[quote who="smeagolheart" reply="5" id="3409975"] I came for "Black Isle" fans looks here. I was disappointed.[/quote] Why????

This game is getting no attention :( Even on Kickstarter its hard to find. You can click on Staff picks forever and it does not come up. No articles anywhere either. And its looking sooo good. Unhappy smurf here :(
I have played some beta and its the best game I have supported on Kickstarter so far (I am above 20, but many are not finished). I am an old Battle Isle fan and this is the best remake for quite a while. Very true to the "feeling" of the original.
I am a leftie and I still have to think for a sec sometimes when I write 3 or 5. I am 40 years old :) Luckily I write 99% on PC/Phone/Tablet now
Kickstarter projects are very difficult to predict. An article in the right place might do all the difference :)
The AI sure can cast them every round. I got 12 in a row on the same stack. A bit much mayhaps, but it happened to me. Two problems here. The first is that it should not be possible by the rules of the game, second that there is no point in casting on a stack already frozen (bad AI).
http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/1637037674/lords-of-discord New kickstarter project that looks like the child of Heroes of Might and Magic and Kings Bounty. For some reason the russians loves these kind of games (at least to make em), and this project needs to happen. I grew up on Heroes of Might and Magic, but the last two versions are Triple A crap. Please help make this happen. </p
I played this a lot myself. I was put of by reviews and bought it on sale later. Turned out its quite a blast for me. Trying to keep your first units alive all through the game. There are some mighty funny heroes out there as well (I love the rabbit). Well worth it!
I am playing the beta and its great. Lots of small improvements. I would have loved this game to have a turn on kickstarter and pushing all the money into graphics, but this is still one of the best games out there. The strategic options are endless. I have played Dom4 for a month now, and I am still playing and getting into my first nation (Jotunheim).
I am beta testing Battle World Kronos, and its looking REALLY good. Its basically Battle Isle redone and reinvented. Of over 20 games I have supported on Kickstarter, this looks the favourite to be my number one. http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/kingartgames/battle-worlds-kronos-turn-based-strategy-revisited
You will have to install steam client and logon to it. There you will have your library with all your games. Any games you want to play must be downloaded through the Steam client as usual. If a game has saves in cloud, the saves will be available.
I usually like to play the first part of the game and dont do much endgame play. I have a game now on a large map where I have played for quite a while and performance is very bad. The game also hangs about every 20-30 minutes. Hope that the performance and crash fixes are for real :)
About the bell. You could cast some mean magic that has a turn casting time. Then your second hero use the bell. Voila, the mean spell comes in before the enemy can act. Its kinda situational, I will give you that :)
The weakness of the show is that there is so much to tell and so few episodes. Its more like an ad for the books. Its one of the few times its and advantage to actually have read the books first cause your mind will fill in what TV has to skip.
I took the jump and started with Dom 3 a few months back. Didnt play before because of the learning curve (and graphics). Must say that Dom 3 is VERY cool and Dom 4 beta is even better. The UI is improved, and in most game that isnt all that important. Here is really matters cause of the game complexity. Autobuy of units is a super WIN. I love Dom 4 and advise all strategists to try!
Impressive. Hope that those unannounced games arent all IOS, cause then you make me a sad puppy :( Make more 4X :)
I will consider it when it comes to Android. Until then I forget about the mobile division..
I just had Umber cast Tremor on the same army about twelve times in a row. Same army all the time. I was well frozen, but casting on an army that is already immobilized is a tad excessive??
I think you got it :) I found some new unimpressive armour in the shop as well. Anyways, I loaded an autosave but then the city attack never came. I can see by the city defender icons in the city screen that there are three new defenders, but I dont know their stats. Now if only I could get the shadow world spell (I am the race that can buy quests) :)
and just as my city with the temple looked to be under attack, the game hangs :(
I reread the text carefully. It offers armour and not mercenaries. So I guess something is new in the shop, not that I can spot it...
wohooo - make em, and I will buy em. Welcome
I completed a quest that game me the possibility to build the Temple of Secrets. The description says that its quiet, but if the city is attacked it will have forces that will help. This means extra city defenders I suppose. It also says that they will act as mercenaries for those who can afford it or something like that. I cannot recruit any new units in this city. Will I get a popup with offers or something???
I thought they had already gotten rid of their customers, but what do I know [e digicons]:D[/e]
Yes, the amount of excess food a city has influences growth. Hover you mouse pointer over the growth number and get a popup that tell the details. So this will make your city grow very fast for a while. If you want the growth to continue in high speed mode then research and build more food buildings as the game goes along. It can also be a source of multiple pioneers :)
