This happens to my friends and I as well, every time we play. Usually on the 2nd or 3rd turn too. We can't play multiplayer at all.

Oh almost forgot: On my system there is a strange problem where the unit walking animations seem to jerk and don't progress smoothly. It's very conspicuous and only happens in multiplayer.

Will custom sovereigns and custom factions be added into multiplayer at some point? The customization features are such an integral part of this game, it's really a shame if they were to be left out of multiplayer!

[quote]The root of Ebonics is low English over in Europe. So, do they really sound black, or do they actually sound like 16th Century Hillbilly. I wouldn't rent to anyone that sounded black either. If you sound black it means you sound like something other than a well spoken, properly educated individual. Want people to rent to you? Learn English and stop talking like a hillbilly. Just because there are so few hillbillies left that the stereotype for the dialect has become black people

So let them have it. Let them have their way and let them think that they've won. They're really so desperate to "win" on the internet because all of their feelings of self worth are tied up in their internet persona's. To me that indicates someone with no real life and

Lol, virtually everyone on this thread is insulting and slandering Mumbles yet no one ever manages to counter his arguments. It's OK to be jealous of someone's intellect, guys... but seriously, the resort to immature and meaningless slander just makes me think you guys are probably non-functioning sociopaths in real life. Absolutely pathetic.

Aw that's a shame. Maybe they could include an option for playing with trusted opponents (ie. friends)? Is this something that could be modded into multiplayer perhaps? I'm guessing that custom sovereigns aren't allowed either? That also saddens me :( There's gotta be a way to include these in custom games...

Apparently some people can't read. The OP created this thread to show his support for Stardock, but I guess the trolls can't resist slobbering over every thread about how much they're disappointed Elemental didn't turn out to be an exact copy of MoM :P Anyway, I think Elemental is incredible. Gorgeous graphics, great music, and tactical combat is fun. I love the unit design -- perhaps my favorite feature of the game. The campaign is a great easing-into of the E

[quote who="-RAISTLIN-" reply="59" id="2711774"]But I spose there’s been a drastic shift in expenditure in the last 6 years right? ROFL. The situation is more or less constant, with just the margins changing. The budget surplus was eaten through by stimulus spending for the GFC (and the corresponding fall in tax revenue), not through an explosion in healthcare costs or medicare. Australia BEGAN the 90s in the red (or really, the 70s), and the debt was paid off somewhere around the early
