Is there a list of what is actually being said while casting? It sounds like Druid is saying kumbaya.

You know, I thought about making a slightly tongue-in-cheek guide for this, but I realized that I would need input from everybody else because there are lots of times when a troop clearly says _something,_ not just grunting, but heck if I can figure out what’s being said!

I know. My wife and I both play and we have fun trying to figure it out. I think we both have different sayings for what is said. Gloom leaf says something that ends in power. Gorgotha is completely unintelligible. I was just wondering if the developers had it written so we can stop laughing at each other and what sayings we are making up.

I listened to the sound files in the game folder. Here’s a list of spells I can make sense of:

Atlanta - no one shall escape my arrow  
Bombardier - boom!  
Brian - cheers  
Bultaurus - huzzah!  
Dark Maiden - come closer  
Dark Master - there is no escape  
Dryad - let mother earth replenish your life  
Fenrir - haa! fresh meat  
Ferit - I will cut you down  
Finley - you name it, i’ve got it  
Ghirali - hey, check it out  
Green seer - from the life of the earth  
Hag - hush now  
Keeper of souls - rise from the dead my mionins  
Keghammer - your head goes on my axe! hahahaha  
Luther - lead on  
Musketeer - take aim  
Orion - I will cut you down  
Peasant - get out of here while you still can  
Poison master - you will die  
Priestess - a knight of good will shield us from harm  
Ranger - no hiding from me  
Raven - your death will be swift  
Revenant - darkness  
Rowanne - hmhmhm, take that!  
Lady Sapphira - return from the darkness  
Scarlett - they will feel my fury  
Sparkbringer - oh! is that how to do it  
Stargazer - devine strength watch over us  
Tau - you are not going to like this  
Templar - a holy shield to protect us  
Thrall - no, master, no!  
Tyri - I’ll be taking this  
Warlock - I call upon the shadow flame  
Wight - death

Then there’s some that sound like speech, but I can’t understand them. maybe they aren’t supposed to be real words.  
This is how they sound to me:

Autumnal Imp: ihanostal  
Dark Song: kesdarka  
Druid: koonpalak  
Gloom Leaf: simalan paw  
Lamia: geskvatium  
Sunweaver: kongs here name kart yet  
Sylvasi: diadoboboka  
Treant: myondee

Here’s the thing though. There are a few of those that I interpret differently. Mostly Green Seer “from the **light** of the earth” and Priestess “ **the light** of good will protect us from harm.” Perhaps others will hear slightly different things. And I can’t remember which one, I think it might be Lamia, whose text sounds like something very naughty but is unintelligible enough that I’m pretty sure I’m mishearing it…

Don’t they usually say something else too? Like when you get their card or select them for a team (since 1.0.8 they don’t do this anymore, maybe they still do in arena?).

Good job though! I’m not on a computer, so I can’t access those files. That’s another reason that I didn’t make a guide, it would have been a pain to play with each troop just to activate their spell and listen carefully…

I listened to each of those files multiple times, trying to pick up on the exact sound. Of course, I still may have made some mistakes, and any feedback on what others hear is very welcome.

In the case of Priestess, it was rather hard to tell what exactly she is saying. I tried to hear different things, including ‘an act of good’, or ‘the life of good’, and various others, but in the end decided it sounds most like ‘night’, which made little sense to me, so I settled for ‘knight’ which should sound the same. After your comment I listened a few more times, trying to hear ‘light’, but no matter how much I try, I can only hear the sound of N, rather than L. I’m still not sure if I’m right about what she says, but I don’t think it’s ‘light’.

For Green Seer, I also tried to listen a few more times, but here what she says seems much more clear, and I can clearly hear the sharp sound of F in the word ‘life’.

As for the selecting sounds, they exist in the game files, though I’m not sure where (or if) you can hear them in the game. If you’re interested, I can make a list of that too.

Well, perhaps your speakers are better than mine. I do play on iPad after all… I suppose I could try it with headphones next time to see if that makes a difference. And being on iPad, I have no access to those sound files. I’d have to be playing on Steam for that, I think.

If you play autumnal imp spell backwards it sounds like  
“That’s so nice”

Without actually going back to listen for it, and this is just a guess for Tyri, but I think …‘You didn’t _mean_ it anyway’ might actually be … ‘You didn’t _need_ it anyway’ since she is essentially stealing. (Just makes more sense verbally) ? But I could be wrong?

I’ve also always thought Treant says… (Select) **Good-morning** and for (Spell) **Young Tree**? But this is from work at the moment, so I have the right troop for this. There’s some others I’ve always wondered about, but as stated, I’m at work and it’s just not coming to me.

I’m pretty sure Sekma is saying “I MADE LASAGNA!”
