There is something wrong with this picture, what is it?
(Maybe there is an explanation I don't understand. But if I'm right, who can spot the flaw? Put your answer in white font. Image is not photo-shopped.)

The only flaw I can spot is that you cast a spell and you're still at full mana.

Otherwise, I see nothing wrong.

It is not that. He could use scroll and it does not eat mana.

Since the initiative of the robbers is the is the same as your priest, the robbers should have went before the priest.

robbers and priests have initiative 4, speed 2.
priest is level 2, robber is level 1.
priest goes first.

from manual
----
Первыми ходят существа с более высокой Инициативой. При равенстве Инициатив - с более высокой Скоростью. При равенстве Скоростей - с более высоким уровнем. При равенстве уровней - с меньшим значением базового Здоровья. В случае если все эти параметры одинаковы - сначала ходят существа врага, затем - существа героя.

In screenshot you can't see artifacts and regalia, that might affect unit's initiative. You can't say who should go first.

Movement of a unit is not recorded in the log.

You'll also notice the down arrow is clickable meaning that's not the whole log.

I don't think that flaming arrow attack is not flawed (I am too lazy to calculate intelect required to do 170 damage). Player can do level 1 flaming arrow attack without wasting mana.

I dont know what turn it is, but according to unit placement it should be early in game (1st, maybe 2nd)
because of that, i noticed missing debuffs on enemy units - thorn hunters should have flame DoT from arrow and bears should have 'ZZzzz' debuff because of w8

p.s. i might be wrong, i admit that my last game ended 3weeks ago :)

flaming arrows don't have 100% chance of fire. It is only 20-60% + int.

Spellbook icon will be grayed out after a scroll is used.

The priest has two positive effects and should have only one.

he attacked with flaming arrow spell, but instead of casting spell he used flaming arrow scroll. This can explain why mana is not used. Maybe both ways can be called spell casting, but I could not find other way to say it.

battle log does not show difference between casted spells and used scrolls.

positive effects
holly anger gives blessing and holly anger effects. I think blessing is the only reason why it was used. holly anger is useless, because enemy does not have undead or demon stacks.


Nothing wrong with that picture or original poster thinks that something is wrong and doesn't want to reveal it.

Exactly. I'm beginning to think we're jumping through somebody's hoops here :)

Makes me wonder why he's taken the screenshot with only the top of the log visible.....
Otherwise there is nothing wrong with the picture as far as i can see! :confused:
So how about it then Whydidthathappen... What's your question here???

The priests have two buffs on them, but only Holy Anger is marked in the log

Holy anger gives blessing (max damage with base attack for 2 turns) and holy anger (150% damage on undead and demons) effects and 3 to 10 rage. Read spoilers.

I haven't played so many battles, and I haven't been paying much attention on the surroundings at all, but:
Why is there a light beam near the priests, like the ones that show up there's a treasure chest to be dug on the play map?
