The search page works, though it is not as sophisticated as the old forum search. This archive encompasses approximately 25 years of CF discussion. Today, that discussion continues on Discord (see the main website for a link).

Some of the special-purpose forums are listed below along with their replacements (as of writing):

Other orcs can't use my fetishes.

#15272, "By design:"

It's pretty clear to me from looking at the code that this is intentional.

I think you could make a case that it shouldn't work that way, but that's not the domain of the bug board.

#15282, "Just going by the helpfile"

This is completely misleading, if it was coded this way intentionally:


Syntax: fetish <corpse> <body part>

A mundunugu can use his primitive dark magic to draw out the mystical properties
of body parts severed from fallen prey. The result of this process is some
manner of fetish or effigy that can be worn or held. Those not of orcish descent
will find these items useless, but orcs will find themselves accutely attuned to
the dark and mystical energies within.



Orcs, in plural form, as in "more than just the mundunugu who made the fetish." At least that's what I have always thought from this helpfile.



I can't post on the gameplay board under this alias, btw.
