I understand the tragedy of Procipinee now. It's not about his father being associated to the Titans and when the humans defeated those, she and her people being margined as Fallen, even ignoring the great sacrifice of his father for the future of all the living beings. No. The true tragedy is that no one has any idea of how to pronounce her name!!![e digicons]8O[/e]

Different factions that played different. Turn based. Really. Heroes (that we had them and who they were). Item creation. To be able to create my own wizard and have a very nice list of perks to select from. Angels and Archangels. Different types of magic that played different. Two different planes that... you know. (memory issues or not) Simple interface where it was easy to find everything. <li
Now that I check this again... Weren't Sions the children of the Channelers, descendants or something? --> https://forums.elementalgame.com/374237/get;2515718
[quote who="Frogboy" reply="6" id="2535492"]We aren't going to do any real pushing until beta 3 when the graphics engine is in and we're closer to shipping. [/quote]The graphics engine is in . The problem is that it's not on .[e digicons]:O[/e]
Don't worry, it happens. I don't think that's the best place to put the external link but once you know it goes there it becomes easy to spot. :)
Thank you, BoogieBac. No one would have wanted halfbaked factions anyways so it's a wise choice. ;)

[quote who="GW Swicord" reply="31" id="2534813"] On the silly front, if you haven't read Niven's "Man of Steel, Woman of Kleenex," I believe you'd enjoy it. [/quote]I did read it and I did enjoy it. Great laughs too.[e digicons]:grin:[/e] One of the reasons I liked The Book of Erotic Fantasy was not because it was about sex/erotica. But because if magic were to exist, it would include that aspect of our live too. And surely some people would create some of the spells mention
[quote who="GW Swicord" reply="9" id="2534825"] and this 'essence leakage' thing seems to be a suggestion for a positive effect on terrain and/or units. [/quote]As long as it's neutrally positive (with Trait option of not being positive) in the sense of even ally/enemy terrain/units getting the benefits too of it, that's fine. The idea has potential per se but it also has potential for complex microsystems that don't pay off.
[quote who="MagicwillNZ" reply="11" id="2535068"]I'm not really sure I like this idea. More magic if you cohabit? How does this make any sense? [/quote]Trying to understand what sourrounds you instead of obligating it to your will? So instead of using your tools to build your city in the way you want it, you build it according to the natural flow of the enviroment maybe developing a "symbiotic" relationship with it?
I'm glad that my spelling totally sucks![e digicons]:O[/e] Prosipaini![e digicons]:X[/e] Still waiting for the 10 faction retcon confirmation? The quality is always better than the quantity but I feel curious.
I always thought of the "leaking" as radiation. "Leaking" liquids for this "leaking essence" would be like... the Sovereign spits when talking? So He leaks on anyone he talks with? XD
[quote who="Shurdus" reply="6" id="2534778"]Can and will. I dislike any campaign that tells me what I can and cannot do. I want this game for the sandbox exoperience and I will ignore the campaign. I would not want any campaign that tells me I cannot build building x this mission, or that I cannot train unit x because I have 'learned' enough for this mission. I want to mess around with each and every feature. In the end, becoming a solid player is very much intertwined with knowing
That Sierra Softporn has been... unexpected.[e digicons]o_O[/e]
The random world name generator of Elemental has suggested the following: Saseruu; Lagnaplur; Ireq; Soodehul; Saecrand; Rippawii and Iran. I vote for "Swamp Behemoth" but I suck at naming. In Stargate Atlantis I'd be naming Puddle Jumpers as Gateships.
Do I need to subscribe? Does it have monthly fee? How good is the high-end content? And the loot? Many servers or one server with many shards? Cannot wait.[e digicons]:)[/e]
[quote who="Cerevox" reply="29" id="2534686"]I don't want her getting pregenant when she is on a different continent. [/quote]Teleport seed? Infidelity with another Sovereign? Virgin Mary? Self-fecundation?[e digicons]:omg:[/e]
The Dire Wolf seems to suffer a serious case of undeath. ;) Two Edars, please!
[quote quoting="post"]In Elemental: War of Magic, players are one of these Channelers. There are 10 default factions to choose from (or you can create your own). [/quote]10? Anyway, about fashionable time that we got more lore/history/story stuff. I enjoy a lot to read such things. Thaaaaank you very much.[e digicons]:thumbsup:[/e]
Selective leaking is not fun. Affecting only troops is not leaking... (egads x3)

[quote who="GW Swicord" reply="25" id="2534511"] That's yet another case where the details of the game story and the draft mechanics will make all the difference. What if it comes down to something as simple as sovereigns becoming decreasingly fertile as they gain magical power?[/quote]That sounds quite... plausible? As long as we avoid a scenario of more Heroes/Scions than normal troops, I'm fine with almost anything. ANd that sounds good.
[quote who="vieuxchat" reply="3" id="2534461"]How could anyone forge any opinion about a game that is still ... in early beta ? [/quote]Some people are full of themselves? :P Bad Frogboy though. Scaring potential customers telling them about the psycological scars of the dynasty system. Tsk tsk.
I foresee bug reports like "Child not ugly enough when mating with goblinoid flavored Fallen". And threads about pics of those "monsters" (and you read it here, by yours truly!). The avatar thread is going to be a joke compared with those. And just wait for the avatars based on them! XD
