Why??!!

Why can't I smash this particular tile?

It will leave the mountain floating. The text is wrong.

Seems like a reasonable case for letting the player swap existing tiles for another for 2 AP.

The text is not wrong.  But is this a new savegame?

If it's an old savegame and you already have some disconnected town centers, then it just won't let you smite at all, anywhere, until they are all connected.

If it's a new savegame, and it's specific to some particular tile, then it's probably a bug.

It's a new game (807 start).  I was able to clear that tile after I cleared the mountain beside it (zharmad).  That one Archery (what I placed there) cost me 3 AP to place that turn

Well, a savegame demonstrating that before you fixed it might be nice if you have it.  Something for mantis.

It's something I can probably recreate.  I'm not sure where my last save was for this game

Edit: Lucky!! Those tiles exist in my last save.

It's a bit of a pain to load another players saves right now.  You have to create profiles for that player then load the save... At the time that one popped up, I didn't have a profile with your name on it

I've seen this bug as well.  I dont have a save for you though, unfortunately.

It randomly chose a tile and wouldnt let me break it, for no apparent reason.... but 5 or so turns later (with no real change to the map, just tiles appearing on the outer edges) it stopped doing it, and I was able to break the tile.

There is a rule that tiles can't "hang" currently. At least not by your own smiting. Thats what I think is preventing smiting them although message is a bit strange and thats the actual bug.

Figured it out, thanks!

* Fixed a bug with "can this be smited" detection that was causing some really wonky "no you cannot" answers.  Specifically when you were smiting something that would leave an orphan bit of land on the eastern side.  Don't ask.

I'm sure the answer was buried in ones and zeros
