makes me tempted to start suiciding most of the units!! Surely that isn't the intended incentive?

If you ever have a situation where dismissing units is maybe "cheating" then there is a design flaw!

It's open source. Kind of hard to design around players sneaking a peak at what's to come and acting on it.

I think there's a bug in Lethalia's advancement tree - when I advance based on # of enemies killed and choose "Fireball", the skill is not added to my skill list. However, when I then advance via XP, Fireball shows up on my skills to choose list. Then when I choose it, it is added to my skill list.

Is this intentional? I.e. to gain new skills, do she need to advance and then choose that skill by both measures? I'm using 1.16.6.

When you "advance" by kills (soul eater score), you don't get advancements. You unlock them. Once they are unlocked, you can earn them at your next advancement (AMLA).

So it's working correctly.

Lore questions:
1) why Vritira quoted like that in the title of the last chapter? (in the wml comments, Dugi said that it is a secret but I think -after playing this campaign over and over- we deserve to know) 😀
2) is there an umc campaign about the Argazar and their war? Or, at least, are they mentioned elsewhere?

The story of Argazars (and most of the stuff in the library in Part I) was taken from "Invasion from the Unknown", I think that was even mentioned in a code comment in that scenario. I don't know any campaigns about them

Heh, in a sense. In IftU they were mentioned in story glyphs just like in LotI they are in The Library books, no appearing on screen in both cases

They deserve their own campaign if you ask me.
By the way, is there a try to make a time-line for LotI events?

That would be nice, although one needs cool arts for that, they probably should look distinctively

Which kind of timeline? Events of chapters 1-5 may be attributed to a particular timeframe, especially chapter 3 which takes place in the lifetime of Delfador. Chapters 6-10 take place in some very distant future

I mean approximate year of beginning of each chapter.
By the way, I didn't know that chapter 3 took place in the time Delfador. Is that mentioned somewhere?

In the first scenario of chapter 3
Spoiler:
So chapter 3 has a relatively narrow range of years to attribute. May use it as a base point to try to get approximate years for other chapters of part I, considering how many years is said to pass after the previous one in the first scenario of a chapter.

About chapter 2 I can say that

I'm not sure whether the timeline entirely makes sense, but
