Save sent to Auro.

Weird... I just got the turn this morning, but it says it was sent on Saturday.

Sorry about that. Turn 107 is on to Kredom.

[Aurorarcher]

Yeah, I sent it on Saturday. Weird, indeed - have you had delay in your inbox before?

Not that I remember. Dunno what happened.

Save sent to Auror.

Save sent to HK.

Houston, we have a problem.

I've summoned Hyborem, as you all know. However, if I say I want to take him over, the game craps out, shows me a seemingly random screenshot of land and then quits to desktop.

As I'm last in turn order, the game ought to roll a Hyborem save if I say no (and it would otherwise generate one). But that isn't happening if I do that.


Anyone have any ideas, beyond paging T-Hawk?

We could try reloading to your last turn and instead or researching infernal pact via commerce, you could bulb a savant or savants to get Hyborem inturn. Maybe this might not generate the error. Alternatively we could try reloading and you finish the tech on a different turn and maybe the spawn location will be more palpatable.

Savants don't bulb up Infernal Pact (I'm virtually certain). I don't have a great sage (otherwise, obviously, I would have used it).

And it's not about the location of Hyborem. It's about getting him to work at all.
