Hi, if you tame a greyed out beast (you can see if it is a greyed out beast or a regular one in the army information square) it will join the city garrison if your army stops over in the city. If you just move through the city in the same go it will stay in your army. You cannot cast unit spells on the greyed out beasts. From what I've observed, roaming beast (the ones that leave their liars) are regular ones, the ones that stay guarding the liars are greyed out. Don

Thanks UncleJJ44. You say t he basic game at normal speed will replace a shard demon 10 turns after it is lost. In my current game on 1.1 my Young Mirror Elemental killed in battle was replaced 8 turns after it was killed. (Btw, it's really easy to lose Mirror Elementals in battle since they start with 8 hit points only and are regularly targeted first both by ranged and m

I think the "binding" trait is really cool but I'm confused as to how the mechanism is supposed to work when you have more than one shard of a kind and when you lose your elementals in combat. I have the impression they are spawned sometimes. The manual only says "Resoln periodically gains powerful elementals from shard shrines". So does anyone know what they mean with "periodically"? Thx

Thanks Leo. But still this is auto-save lag is a new "feature" introduced with 1.01. With 1.0 I had no such issue...

You were right! Thanks. So I turned off auto-save and the long wait times between those turns are gone. But I still think it's weird because if I manually hit "save" it only takes a couple of seconds to do so. The reason it takes all that time in auto-save mod still puzzles me. Maybe the Devs can look into this.... Regards, farkas

Last week I installed the 1.01 patch and to my surprise I now have a weird performance issue (I run Windows XP): every time I hit the turn button at the end of turn 5, 10, 15, 20, etc. I get totally unacceptable wait times between turns. Just to give you a couple of examples I clocked the time from when I hit the turn button to when the cursor is transformed back from hourglass to sword: 1. Resoln (with custom sovereign): turn 5: 4:25 turn 10: 4:10 turn

@ Havoc1128: Hey man, you're a genius. It worked! Thanks!

Same problem here. I believe it's because I changed the password of my Stardock.com store account. Tried to run the game from the comand line (as suggested by the error message) but when FE starts to fire up (black screen, mouse cursor turns into a sword) it soon displays a "String not found" message. So now I'm accessing both forums.elementalgame.com and the Stardock.com store with the new password and both work. It's "just" the game that's not working. <
