I agree. Without such remedies, that left panel can be a pane in the ass.

I have Sins with all expansions, but haven't had a chance to play much of it. I did enjoy it though for the short amount of time I put in. I've been hearing more about SotS, and I too am more of a TBS than an RTS person. So, what is SotS like compared to GalCivII complete?
This is exciting. I like Rift Shard by MadMagnus. I can't wait to find out which spell gets implemented!
I think a good way to improve the Diplomacy in the game, would be to introduce a periodic Wizard Council that sovereigns can choose to be a part of. Propositions are put forward, which have to be seconded, and then voted on. The human players should also get to put motions forward from a list.
Try here for some details.
Well now. Isn't it just super that I'm having all the carpets changed at home tomorrow, so I have to spend all of tonight moving furniture. I'm sure this was all done on purpose. I'm not blind to this conspiracy. [e digicons]#:([/e] I have to say though, that if all logs were this good, I'd be a bigger supporter of deforestation. [e digicons]B)[/e]
[quote quoting="post"]I still don't understand why my sovereign auto resolves combat and dies sometimes randomly, but overall combat is greatly improved.[/quote] I think there is a setting for auto-resolve in the options screen. You can set how many units need to be involved in order for player controlled tactical combat to initiate. At least I think so from memory. I'm at work and can't check. Confirmation anyone?
Think flight simulator Glowing_Ember. If you've played enough of those, you get your head re-wired whether you like it or not.
I don't have time to play games! I've barely even played Elemental. Why must you torture me so?? [e digicons]X([/e]
[quote who="Frogboy" reply="25" id="2843986"]Depends who the mod specialist is. Most of you have probably heard of him.[/quote] And now the guessing game begins. Is it Heavenfall? Seanw3? Is it an experienced and well known mod-developer from another game? Throw us a clue!
[quote who="marlowwe" reply="10" id="2843850"] At the same time, there have been developers who have released smoking piles of buggy crap and then left it to dry in the sun and be stepped on. How is that a justification for anything?[/quote] It isn't. The comment was regarding the level of post-release service, and not the justification of a poor release. Stardock has a history of supporting games post-release, and this is where the
[quote who="marlowwe" reply="5" id="2843801"] Quoting Ratatosk7, reply 1...while a lot of developer/publishers out there simply drop all support post-release as if they never were involved in the game in the first place. Well "a lot of developer/publishers" also tend to release finished games with concrete systems and a semblance of balance. As far as I am concerned all of these post-release patches we are getting are simply an extension of development. I'm getting a little bit ann
I'm more interested in undergarments for Sovereigns and Champions. Uncomfortable underwear can really take a person off their game, and affect their overall performance. We should get better styles of jocks and bras that increase our 'Luck' factor in the game. Also, clothes with built in special particle effects. What are all these pixels swirling around my nether regions you ask?

Currently, Israel denotes a certain section of land mass on this Earth, and an Israeli is typically a person of Jewish descent, as Palestinian Arabs tend to hold to their own nationalism.' By your definition, to have faith in God means to accept Jesus as your Lord and saviour. Jewish people don't. So does that mean that the Jewish people who curr
I have had fairly quick response from Stardock support. I don't know what the general case is, but so far there seems to be some good and some bad, though the reasons seem to be quite fair when it comes to some delays. Overall I would guess that it's pretty good, especially compared to some other software companies. But then again, I tend to lean on the positive side of things, so there might be some bias there. Nesrie I find to be quite negative quite often. No offense Nesrie, I like
[quote who="Whiskey144" reply="79" id="2840201"] Except that the Church doesn't replace Israel. God's promises to Israel still stand firm; the geographic location IS the rightful property of Israel.

That example is much better. Though what you are describing is a tactical strike aimed at disabling the military effectiveness of the offending nation for the purpose of causing them to desist in their attacks. I wouldn't even call that disproportianate, because proportion becomes irrelevant given that motivation, and the target is not human life or national infrastructure. My point is still relevant to that example if you apply it to Nation B. If they don't want to be attacked and wa

[quote who="Whiskey144" reply="73" id="2839991"] Quoting Istari, reply 72 That is the position most commonly taken by people who want to commit foul acts and be protected from the repercussions. By all means, build up a massive military might and showcase it to the world to show them them that it would be a very bad idea to attack you. But on the other side, how about as a government, dealing fairly with your own people and the international community, and not giving the world a mil
[quote who="Whiskey144" reply="69" id="2839884"] And then you come into the problem of the fact that those who have no compunction against the commitment of devastating acts will commit them.

I think I understand what Luciela means by 'war is wrong'. Basically meaning to say that war is not a good thing for either side involved, as it causes loss of human life and often mass destruction of infrastructure, leading to reduced prosperity and stifled advancement towards a better quality of life. But, to take a real life example, let's examine the situation in Palestine. It was occupied by the British forces, who were put under pressure by governments such as the U.S to cede th
