Temples
Temples are holy places where a unit may journey to receive a blessing by a spiritual leader.
Blessing Information
A unit may only receive each type of bless effect once. The effect from the blessing by the spiritual leader is permanent.
Icons are added to the individual unit icon in the stack menu to indicate which bless effect(s) a unit has received.
Temple Types
There are 3 types of temples in the game:
Temple Type | Bless Effect | Bless Icon |
Strength | +5 Strength | |
Movement | +2 Movement[1] | |
Undead Lore | +1 Undead Lore[2] | |
[1] The Movement blessing immediately adds +2 to the unit's current remaining movement for the turn and the unit's maximum movement.[2] The Undead Lore blessing adds the Undead Lore skill to any unit, not just those that already have the Undead Lore skill.
Blessing Units
To bless units just move them onto a temple. A menu is automatically displayed showing which unit(s) just received the blessing and which unit(s) did not because they have already received that particular blessing.If enemy units are guarding a temple the blessing will not automatically happen after combat is complete. To manually bless the surviving units click the multi purpose button in the upper left menu (it will have a Ziggurat icon on it). The blessing will then occur and the bless menu will be displayed.
Note: Units must explicitly stop on a temple to receive a blessing. If a unit's movement path takes it over a temple the unit will not be blessed as it moves over the temple.
