Here is the link to the Illyriad posters. There are four other discoveries as well, involving Tenaril (x2), Thieves Cant and Sight of the Moon.

There is another thread about those discoveries and there has been no notification as to whether they have even been released yet, although it is somewhat likely they have been.  However, I think that artwork has been around longer than Duraz Karag.

Hi,

I did notice that  Duraz Karag is spread over 5 different squares, so I sent diplos (Scouts & Spies) to each of them - same report came back as everybody else.

Damn this is frustrating  Wacko

There is one more thing I'm looking at that I've not seen mentioned anywhere, but it will probably lead to nothing!

I crafted over 1000 Upland plate in one of my dwarvish towns in one go, and it did not unlock a discovery. If there is a set amount of armor necessary to craft before you can discover it, 1,000 is not it. I suspect I've made over 2,000 in this town, but I have not kept track.

Has anyone crafted items from every category (horses, spears, swords, bows, leather armor, chain armor, plate armor) within the same town?

I think making one of each of the armors you can research could unlock it

In about 1 week I will have made 1 of every type of armour, to see if this works to unlock the Human armour discovery.

Will let you know if it does.

The Scout report from Duraz Karag has a number of possible leads, most of which seem to have been looked at.  Has anybody looked at any links to the Dwarven factions mentioned in the report ?

"The remains of a royal hall cover an area big enough to contain a whole village. In the ruins of crumbled townhouses are the Clan crests of dozens of proud families, some familiar (Moedagh, Reashag, Bealagh), others long forgotten by all but the Dwarves."

If you read the profile of those 3 factions, 2 of them mention specific trade hubs. Clan Bealagh doesn't mention any one hub in particular.  

The first thing that crossed my mind was to scout each location .... but you can't scout trade hubs.  So I've send traders to the hubs to see if that does anything  ( hopes of a good result are not high!).

Any thoughts ?

Good idea. I've read the descriptions before but nothing jumped out at me as thinks to interact with. Maybe you have to have traders present in one of their trade hubs. But Faction AI isn't live yet, so it can't have anything to do with winning their favor. 

Maybe if you sell enough armor in one of their hubs?

I haven't sent a trader to a Dwarven hub, but I've researched most of the dwarven faction descriptions. I also spent a significant amount of effort trying scouts and spies in the area of Glinntre, investigating the backstory of Treggar's Crows. I didn't find anything of note there, but I've started a map on graph paper, and I'll be systematically hitting those squares of the coming weeks. I had high hopes I that would discover something cool in the Ancient Lair square located conspicuously near Glinntre.

I don't expect these efforts to bear fruit, however. There seems to be a great number of things implied in the faction descriptions that appear to be meta-game fluff, rather than something concrete that you can interact with in the game.

I am, however, holding out hope that we will eventually stumble upon something like the Human Statues Mystery, which was great fun to complete. I rather enjoyed scrolling all around the map looking for the rumored locations. I wish that quest would have lasted a lot longer.
