As a Nether mage, casting at SL 598, reduced base geld income from 1,506,195 to 1,172,925 (22%).  There was with a level 15 [[merchant]] but no other geld income modifiers.  Reduced unit mana upkeep from 16,005 to 15,302 (4.4%).  Conclusion: terrible offcolor, except at the very end of Geddon.

{{blue}}: Effective at 589SL on roughly 2.5k acres and more (assuming 44.99% nodes). This is the break even point, where the spell's mana production will outweigh the mana upkeep. At 3k acres you will see roughly 300mp/turn increase and 20k geld/turn decrease. Effectiveness increases with land size. Currently being tested/investigated by [[User:Paralytic|Paralytic]] (Dec/09).

By releasing the stored magical potential of your geld, you are able to directly use your wealth to pay a portion of the mana upkeep cost of your army.

Magic Specialty: Icon PHANTASM.gif
Rank: Complex
Type: Enchantment SelfOnly
Cast Turn: 10
Cast M.P.: 50,000
Research Cost: 4,000
Upkeep: 100 m.p. (and hidden geld upkeep)
Related Unit: None

Effects

  • Decreases base geld income. (also known as hidden upkeep)
  • Decreases unit mana upkeep.
  • More effective on-color (probably). (edit) On-Color at 410 it reduced mana upkeep to 82.4% of normal and geld base income to 90.5%. Good if you have nodes above 30%. Efficiency seems to decrease as SL increases, although there might be another hidden factor causing this.

Examples

At 3k acres you will see roughly 300mp/turn increase and 20k geld/turn decrease. Effectiveness increases with land size. Currently being tested/investigated by Paralytic (Dec/09).
