Re: The Masterized Game / Evolutive mod concept

I'd definitely be interesting in playing in a game like this!

Re: Rant

I vote for Rhyleh to AI, unless Shawn request otherwise.

Oh and nice write up doctor!

I was going to write something stupid in reply... but it would pale to the elegance of your post so I'll...

Re: Announcement from Tien Chi

It might have been that way. But was we stated truthfully throughout we were utterly unprepared for Caelums alliance with Tien empire. Sadly were were not able to shift gears fast enough, and ULM...

Re: Repeat request.

Newthough,

I find the idea of a spell that simulates battles incredibly interesting! This is really almost a completely seperate issue from the save game... but what a neat idea!

I'd say the...

Re: Gandalf\'s Crazy Solo Games

Here is another idea. Although this would be much better for a MP game instead of AI.

A map like this (see attachement) could be built for any number of players. Basically a spoke wheel of...

Re: Improved Multiplayer

I really like that idea Gandalf. Actually what would most likely happen is you do your most critical turn elements and submit it. Then go back and do more things and hope to have time to resubmit...

Re: Gandalf\'s Crazy Solo Games

It would certainly be a very different game and would definitely need to play with balanced nations (all good rushers or all bad). What would be interesting is no provence would every be "safe". So...

Re: Gandalf\'s Crazy Solo Games

That is an interesting idea Alex. Even a map with say 60 provences where every provence connects to every other one would be interesting.

Or something like each capital connects to every other...

As a programming manager it is not my job to figure out how to actually do things, only to assign the job. As you can see from my first post I already mapped out 95% of the task. All that needs to...

Oh.. and not exactly a stale turn. More like. I got my turn in, I want a new turn to play NOW, so the computer would take yours for you. As long as the computer did exactly what you would have...

Maybe with the next patch it would...

Re: Lifedrain

A huge benefit of a large number of attacks is hitting high defense units. Since each attack lowers the units defense by 2 point.

I am curious how that effect works with quickness.

Re: The fall of Helheim

It is true the glorious, fair and democracy building nation of Helheim has fallen. The combined weight of Tien Chi and their puppet was to much for us to bear.

Our forces will continue to harass...

Re: Why no Save game Feature

Didn't someone write a tool that automatically saved each turn?

In the same way some might say "just don't use the save" others could say "just save your game manually".

In either case the...

Re: Why no Save game Feature

Re: New Game PBEM

Can you provide a list of all of the players set to AI? Or is there a way to tell from the game. I used to think it would tell you as you hovered over the flag in the game entry page.

Re: New Game PBEM

Manuk had requested that we wait a day so he could get his turn in. My suggestions of 48 hours was only to prevent us from having to make changes to the game for such request (or ignoring them).

Re: New Game PBEM

If everyone is open to idea I could control Ermor, Ulm, Ctis and Caelum as moneky puppets of Kailisa. I promose they would act in our best interest exclusively.

Re: New Game PBEM

I don't think an autohost will work well with how many people have left the game, unless they are set to AI.

Maybe moving to 48 hour host would be a better solution and let people have enough time...

Re: Caelum and 2 changes to gameplay

Caelum is my favorite nation. An effective early expansion strategy is to only buy archers (production scale helps) and use your initial infantry for guard duty. Then spread 4 archers across the...

Re: Almost certainly deliberate.

I wish blood hunting took the size of population into account in determining how much unrest it causes.

Surely snatching up 10 young homeless people from a 30k city would cause much less of a stir...
