Yup, it works on both tiles and units. Whatever the skill/item does on success doesn't affect the script at all, so putting it on a skill that applies effects on a unit if successful won't affect its operation. You could have a skill targeting a tile and specify effects_on_failure that are tile effects (applied to tiles) and unit effects (applied to all units on that tile). For items/skills with a unit target, tile effects specified in effects_on_failure will be applied to the target's tile and unit effects only applied to the targeted unit. I hope that isn't too confusing. As to inserting a html link, it is pretty trivial in Outlook 2010, which is what I'm using as my email client. Instructions for embedding html or creating hyperlinks will depend on what client you use.

Effects_on_failure works for both tiles and units, right? And if it works on tiles, then will it work in a hypothetical skill that has an effect that applies to the unit, if successful? And an unrelated question. How did you get the link to display like that in the email? I've tried html before and it didn't work, and I'm incredibly curious.
