Wish-List for Dominions 4

Yeah I knew that trick, but like you said it still doesn't help if your army has a bunch of mages.

add "enter site to get" units to the recruit screen greyed-out

I might be missing another obvious helpful button or something but here is my problem. It involves abit of micro-management.

When I have a large map and I have mages doing auto-searches then I occasionally have to use F1 and scroll thru all of the finds to see if there are sites which allow recruiting something new or where a mage can enter to get a unit. Some of the sites are not helpful in their naming. The ones that sound like they might give me a unit, dont. And the ones that do, arent always named in a way to make that obvious. So all in all its pretty time consuming. Kristoffer and Johan might not notice since they create the sites and probably knows them all by name.

Now the ones that allow recruiting a new unit I will often stumble across as Im revisiting the province. Just moving armies thru them will usually have me reminding myself of what I can make there and I will notice something new that I got from a found site that I hadnt noticed before. Can we get a unit showing there for sites that a mage enters? Maybe showing it greyed out as if it needed a structure but the help text would instead say something like "requires a death mage".

[Gandalf Parker]

Or... alternatively...
a message whenever a mage finds a special site (anything not involving gold or gems).

I would like to get a more permant way of grouping units together.

To explain, I often group three mages together for manual site searching. However, when the results are announced on the message screen, the mages are listed (I am guessing here) by their unit ID number, which means they are scattered about the message screen, which may be two pages, most probable if I'm playing a 250+ province map and have 10 to 30 units searching on any given turn. So when I go to the first unit listed, it is the only unit highlighted and my group is broken unless I am smart and clever (small enough chance, not even worthy of consideration) and remember that this particular independent mage is part of a group.

Alternatively, if site searching results were listed by province instead of unit number, I would have a better chance of maintaining the groups integrity.

I also have the same problem with armies when I pause in a province and do. some construction, patrolling and site searching

I agree that would be a nice feature. I the interim I sometimes rename the mages for the same effect, e.g. Bless-E, Arty-E, and Buff-E compose task group E (for "East army").

[Edratman]

max, that's a good idea. I rename now for various other reasons, but I haven't thought of extending it to a group.

So that gives me another thought, make renaming allowed the default option on the menu screen and "No renaming" the option requiring the click. That will save me on the times when I forget to click on renaming allowed, which always seems to generate a starting province with six or seven neighbors, all forest and/or farmland and positioned in a corner of the map.

My wishlist is this (some of my wishes, people have already stated):

1) The ability to customize your nation and Pretender. I want to pick what my Pretender's titles are! The nation can be default one that has been altered or one that you created from scratch.

2) The ability to spare another nation's Pretender. This lets you create a pantheon. In fact, I hope they have a feature where you can actually create a pantheon of allied pretenders for a nation, or choose to play a single pretender. For example, I might have my Ulm's Virtue spare the life of Mictlan's Enchantress, making the Enchantress a member of a new Pantheon for Ulm.

3) The ability to create a hero. I want to create a hero that is unique.

4) Diplomancy: This would include such things as alliances, trades, and spying.

5) I want to be able to create unique buildings. For example, as Ulm is my favorite nation, I want to create the Iron Statue, a statue made of black iron that grants a morale bonus to all my forces in the providence it's in, and any 3 neighboring areas.

6) Allow us to purchase and download the game!

Basically, everyone's already mentioned some of my wishes already.
