I have the following Populous questions:
o What is the most effective way of killing a knight?
o Has anyone seen the wizard on the flying carpet? What does he do?
o I think I've noticed that my walkers disappear when they walk into a
burnt house ravaged by a knight. Has anyone else noticed this?

Has anyone had success loading an alternate world via the conquest menu? I followed the instructions that came with the disk carefully but I only get a response if I enter GENESIS and then it loads the French Revolution. Is there a certain level I must attain before I can use the other worlds disk? -- Jimmy Liberato ...!amdahl!drivax!liberato

The best way is probably to send a knight of your own with superior stats (a higher bar on the left of the shield). Other alternate ways are: 1) Build up your leader to full stats and send him to meet the knight. 2) If you can, swamp him in his own territory. If you're lucky, a swamp square will appear under him. If not, he will usually be delayed. 3) If water is fatal, dig a hole around him (down to water level). > o Has anyone seen the wizard on the flying carpet? What does he do? He is a druid...all he does is create trees in his path. However, if his path goes through one of your castles, it will be destroyed. There is also a swamp monster that you may want to look out for. he goes diagonally across the world leaving swamp behind. > o I think I've noticed that my walkers disappear when they walk into a > burnt house ravaged by a knight. Has anyone else noticed this? I haven't seen this happen. They are probably just dying there. Remember that you have to raise and lower the land to make it inhabitable by your people. ______________________________________________________________________ _ ASG102 at Penn State * Avast yee hardees...There she blows!!! _ _ Allan Gyorke * -Author of "Parabolas Hyperbolas and _ _ -Better known as EVIL * Toiletbolas" _ ________________________*_____________________________________________
