Tribute in nomads bazzar?

[lujo]

Been grinding a campaign for a while now, and I haven't seen any enemies offer tribute at all.

I have 12/2 vs. the Paladin, for example, and most of the ones I fought (certainly 6) were siegeing towns. Do those count for tribute or not?

How about disapearance? Does "enemies don't spawn" mean that the wizard won't use them in sieges or not?

Can henchmen ever dissapear?

Since the dungeon enemies don't count for tribute or dissapearance, would it be possible to make them not bump the win-loss display counter?

With the Nomad Bazaar release you don't get any option but to duel. You can't pay the AI off or get a tribute one you reach that level.
This is what I found.

Hmmm, that's not true I had all the options just fine except the one to get tribute (yet).

I do believe this has something to do with difficulty, tough. I think I had that bug at the lowest difficulty, while at the second-to-last difficulty I never did.

In the Nomad's Bazaar release, Korath was deviously a genius. The intent of the release, as I see it, is to have as many cards as possible to sell at a major city (Forges, Bazaars, etc.). This is so you have massive amounts of gold to use at a, you guessed it, Nomad's Bazaar! You cannot pay the creatures off, Korath took that option away for the Nomad's Bazaar release. Avoiding them by running away is the only option.

I modified shandalar.ini to make it look more readable for me. I get massive eye strain reading a big wall o' text. Creatures can pay tribute to you, but not vice versa in Nomad's Bazaar. It remains to be seen whether Korath will reactivate that option in the next Shandalar release, but I hope he does.

Not sure if you're trolling, but regardless of that

You can pay monsters off, just not, I think, at the apprentice difficulty. At the 3rd tier difficulty you can.

[Vernon]

I am not trolling. I only know that it can't be done (by Korath's design?) on Apprentice (tested) and Magician (untested) levels in the Nomad's Bazaar release.

[lujo]

Why would it be by design? What notes are you talking about?

Here and here. The subject's rather more difficult than usual to search for, since the game doesn't give it a specific term or such.
