I've discovered something really odd in Might and Magic 8 which I thought merits sharing.
I wanted to cast Town Portal with my Lich, but accidentally clicked on the "Set quick spell" button (because Town Portal is in the bottom left corner of the book, it's quite easy to do so) without any spell selected. However, instead of the usual "erase sound", I heard my Lich announce the spell was ready. I went to the quick ref page to see what on Jadame he set as his quick spell when I had none selected, and lo and behold, it's the Fly spell. This is especially curious because he doesn't have the spell; what's more, he's only Expert in Air Magic! It seems it hasn't caused any problems for the game (no crashes/corrupted saves/whatever), either.
I tried this with my main char, a Cleric of the Sun, and he got the Psychic Shock spell, which he also couldn't even cast at the time.
Anyone else encountered this?
