Elemental: scale of power

Our story so far…

In Elemental, you design your own units. The only units you can create in Elemental are either men or Fallen.

So that we can kill any illusions now: There aren’t cities where you get to crank out armies of Unicorns and dragons or goblins.

There are dragons and trolls and other such creatures in the game. But they are rare, special and have to be recruited.

Your units start out as peasants. And you can train them (which gives them more HP) and you can arm them (which gives them more attack) and you can give them armor (which increase their defense). 

As anyone who has spent time in the military can tell you, one well trained, well armed man is the equal of many many unarmed, untrained men.  So the scale of men in battle is significant.

Of course, when you bring in magic or deal with some of the titanic creatures of the world you quickly see the scope of battle. If you like the Total War series, you can imagine some of what we have in mind except here you can get that Lord of the Rings battle feeling where certain units just make mince meat out of whole squads of enemy units.

Oh, give him a break.  He got trolled and flamed and he took the bait.  It happens to everyone, Rune.  Nothing wrong with him bumping a thread that he referenced in his post so people don't have to scour the forums for it.

Quoting Frogboy,
Yea, we're not going for epic tactical battles. MOM is our influence, not total war.

That tells volumes. In politics, it would be called flip-flopping. Here, it's just letting people down.

*Bump* hehe



 

So lets get this straight, we can't disagree with you in your thread of community wants, but you are free to throw a tantrum in every thread and dredge up old posts?

Dude...QFT...you're an idiot. Where EXACTLY did I throw a tantrum in EVERY thread hmm? What are you 15, 16? Because you act like a child, ok, thanks. Go troll somewhere else. I bumped this thread so new people coming into the game would see what the inspiration is. The last thing I need is to be trolled by some moron who thinks posting something in one thread and then bringing it up in a Dev Requested suggestion thread is "everywhere". If that's everywhere then you're on more drugs than I am. Learn to count dumbass. Unless you have something constructive to say, take your lame ass bullshit elsewhere because those of here with actual intellect don't care to here it, k, thanks. :)
