How do you get Mana in combat

i hate to bump but i seriously have don't know, anyone?

It is one of the complaints. You do not regenerate mana in battle; you only gain it at the rate of 1 mana per game turn.

It bites, yes it does indeed.

RAT

potions or certain units Regen it.. Heroes and sovereigns as a rule do not..

well that's kinda lame, thanks guys

You can't.  Certain creatures do, but not all (I have a fire elemental that does but my earth elemental does not).

Some children regen mana during combat as well.

mana regeneration is related to wisdom stat i think and there are a few improvements that increase the mana regeneration of units try some of the civic and magic research improvements to help 

Its a trait that some heros and creatures have.  Almost all of my kids for instance, regen 1-2 mana per combat turn.

Wisdom only affects the action point cost of using spells in battle.

It's possible to mod in items that can do it, as the stat DOES exist. Nothing uses it yet though.

Make sure to post a suggestion about it.

Every single one of my kids regens man in combat. I often get into fights with them and extend them beyond all reason just to recover my mana.

I'm using this mod which greatly improves and expands the sovereign talent choices as well as those found on "champions".

One of 'em is "Mage" which APPEARS to fix the lack of sovereign mana regen, though it could be a base fix in the mod itself.

So, due to being able to stack movement into the realms of absurd, and then regenerate mana -in- combat, you could theoretically run around the tactical map getting all your mana back before you end the fight/flee?

Sigh, they really gotta fix some of this stuff!
