not only do i have the 0 mana after a fight bug, but also if i recruit a champion with a special ability... if i cast imbue on the champ, the special ability dissappears.
at this point im waiting for 1.09 to see if some of the major bugs are fixed, but im guessing ill be playing civ 5 by then. this looks like it can be turned into a great game, wish it had been polished a lot more befor erelease though.
