scouts in early age

Hi all,

the general motto is never to recruit scouts from fortresses, but in many early age games indie scouts are not available, at least not in the early stages. Do you forgo scouts completely...

Re: Yet another new person with a question...

Oh, sorry if it came like that, my point to make was that there are many different approaches and views what is intuitive and what is obvious and how to learn. I took Squirrels statement as an...

Re: Yet another new person with a question...

This is a perfect example of a wrong assumption. I, for example, am not able to convince myself to focus learning an interface for the sake of it and then move on to learn the game. I would have...

Re: Yet another new person with a question...

This burns down to the fact that different people have a completely different approach to the game.

Some people never read manuals and start right out, eventually looking things up when they have...

Re: Vanarus, Machaka Lion Kings etc

I am reading my third novel from Mosambique now, and so far in all of them are plenty of mythological references.

One central theme is the constant interaction with the dead. They can be...

Re: what about the future?

Zeldor, I think they could lower the price but lack the incentive to do so because lowering would not increase sales to any significant amount. That is my guess, and, as far as I can tell, theirs as...

Re: Yet another new person with a question...

Gandalf, plain and simple the nation that most appeals to the player. Because he will stick to the game long enough to learn because he enjoys. Some like stomping around as a giant, others to swarm...

Re: what about the future?

I am probably am very niche here, having bought two games of which I only play dom3 (maybe a third from a bin).

That said, we are facing an audience for this game that does not have the luxury to...

Re: Yet another new person with a question...

One of my first games was Niefelheim, it got boring very soon when I stomped about the map with several groups of the blue giants. That left me with a dull feeling for the game.

Then I started a...

Re: Reinvigoration question

look at the debug output viewing the battle. Run dominions in a terminal with -dd or so, more d's = more output. It says why the AI chose the spell (or not), well not exactly, but it gives hints.

Re: Rohan! version 1.02 (New Content, few bug fixes)

Re: Rohan! version 1.02 (New Content, few bug fixes)

Re: Rohan! version 1.02 (New Content, few bug fixes)

Well, that's sort of the point about Wormtongue, isn't it? He IS a curse and somehow should be in the game.

Re: Rohan! version 1.02 (New Content, few bug fixes)

I downloaded the mod today and it's really nice, especially the graphics.

I post some suggestions here, which come to my mind, mainly for thematic reasons.

I think the King should be mounted,...

Re: EA Agartha - the game's red-headed stepchild (CBM)

Inciting conflicts between powers and not being discovered while harvesting what remains is generally a good plan for any nation, but what does that have to do with Agartha in particular?

Re: Exploit question

Seriously, don't you think that without gem-gens game will drag out endlessly without anybody gaining significant power to win the game, especially on bigger maps?

Btw, I like the monkeys.
