Essence of Fire

We'll pitch it at 3 and see how it goes from there.

OK, so what I missed here (until one of the dev team pointed it out to me) is that this spell is close to useless in it's current form. A city will almost never have a volcano near it. Couple that with the fact that if you make your own volcanoes you're reducing the max population of the city in question and you have a problem.

My proposed fix is this: The spell targets a volcano. It "captures" it kindof like you would capture a node. As long as the spell is in effect you get 1 power per turn. If would allow you to make "power farms" in the late game, but think I'm OK with that.

Thoughts?

What about having it a global enchantement giving mana production to all volcanoes within your cities land ?

[ampoliros]

or this spell could die an anonymous death to make room for another more useful spell

[Aaron]

I'm still mulling it over. We may very well have global version of this spell.

Anyways, if no one sticks up for the more localized version is is likely to "die the death", lol.
