Sorry if it was mentioned somewhere before,  
but it seems Silence doesn’t drain mana any more: if you silence a troop with a full/part mana, it will still have it after silence wears off.  
Is it intended? Was the Silence mechanic changed?

Yup… it was mentioned before. Read the patch notes here: [Patch 1.0.9 Arrives! – Gems of War](http://gemsofwar.com/patch-1-0-9-arrives/)
