[quote who="CraigHB" reply="53" id="2488842"]I have a couple games I donwloaded no CD cracks for. That's for a couple old store bought games I have. I'd rather not use cracks if I don't have to. It's real easy to end up with a virus or trojan when browsing and downloading that kind of thing. Also, you have no assurance that the cracked .exe will perform properly and is free of mailcious code. I'd rather not go there if I don't have to.[/quote]

[quote who="Sepiche" reply="53" id="2434864"]Kudos for mentioning Dom3. I think there's an awful lot of brilliant game design that went into Dom3 that is all too often overlooked because of it's graphics.[/quote] I thought it was for its interface. Atleast that was what made me uninstall the Dominions II demo 10min after starting it. Lots of menus and....nothing else! I went to their forum and saw this huge walkthrough on how you play it..

Replying on chrismas eve is generous [e digicons]:)[/e] Something else I really want to know, is how exactly is XP shared? Do the unit killing gets extra XP? Do units get XP for units that get killed by summoned unit? (which can't get XP themselves.) So if a Shadow Demon kill two spearmen units singlehandedly do my hero and Warlock share the XP from the dead spearmen?

[quote who="Darvin3" reply="143" id="2482706"]I'm wondering why SupCom:FA is a separate listing from SupCom? Seems to me expansions should be alotted with their parent game so as not to vote-split... Anyways, the list I ended up going with was: Warcraft III Sins of a Solar Empire Civilization IV Medieval Total War Super Smash Bros Melee Rome Total War Baldur's Gate 2 Diablo II</stron

Why pay for an Office version when OpenOffice is available? On my school, the IT department says they won't switch because then the stupid personell would have to be taught to use the new program and that is time they don't work....my solution: Fire the dumb and bring in the smart (unfortunetly, that wouldn't be possible....)

Daughters get married off Sons stay with you Simple, logical and fun (and politically incorrect as a bonus [e digicons]:grin:[/e] ) I support it.

Diablo Battlechest is one of the few games I've bought and it's still fun. There are so many builds to try since v.1.10 where synergies was introduced. I only play Diablo in SP though. Get MULE though. It's a program that lets you store all your stuff. Backup the files though since I've lost it two times due to harddrive failure [e digicons]:([/e] All my items....Tal Rashas weapon and helmet and The Heavens Light [e digicons]:'([/e]

I've read the entire manual about three times now but I need some advice. Here's my setup: 8 Death books Myrran Dark Elves Hard Do you lose fame for razing Village and higher or is it 5000 population and higher? Can you raze a town in some way except for turning it into settlers? Should I raze everything else since I'm Dark Elf? Dwa

Sounds fun. I'll give my take on what positions I think the developers and some forumites should have Frogboy - Sovereign CariElf - Sovereigns wife (Only people related to Elemental are considered [e digicons]:P[/e] ) BoogieBac - Spokesman (the guy who talks to the masses about declarations and stuff i.e. new laws, higher taxes etc.) Island Dog - Head of technology Zoomba - Royal ArchMage?? Scoutdog - Sovereigns Im

Since it's advertising things I like I got no problems with it. I say people are way too sensitive.

Man you're like a tome of knowledge Netriak! [e digicons]:D[/e] I'm surprised there's no equivalent difficultylvl. Already 150% gold, mana, food and prod.pts on Normal! No wonder Impossible was so difficult....300% gold, mana, food and prod.pts....oh well gonna use the High Elves instead of Gnolls this time around....and a custom wizard! Hmm perhaps Chaos magic....

Since there's enough Master of Magic threads around here I'll hijack this one [e digicons];)[/e] I've googled around but can't find the answer. Not even the manual got this one: What are the exact consequenses of the difficulty lvls? I'm guessing that amongt the other things, they get lots of free gold and mana judging from how much they got all the time....I checked them from the Magic menu and with a lowly 3(!) fame they had like 3-5 he

Dammit!! Why did I get the short end of the stick?? Now I realize why I never gotted any heroes or why the A.I players turns went so quickly....not to mention that almost no damn spell worked either! DAMMIT! Think I've found 4 MoM projects but not a single one is finished....why can't those guys work together?? uuuhh seems like Elemental is our last hope....

Surprised that I haven't seen anything about this project since it actually works! No DOSbox, VDMsound or anything else . Just need your 1.31 Master of Magic installation and the download at his site. Sound works too [e digicons]:)[/e] You can choose 13 A.I players and probably 13 human players as well. You can change the rules in an advanced way if you'd like This is the second time I've played Master of Ma

[quote who="Tormy-" reply="23" id="2470306"] 1. Creature models. MoM had lot of different races. It would take a huge amount of work & time to create the models for these units. Also....we don't know that how the armor & weapon model system will work in regard to equipping them on new creature models. 2. Turn based tactical combat. -> We won't have that in Elemental. 3. Different planes. -> We won't have that in Elemental.[/quote]

[quote who="NTJedi" reply="27" id="2462576"]**Remember to allow multiple players for each battlefield as seen within AgeofWonders:ShadowMagic.**[/quote] That was a great innovation and a feature that would allow interesting and big battles. Definetly want that feature [e digicons]:D[/e]

Here in Sweden we think americans have a strange sense of morality with guns and fastfood being acceptable but GOD FORBID a tit or a bottle of booze! [e digicons]>:([/e] Duke Nukem 64: On E1L2 just to the left of where you begin the lvl there's an armsstore instead of the PC version lickerstore ....

Like one of my posts which were deleted and not a single word....the mod that banned him should have revoked posting abilities and sent a PM instead. It's a very lazy way of handling things.

Super Mario Bros 3 - A friend came over just as I was about to defeat the final boss and he saw me defeat him [e digicons]:grin:[/e] Castlevania - I had always died fighting the Grim Reaper (boss of lvl 5, there's 6 lvls) and when he starts to throw the third thing that follows me around it's normally gameover. I had always played in a very technical way and never went allout spamming attacks. So wh

Raven You know that you're letting your feelings control you too much when you only buy Nvidia cards simply because of your personal experiences. You should look at some big study where everything is taken into account, like manufacturer (LeadTek, MSI, Sapphire etc.), kisel quality, developer problems (perhaps ATI rushed the R&D at one or two generations of cards) and such. People I've known in the past are guilty of t

[quote who="Scorpiana" reply="24" id="2455111"]You know, it might be interesting / fun to read some of these threads where you are accuessed of trolling, could you post some examples?

Yeah, we should get a bit more direct instructions when needed. Otherwise the lords & workers scenario erupt.

Hmm Adventure & Magic sounds really powerful together. Some heroes plus powerful spells actually sounds too fun and exciting compared to raising a city and improving an army....Would have to skimp on Warfare and Diplomacy (Civilization is needed for a large population which is needed for techresearch which in turn is needed to research Adventure & Magic.) but that's simply the price you have to pay. It sounds quite fun but balancing thi

[quote who="arstal" reply="34" id="2453540"]If you guys ever do go into console gaming, I'd like to see you hire Dave Sirlin to do an original fighting game, even if it results in a homicide between you and him. (he's good but he may actually be the most stubborn developer out there) [/quote] I immedietly thought about Sirlin.Net and I was right! Well, he knows enough about balancing games, that's for sure!

Dawn of War: Dark Crusade It got a great balance of micro & macro with its squadsystem which works so well. Reinforce the squad with more members, a weapon (which one?) or build a whole new squad..? The heroes are precisely as powerful as they should be. Its interface is also great with autoreinforce, shiftqueing and its stances. I've only played the beta of Dawn of War II so can't take it into con
