[quote who="Stupidity10" reply="30" id="3157993"]Glen Cook's Instrumantalities of the Night series is awesome. [/quote] Simpson did it! ...erm I mean James Clamens did it a year before in an excellent dark fantasy (with steampunk elements and an Arya-esk character) called Shadowfall. Cook is a horrid writer..no flow to his words at all.

[quote who="ErikCurre" reply="3" id="3156211"]The Malazan Book of the Fallen series is pretty good, and suitably long to keep you occupied for a while. Took me a whole year to read it. The story gets a bit too philosophical and meandering at times, so not quite as fast paced as Game of Thrones, but still worth a read.[/quote] Memories of Ice (MBotF) is one of my favorite books of all time! Symphony of Ages (starting with Rhapsody) series by Elizebeth Hayden and Steven B

A better search function on theseforums would solve that..or some moderation to sticky previously answered questions. In this case I think you are wrong. No way does FE need an always on connection just to update files. Are they really making changes and just not letting anyone know? Thats a poor way to test. And as far as I can tell my game never auto downloads the actual beta update, which would save me some time. Ive never seen my game update itself in any fashion so I'm

I moved to a new apartment this week and discovered I cant play Fallen Enchantress without an internet connection. How long will this DRM scheme interfere with my ability to use the product I purchased?

Would be nice...mine doesnt auto update or give any notice..I have to check the support forum for news

The game's AI currently is a toddler when using all the systems they've added. Sots1 AI is still a work in progress after so many years..they never did get the ships to equip proper weapon layouts or do anything in combat but fly straight for the planet.. Exactly who is going to trust an all clear from a company that called this game "all clear" ready for sale 6 months ago? Honestly/perspective about the condition of their games is not one of Kerberbos' strong points.&nbsp

Blizzard has done jsut about everything bad to a gameyou can 1) Nerfed WoW into the ground for the masses 2) Constant online DRM starting with sc2 3) Real money gaming in d3 Yes a lot of gamers wear black but that doesnt mean we dont have values..I wont put my resources toward a company bent on ruining gaming so some shareholders can feed their trophy women. I'm uncomfortable as it is with Jon "civkiller" Shafer lurking about.

What, my dear sir, is a "Cheeble"?

Good read. Where are sand golems from? Any idea what your total time played is ? Generating money with only 1 city is hard but you do get gold from killing monsters, and you can sell items you dont need and well as spend 2-3 turns with taxes jacked to max.

I can confirm this problem too. In my current game there are two AI cities with Shrill Lords within its boarders and one with Drakes. In all 3 cases the lairs are generating wanderers (good!) but those wanderers ignore the nearby AI city and head towards mine. This has forced me to place troops in all my outposts (good!) but its gets annoying after a while and I really dont like it when I lose a developed city to a shrill army showing up, which is a huge setback compounded by the fact I cant

You did better than me heh. My cities keep getting eaten by wandering monsters so I'm never in the top power rankings. Good read though!

So this is done on purpose then? I find it really annoying that the old land is unusable. Wasnt the destruction of the city enough punishment ?

Hello. The heal spell IMHO is too easily exploited in the hands of a human playeer while the AI will never use it to its full extend. I would propose changing it. Healing needs to be less easy to spam and have some random elements so its not so much better a spell for the human than the computer players. I'd also like to make it so hero units with healing spells are free to do other things during the battle other than heal every turn. I would also suggest creating a healing-type spell for

I like it ..sounds reasonable though is this stretching into mana's territory? I would argue the heal spell itself needs to be reworked..its too easy and make so much sense for a human player to assign one char to just heal every turn..while the AI will never do that. Gotta either get rid of heal or givea version to each type of magic. It feels to me the problem is not overpowered spells its powerful spells like heal being cast every turn. Perhaps eliminate mana all together and m

are you ever going to post vidoes of brad's kids in pjs watching on the big screen...cause pics or it didnt happen

Paradox Marketing again planting ads via proxy

Apples and Oranges. Other than a fantasy backdrop the two games are very different. I wonder if this is a proxy post sent by the paradox marketing firm... "blah blah blah look at our game!"

I dont think you have the opponent map setting correct. Map size is a just a suggestion of how many opponents would fit best on that map but its not a hard number your are forced to honor. The custom settings sets the number of empires in the game..so you could have much more than the map size suggested if you have enough empires generated, or exclude a lot of empires for 1 on 3 or whatver. I'm fond of the current tech tree and dont feel at all that they need to turnicate it. Grab

The first quest I was sent to root out some bandits that died really quickly. The reward was a unit of 5 OP archers that hit in the 30s and got 2 attacks. They basically 1-2 shot everything. Persha Archers or something to that effect. The second quest sent me chasing after a Yeti that attacked a village. In order to get to the Yeti I had to fight 3 Slags which were fairly tough normal I'm sure but my archer made short work of them. Then you attack the Yeti, who died in like 1 hit

Hmm fractured land theme..part of different planes of existence shredding into ours. Parts of the world that double time or half time(double proction double wages double poison dmg ectect).

[quote who="WhiteElk" reply="20" id="3135627"] Quoting Frogboy, reply 8I think maybe this game isn't really for some of you guys. I'm saying that the game *we* want to make is substantially different than the game you want this to be[/quote] Are you offering to refund the preorders if they dont like the direction of the game?

I like the factions refinement thus far..though Magmar looks cartoonish/costumed human. If you are going beast races go 100% not star trek aliens. The world still isnt drawing me in there as there isnt enough visual diversity on the map. Doesnt seem like a world that just went through a cataclym. Zoom level still inst right. Buildings and characters look too small. Sovereign gets OP quick. Drops whole armies of spearmen on his own. Research progression is either too long or too short and as m

Green, brown or purple. Mountain water forest. Are there any more land tiles ? Every part of the world looks like every other esp after you've cleared the area of loots and critters

Type Cntl-N to load a new map. Problem solved. But ya I've found there to be too many long mountain ranges.
