I see to deferant problems here: 1. Sov displacment when building a city. 2. Unit displacment when leaving garrison. for the first one I would suggest to just automaticly garrison the sov in the city, for the second one I would suggest to spawn the unit the city tile (the one you get when you first build the city) Warder
You don’t research “magic swords” but instead would take a mundane sword and equip a fire magic kit with it. Players can equip multiple kits with their unit to make them increasingly lethal (but expensive) or defend against fire damage by using a defensive fire magic kit. I don't understand this, does that means that we will get a seperat window to design weapons and armor or is this a kit like the the scouting kit currentl
Frogboy how easy is ti going to be to mod in damage types and other charactaristics to "mundan" weapons?
Thanks you frogboy, hope you had a nice Thanksgiving [e digicons]:grin:[/e] I hopr the tactical battle will live up to our excpectations, bu that what the beta is for. Warder

Woot? I would like to know where you seen such places in teh ME, just so I can go and check them out myself.... (I currently live in the ME) Warder
Exactly what I had in mind. Warder
I don't think that you got my point about AI management. Currently, when I play the beta, I usually got 5-6 cities around turn 100, 6 cities means 15 caravans one between each city, having even 3 groups hunting them down manually can be annoying but not that hard..... but lets take a look at a mid-game situation on one of the 64-bit version of the game ( with humongous map) and you

[quote who="mrakomo" reply="31" id="2446094"]After the research breakthrough appeared, I think there shall be some notice how difficult the technology you can choose from are. I mean you can choose a red technology, but you don't see it is actualy red. The player sees red green etc. when he chooses the research path, but after that, several (possible) long turn passes - enough time to forget it.[/quote] Agreed, there should be somethi
[quote who="BoogieBac" reply="17" id="2385439"] Netbook support is going to be looked at later from the sounds of it... Well, we're looking into technoloigies to make our screens run happier at the smaller resolution, but in general the netbook stuff is will be given development time after the main game is really looking good.[/quote] What about an iPhone version? :P Warder

[quote who="Scoutdog" reply="24" id="2443485"]I'm still not sure about important techs like seamanship being RNG-controlled.

[quote who="BoogieBac" reply="81" id="2432115"]For clarification, I beleive the free 'low level' tech mechanisim should work like this. - old techs will eventually turn GREY (this is after you've passed them over them around 8 milestones in that same category) - when a milestone is completed, the game will look to see if that category has any outdated 'grey' techs - if so, there's an overall 10% chance of getting one for free - if you roll a freebe,
[quote who="BoogieBac" reply="69" id="2431980"] As stated by another poster I think it would make it always preferable to pick the rare red tech and try to drive as many techs down to grey as possible. I disagree. You're still making a choice of one thing over the other...and you dont INSTANTLY get it when it turns grey. You may have to hit 10 additional milestones to get 1 low-level freebe. No no no, if we do so we end up in a situation where eventually, no m
[quote who="Frogboy" reply="65" id="2431831"] -snip- I would liek to suggest a fourth tech color - grey. And I think that it should be used just as it is used in an MMO (when an opponent is so far beneath you that killing it does not give you experience. My suggestion is that 3 or 4 (or whatever you guys deem appropriate) tech levels beyond when a tech "goes green" that it goes grey. It can still be selected when a breakthrough is made. However, each tech on the grey list has a 10% chanc
