Unknown lines

I'm fairly certain the following lines can appear in many different contexts:

Gaining Secondary skills (I recall seeing this with Scholar and Pandoras):

  • %s learns something.

Change in mana: (occurs f.e. with Pandora's box)

  • %s loses magical energy.
  • %s gains magical energy.

Change in morale: (also in Pandora, might be somewhere else too)

  • %s's spirits drop.
  • %s's spirits rise.

Change in Luck (Pandora, maybe something else):

  • %s's luck takes a turn for the worse.
  • %s's luck increases.

Change in gold (perhaps this is a default timed event message, or Event / pandora text)

  • %s has lost treasure.
  • %s has found treasure.

Learning a spell (Scholar / Pandora with a single spell?)

  • %s learns a spell.

Gaining creatures (Events / Pandora)

  • A %s joins %s's army.
  • %s join %s's army.

I recall seeing this message when playing around with the mapmaker; perhaps it is applicable for shipyard cut-off by terrain / obstacles?

  • "This an abandoned shipyard. Unfortunately the Ways are blocked, and it is not possible to build ships here.


A few lines here are missing what actually appears in the game (such as "new units to recruit in %s"). I suspect they may be in generaltxt.txt, or in HotA.dat - Csaros (talk)
