[quote who="Heavenfall" reply="70" id="3365173"] For those of you that downloaded 1.0, please go into ChildrenOfStorm_Champions and delete TEMPDEBUGSPELL.xml before before starting up. It will break your gameplay. I uploaded a new copy to the download location without the file.[/quote] LOL, was just coming to ask about this! Thx!

[quote who="FuzzyGold" reply="83" id="3365152"] Unable to find Salt the Earth. Looked in spell books and hero traits. Do I have to start a new game?[/quote] After a patch to see new changes, you ALWAYS need to start a new game. When this game starts it puts a copy of the xml into the save game, that is why patches rarely break the saves. The saved games work, they just don't get the changes.

Getting better, damn near 1500 now! Congrats Stardock! Now release a game I can actually *pay* you for!! ;)

You don't need FE registered with Steam for LH to work. LH is a standalone expansion. That is actually the exact setup I have. FE through Stardock alone, and LH through Steam.

[quote who="lpisko" reply="3" id="3362162"] I appreciate the effort, but I don't think I could handle modding myself. shouldn't this be easy for the Devs to turn on? I mean whats wrong with more variety?[/quote] By "turn on", do you mean for them to modify the game to fit your explicit desire? To start off with very low end weapons is the standard for anything with RPG design. I'm not saying there is anything wrong with what you want, but it doesn't se

I don't think the step from FE to FE:LH was as great as from E:WoM to FE, but having said that, it is still a pretty big step up in gameplay. I think it is well worth the upgrade. (disclaimer: I didn't pay, got it free from pre-ordering E:WoM)

[quote who="doomBlackDragon" reply="15" id="3361450"] Shame my FE is the non steam copy. Which will not work with the free Steam copy of LH. I need a non steam copy of LH.[/quote] What do you mean? They will both work just fine. LH is a standalone expansion, meaning it doesn't need FE installed at all. You can fire up either one and it will work just fine.

Rather than nerfing maul, just give it a max number of hits of say 10. Enough that it may wipe lower level units, but won't attack forever on a decent unit. But 10 is still high enough that it won't nerf maul in a non-prone condition.

Unless I'm completely boxed in, never. This is pretty much the way I play all 4x TBS games. Rarely finish any to the bitter end. The actual win just doesn't mean as much as having fun on the journey.

[quote who="korn469" reply="6" id="3350786"]what happens in the highly unlikely scenario that value goes out of business?[/quote] I'm pretty sure that is why Stardock still has you create/login to an account, this way they have a list of all the registered owners of LH.

[quote who="alaknebs" reply="48" id="3348642"]wait.... if someone bid 800k 1st round..... and the 2nd place @400k drops out.. eh... why was there another round for the 800k to go to 1 mil+ whilst SD remains 2nd place?![/quote] Well it could be that someone who bid 250k in the first round then bid 900k (or maybe the full amount, we don't even know how many rounds of bidding there were, do we?) in the second round. I'd also guess we don't even know th

The only thing I don't care for so far is the lack of ZoC during tactical. I hate that you/enemy can walk right past opposition to get to another unit. I wouldn't mind it as say some type of level-up or special feature of certain units, or for flying units either. But it just makes it a bit to easy to go right for the soft center of the tactical formation.
