Champions/Sovereigns seem to use Faction crest to tell you their race. Considering that each faction has a different race, that would seem the best option but I would prefer races having a different "crest" than that of the factions (think of poor custom factions and such). Nice touch anyway. Similar idea for faction in addition to race? Mangar = (slang) Steal.

[quote who="-RAISTLIN-" reply="4" id="3121181"]blah blah yeah i've heard all the irrational nonsense re steam before, primarily from people that have barely used it and don't know what they're talking about. you can make up as many "reasons" as you like, the rest of us will keep playing and enjoying the opportunities steam provides. FYI steam is a huge part of the continuing success of PC gaming and is one of the best things to ever happen to the platform. [/quote] Your at

I prefer to disable them because at certain zoom levels, they make stuff to look worse to my eye. Plus memory stuff? But I'm not against them being in the game (as option... or disabling them as option).

People only wants MoO II remake that is exactly like it plus newer graphics. So just gather some talented people (to create a clone free of lawsuits), create indie studio and hit Kickstarter. Or just offer cheap preorders like Xenonauts.

[quote who="MarvinKosh" reply="72" id="3112116"] they're a tad overpriced.[/quote] FX Interactive (publisher company) keeps selling new boxed games at 20 euros (like the upcoming "Yesterday" by Pendulo Studios, creators of "The Next Big Thing" or "Runaway"). It has been like that for years and they are not out business and still make profit. And they are so shameless as to dare to translate the manuals and voiceovers to spanish, offer for free some DLC included with the base

My resolution has trouble handling it in late game. Modding new stuff up there (new mana types and/or mounts and/or whatever) makes the problem to appear sooner. :/ The tactical battle screen could use getting rid of the mana bar and in its place put all the mana shards you control and the mana amount you have (possible, being nice and make new "mana types" to automatically appear there too, much like it happens in the strategic map). Or maybe that info could appear under the bar with

[quote who="Fistalis" reply="31" id="3109264"]Actually looking forward to this. I actually wish they would just remake alot of older games with updated graphics since its apparent that when they try to continue an old series the new generation of devs inevitably kill everything that fans of the series enjoyed.[/quote] So maybe when "fans of the series" are dead, companies will be allowed to be creative (sometimes for good, sometimes for bad) with the licenses that they buy?

Nice new leather cuirass texture. :) I hope that in general, and even if slowly, stuff gets more options in their prereqs department. Not just because of Paths but they are one part of the game that would benefit greatly of that. Totally against running in place.

Scared of releasing new games becuase of rabid fans that only want "new stuff like the old stuff"? Try a remake! :p Hint to Atari: MoM Enhanced = Profit.

[quote who="Lord Xia" reply="16" id="3108439"]It spoils the fun because the randomness takes away from what and who my nation is. Picking a sov, picking a faction should lead to a certain play style. Strategy games are about planning. Oh great, my faction has access to super bows, even though they use mages instead...or are weak and have access to masterwork plate...I would rather be able to fit the appropriate tech tree to fit my race, sov, and

Of those three, the blood river certainly looks the most awesome. The corrupted river doesn't seem to... er.. it seems too "flat"? I like it but compared to the others it's less impressive (the white trees are more likely to catch my eyes than the river itself). Probably it's just me though. :) Nice job! :D

What is that crest (Kingdom_Crest_04) that Miloth has along his talents? Placeholder for what? The changes to weapons are cool. Besides units having abilities, I hope that weapons can get quite different even between those of the same kind. I do wonder if there can be an scenario in which I may choose to create a unit using dagger (bandit like) instead of longsword for some kind of obscure tactical reason and not just because of cost/production.
