I'm curious at what Stardock could create outside of TBS games. They seemed to struggle from the change from space TBS to world TBS. I wonder if they would be able to really create a good AAA game outside of the TBS genre. A turn based roleplaying game in the Elemental universe would neat. Although we would probably only have the choice to play a white human as main character as that's all five kingdoms are made of and even one empire.

Been playing a lot of Sims Medieval...I love that silly game, for all it's flaws and limitations, I think I actually get more RPG fun out of it than just about any game.

My life is forever changed!

Ooh, you can get Ultima IV for free at GOG.com.

I think I had Ultima IV on Nintendo, Quest of the Avatar or something. That was a unique game. Loved it.

Why would you have to move stuff? I truly don't get it...

[quote quoting="post"] What does the wider community think, and what can we do about it? [/quote] I know I don't give a shit, but I'm rare among gamers. I'm sure you will gets tons of people to nerd-rage about this, and any other little thing any Spart-nerd-acus out there wants to rage about. Anger of trivial shit is the way of the forum posting basement dwelling troglodyte.

Can't polish a turd.

[quote who="joasoze" reply="4" id="3086574"]At the moment I think those with access have mostly stopped playing, and are awaiting Beta 2. We have discussed Beta 1 to death So next weekend its all joy for everyone![/quote] I know I have, can only play and talk about the same beta for a week or so. Most of the big bugs are caught and reported by then and many changes are already being implemented and decided on by Stardock for future builds,

I like both of these suggestions.

Funny stuff.

Yay, fuck caravans! Fuck them into non-existence. I usually bitch when things are taken out of the game, but not this time. So glad they are gone!

Remove evoker and make INT enhance spell damage.

Bioware sent me an email that says "Qyzen Fess misses the adventure!" And "Qyzen Fess eagerly awaits your return". Maybe if Qyzen Fess should shut the fuck up.

Need a global item vault, especially when an army kills an enemy and the items they are awarded just disappear.

[quote who="Bellack" reply="35" id="3084684"] Yea and I run around that streets all day dressed in nothing but a thong screaming the "The Aliens are coming, The Aliens are coming" [/quote] Eh, pretty mild compared to a lot of the people I work with...

Bump good info

Race have different stats. Problem is, you can't tell theat until you start a game and train a unit. Nothing in the faction selection or create a faction will tell you what the stats are. Most races have stats that fall between 7 and 11. Altarians have 8 STR 9 DEX 9INT 8 CON, Trogs have 11 STR 7 DEX 7 INT 9 CON. Someone made a topic listing all the races different stats, I will look and bump it for you.

[quote who="AlLanMandragoran" reply="26" id="3033534"] There will be a FE forums support group soon with Xia as a topic of discussion![/quote] Know what's fucking crazy, I run support groups in real life. I even teach others to provide support for adults with severe mental illness. Strange thing about the internet, in real life I am a very nice person with endless patience and compassion...not so much on forums...

I finally believe now that Dragon Age Origins was Bioware's swan song. I'm not even looking forward to ME3...and it should be a major event in my nerd life.

I only have 2 actual games from Stardock, other than FE beta. GalCivs 2, which I would give a 9/10 and WoM which would give about a 5/10. With those two releases they are gien a Xiacritic score of 7/10. What I own of Firaxis, Alpha Centauri 10/10, Civ 2 9/10, Civ 3 7/10, Civ 4 9/10, Civ V 8/10, Pirates 8/10, Colonization 8/10. Giving Firaxis a Xiacritic score of 8.4/10. All scores are subject to change at a whim.

Oh, well, you would really like those boots then. I had my sov with a dodge in the 60s because he was 35th level = +35 to dodge.

I've usually been pretty disappointed with mods in general and don't find them particularly special, usually unstable and filled with rule changes only a small few, hardcore players could appreciate. FFH2 was the rare exception to that. I loved that mod as much as any game ever released.

I've been boycotting this network for years already...
