What about face dimensions and proportions? Can the features associated with the sovereign or unit design be modded?

Is there espionage? If not let's get that AI worked out..
The graphics need loads of work on the cut scenes, they look very dated. Probably not enough races, and the AI would be questionable. I have long awaited a good successor to Masters of Orion 2, my standards are high.
I have to side with detailed dungeon crawls.. For the RPG side of it, such a system would add great depth and 'fun' factor. Some of the most interesting missions in Star Craft, are those with no building, small force fighting across tactical maps, with rooms and intractable objects.
Would the same apply to Vista x64?
I think the prevailing process indicator system is leaning towards a slide show of art and lore screens while you wait. I had a thought on this and would like to suggest excerpts from the book associated with the game.

I should think that a close generalization should be possible, or lacking that, the goal of how long they would like to see it take in a worse case on single core. I do take your meaning though.
When in doubt, read the directions.. [e digicons]:star:[/e]
If I may ask, what is the expectation of load times in a worse case on single core?
I know very little of this side of development, I'll never be a code monkey. However I am often accused of asking the right questions. So why does all the data need to be front loaded? Are all 65k worth of hats available to the player from start to finish? Is there no distinction between hats likely to be used early game to those late game. If hats ( the most simple example to use for the discussion ) have different values and uses, can they not be loaded at the time of their use? Likewise, a
I do not support suspend, exactly. I would have to go with draws.. If you can not defeat your opponent in X turns the battle ends and you have to move onto his tile again to initiate new combat, at the power levels as they were at the end of the last combat. Depending on the movement values of the different armies/groups this could still allow for reinforcements and narrow escapes. Then in combat if facing a superior force you can deploy units in delaying tactics to give your main forces a ch
the question deserves its own thread, how does aging work for children and spouses, as sov's are immortal..
I have recently asked Keen & Graev to do Elemental some justice on their gaming blog. I encourage everyone to poke their favorite gaming blog site to do a work up on Elemental as soon as possible. If any are unfamiliar with these guys.. http://www.keenandgraev.com/
