Very nice idea, and finally a very good summary of interesting facts. Would be cool to implement these facts as rumours in the tavern...

Not In The Manual:
The distance a hero travels depends on the creature's speed and artifacts at the beginning of the day, not on changes after the day starts.
(Xarfax, do you want stuff that's in the readme file or correcting errors in the manual?)

If you cast clone and there is no space
to put the clone stack, they will not appear
and the original cloned stack will
disappear after the fight

Great idea - about the time this barkeeper says something useful!
Quote: 7. An “A” will get your Behemots 1 step closer, if in Tactics Phase. (Xarfax1 the Kreegan Warrior).
How exactly do you do that one, btw?
And as for me - I've recently found something interesting about the pathfinding. (Not sure if it is a bug in that specific game or something general.)
I had a hero with 7 orcs and 1 gnoll on the swamp at the end of the turn. At the beginning of the new turn he could move a certain number of steps. I've traded orcs to another hero (the other hero did the trading). The movement points remained the same, even though right now he only had 1 gnoll - native to the swamp! I thought it was just a graphics bug and that I'll be able to move further, but he did finish his move on exactly the same spot!
Conclusion? Not exactly sure. Sometimes the native pathfinding bonus doesn't work

Balistas have endless shots.
Marksmen and Grandelves can shoot twice in a round, even if they only have 1 shot left at the start of that round.
Ammocart works in utopias.
Armor of the dead does NOT cast disrupting ray.
To be continued....
Edit: changed weakness to disruptig ray

Faerie Dragons cast with spellpower 5 on advanced level.
Townportal doesn´t work while hero is in a boat, while Dimension Door does.
Level 3-5 spells can be casted without having wisdom as secondary skill.
Artefacts seers are looking for, are unique in that current game.

You can get descriptions of all artifacts (including the components needed to make combo artifacts) by right clicking them in the map editor.
There are four categories for artifacts plus combo artifacts: (from lowest to highest) treasure, minor, major, relic.
Distance traveled by boat is 15 grids and is not affected by creature speed.
Each lighthouse adds +5 grids to boat travel, but doesn't work until the next day after being flagged.

Not In The Manual:
~ Undead are never affected by mind-altering spells, not even if Orb of Vulnerability is present in battle.
~ Efreet Sultan fire shield even works against Black Dragons.
~ Computer opponents only lose a single unit, from its weakest stack, for each use of the whirlpool.
~ Only a single nomad must be present in your army (mixed or alone) to prevent movement penalty dessert terrain. This is not in the manual and unlike the normal requirement for a Hero's entire army to match the terrain to prevent the terrain movement penalty. (i.e. all Tower for snow/all Fortress for swamp/all Stronghold for rough)

Not In The Manual:
~ Magic Plains terrain affects all spells; creature spells too such as each elemental protection(air/earth/water/fire) from the elemental, Black Knights, Mummies, Master Genies, Ogre magi, Faerie Dragons, and Dragon Flies' Weakness. It causes all spells to be cast at expert level from heroes and units except for one: Dragon Fly Dispel will only affect a single target.
~ Familiars' special ability 'magic channel' can be added to increase a Hero's spellpoints above maximum in battle.

Quote: 24. All Gargoyles, Golems and Elemtals are Undead and cant be resurrected or sacrificed. (The Fire Spirit).
Actually, Fire Spirit didn't say those creatures were undead... because they are not! You cannot "animate dead" Golems, for example. They are simply not alive.
Gargoyles and cloned creatures can be affected by morale, although they are not alive.
