Your hawks perform the mission and it is successful!
Your hawks have recruited 0 new workers!
Workers:  -15,745
Hawks:  +572
Runes:  +8,012
Mice:  0
Squirrels:  +4,196
Hares:  0
Otters:  +932
Population before casting the spell: 754,487
Population after casting the spell: 764,597

All of the military units were added properly, so they aren't part of the bug.
The spell claims it added 0 workers. The turn results say that I lost 15,745 workers. In reality I gained 10,110 workers. I just tried spending 2 turns trading, and lost about 6k workers. It looks like (despite what the game says) the spell gained me the 15k workers that it says I lost in those 2 turns, but I lost 5k for lack of housing or whatever, so I wound up with an additional 10k.

So, it would seem this is a simple display bug.

Should be fixed. Care to verify, anyone?

My test with the admin account on WOA seem to confirm the bug is fixed. Of course, I'd still like player verification.

(I fixed it on both Dev II and Stable, FYI.)

No problem. I'm fairly sure it's fixed anyway.

Whoo the Devari is 1337. I would boost his karma but...

[edit] And, I meant, on top of things. Thanks! :D

I have a couple minutes, so I'm trying to go through some old bugs. :)

Yep, works correctly now.
At least now we know why the recruit spell never seemed to work before. It was actually working, but the display was screwed up so it looked like it wasn't working.

Yep, thank you very much.
