Lol try and play Shogun 2 with steam cloud enabled. That is a great reason to not have steam.

I usually just copy your xml into new files and then do my own tweaking. I can 90% of the time get it to work with the things I have been collecting over the past year of mod scavenging. I would prefer separate downloads for my own needs. But why not have a complete version for noobs and a fragmented one for vets?

I think you guys are too concerned with the process and not the result. Giving the AI a major and minor spell class and making it choose between them is so simple. The end result is confusing a human that is only ready to defend against one element. You should be able to make this kind of AI choose a suboptimal spell and attack the weakest unit without much trouble. The hard part is what to do once the human or other AI has learned that trick. The AI would only need to do it once, as humans w

Does anyone know if he was cryogenically frozen? He had the means to become one badass Mr. House. Somebody needs to fight Walt Disney in the 34th century. This one is for you Jobs. [e digicons]:beer:[/e]

Hmm... the fact that you don't think they are journal worthy makes me want them all the more. Maybe a little screenshot of a level 5 city? [e digicons]:inlove:[/e]

I really wish the book of summoning had upwards of 200 total spells. It needs to equal every tier of the training option for magic based nations. There should probably be 10 levels of spells as there are 10 levels of units. Research should be costly, but easier for magic focused nations, so that it is something that is equal with unit training and hero recruiting. I would like to see a total cost analysis of each option. I understand that the current direction for summons is a s

I would bet end of November.

Sweet! We are getting logistics. The best part of GalCiv IMO.

In Tropico you can "misplace" your political opponents.

Bear cavalry?

I am planning on having hero only armies as a viable strategy. This would seriously derail the reliability of champions. I do think that minimum Charisma is a good idea. Getting a fallen champion should require a high charisma, but be possible for a Sov that is focused on recruiting. I hope we can do something like that.

Am I correct in saying that the game is already made? The content is decided. Changing any of it now unless it is totally broken will certainly derail the project. We should spend less time talking about how other games were great and a little more on the capabilities of this one. I think the problem is that none of us have seen a tactical battle, or complete spell list. We have some things to base it on from previous posts, but it might be nice to see a play by play that you ar

In an effort to balance the Ivory Tower mod, I will likely make four additional mods to give each area of study a unique strategic option. For the sake of people who prefer a professional army to magic, we will have The Order of Talos. The Order of Talos is the protector of man. It's primary goal is to protect the many realms from the dangerous power of magic. Although, they do use magic to spread their many legions throughout the realms, they prohibit its use and declar

I would also like to be able to stamp my cancer so I can easily add it to other parts of my body. Going through the vascular system is so 20th century.

Um... I am pretty sure FE will have boat travel guys. Frogboy has said that this is something he would like to expand in a future sequel. Something like Seafarers of Elemental.

I will always do a manual tactical battle. I like to role play during the battles. The units get quite a bit of dialog.

Tropico 4's campaign is merely a decider on what kind of island sandbox you want and the flavor of random events. Very smooth. Very well done.

Keeping mind the new iteration of random bonus buildings, I plan to make some really overpowered level 3,4, 5 buildings to be included in the random function of building. In fact it may be that every significant tower addition is added in this way, each one shaping the form and function of one's realm. Hoping for an aviary and getting a dragon's roost would just be so sweet. The problem will be preventing a wizard from having any of the available buildings from the vanilla pool. I won

I would really use one genie wish to make it so that a group of objects could be locked together as one stamp. We used to be able to do this. I often find myself creating an epic column or tower, only to realize the whole thing must be moved. Having to reposition upwards of ten objects is just ragifying. I hope this can be easily added. I really wish objects could be melded together into one object. That would be so much easier on slow computers. I am st

Ivory Towers will also give the Sovereign a choice to summon buildings. This can either be accomplished by copying the firewall spell I know will be in the game or by having a very powerful finish building spell, akin to the Beauty and the Beast cleaning montage. Things will literally build themselves, a simple task for a skilled wizard. Certain additions will be available to the Tower, such as an arcane library, aviary, intelligence bureau, holy chapel, graveyard, and maybe even a landing ar

I would really like to see some spells that stay on the field of battle as long as they are in effect. 1. Enchanting a unit should make them glow or shine so that it is readily apparent and awesome what has happened during a battle. 2. I would like to be able to block large areas of the battlefield by summoning a vortex or lightning storm that stays there for several minutes. 3. Entering an affected area should start a new animation to show damage to

Remember when your children could get +2 health per turn and +2 per mana per turn? That was a Dynasty. If they did revamp the Dynastic system I would hope we could marry cousins and second cousins to keep the blood line clean. Since this is an essence based fantasy game, we should expect incest to actually work, unlike the British Kingdom. Every mudblood you allow to be born should reduce their magical stats. Just wish it could have been a core feature.

Can you tell us which person is going to do the actual changes to unit UI so I can send he or she a Christmas card? [e digicons]:star:[/e] Also, have we forgotten that some cancer gives you psychic powers? FE is going to give us all Telepathy!

To me the AI is always like a younger brother that is five years my junior. I feel bad about being stronger and smarter, but I know he must be regularly beaten and demoralized before he starts to grow into something that can challenge me. I set my AIFOWcheat to 1...

That deal has sailed by on boats that were deleted from the game. Don't get me me wrong, I love frozen pizza, it's just bad timing.
