Shogun Total War: only Total War I have really played. Loved it except the battles which avoided like a plague in favor of autobattle. Might and Magic Heroes VI? Hmmm 24/7 internet connection? Tropico 4? Damn, so old is Tropico 3 already? Now I feel lazy about buying it. :/ Sword of the Stars II: interesting. Would prefer to know more about Northstar... maybe after they release this. Dungeons: Never played something like this so obviously, interested. T

When it actually spawn in the map generation and/or you are lucky in your Adventure research' spawns. Lately initial resource spawns seem to be quite scarce. There used to me more stuff in the maps. You can always pick Naturalist for your custom Sovereign and start with an iron deposit.

[quote who="Redwind85" reply="10" id="2844298"]but what about the various champions that roam the world - are they also immortal ? - they need to add aging - dynasty succession - AND they can then add spells like - Prolong life (kingdom) and Sacrifice (empire) to make the channelers live longer [/quote]Sovereign not dying and therefore no succession is because of Lore. About what you mention: Troops don't die of old age neither. But in those cases (champions and troops) are more

Personally, although I don't dislike the idea, I would prefer to have Teleport being limited in range. Instead of being "go anywhere in your ZOC", I'd prefer it to be "go anywhere in a range of X". And that the spell could be empowered by spending extra mana to increase that range (would need some visual feedback to know the range and how it increases by each empowered mana used). I tend to use channeler armies (if you thought that forcing me to waste all my action points for cas

Normal troops don't die of old age!! Unrealistic! And that's just the tip of the iceberg.[e digicons]:O[/e]

[quote who="Ratatosk7" reply="8" id="2843833"] No need for an immortal sovereign if your sov could die of old age[/quote]The Sovereign is "immortal" because of Lore. From a Lore point of view (unless Frogboy changed it lately), you would need to play some hundred of thousands "turns" for that to happen.

I was where the Initial Position says. Gilden was alive (and I had peace treaty with him) and I was trying to face the Kraxis armies. The next turn Gilden finally falls. As I try to move onto the nearest Kraxis army, Markinn appears to tell me that I'm not welcome in his lands and asks me to leave. To which I can choose between declaring war or leaving. I was so confused that just

I don't tend to use the keyboard to play the game so not sure about this one. In the Unit Design screen, if you hit ESC, what gets closed is the training units menu of the city that you can see behind the Unit Design window. Surely not very important but I'd understand that hitting ESC I should be cancelling the Unit Design menu. [e digicons]o_O[/e]

Playing Procipinee with Pariden, no mods. I'm in war with Magnar and shortly after conquering one of his cities (still dead lands) I see a nearby Champion (Yoje) with high attack (apparently a Cedar bow). I send Procipinee and a small group to take him out (bye bye 1 tech point/season!). I have tried a few times and Yoje's behaviour in the tactical combat ends with the battle stuck. As soon as Yoje gets his turn, he tries to reach close combat range. Once he achieves that and

Of the Kingdom of Altar and war casualties Summer 163 A.C. With Urlusuen conquest still fresh, Chuck receives news not to his liking. Apparently, there is a Pioneer of a Kingdom known as Altar that is to the north of the new Mundanian city. Chuck knows what that means: Altar cannot be too far from there. Fall 163 A.C. But before he can deal with the new menace, he is told that they can start learning spells. Chuck doesn't like the sound of that as he has
