I put together a UD/SP deck just now, and it "tells" me to choose only one bonus instead of automatically giving two. What's up with that?
I just put together my first SP/UD split BG to test equipment and relics in single-player. As you can see, I did not get half-bonuses for both factions. Played two skirmish games, and I only got one half-bonus, not two, in each game. Also, there is no option to choose an Avatar: when you choose one of the half-bonuses, the corresponding Avatar is automatically selected.
Never mind. I had Cleansing Emerald there, which turned out to be ST/KF rune, not SP/KF rune, as I thought. I was mislead by 15/15 numbers at the bottom.
