man, a good improve music score! I've only seen a few that have pulled that off, but when it does, its awesome. Well, perhaps not entirely improve, but defined sets of music strung together to seem improve (I'm not sure how a TBS game could be entirely improve, but if somebody else does that would be amazing) I've seen quite a few games that have clever transitions between music based on what is happening. that works very well.

I really appriciate it Mumblefratz (yeah, and btw, I see both 50 and 100 in the elemental site all the time. In fact right now its telling me the limit is 100 and I have 53 save messages, but at the time of the original post I had like 56 saved out of a maximum of 50... on the same computer, same OS, same SD site (elemental). Only difference is I deleted a few out of fear of not recieving more.

1. I care about multiplayer because for so long I said "if only master of magic was remade with multiplayer. You wouldn't even need to better the graphics" and as a result, I'd be a hypocrit if I didn't 100% back the multiplayer aspects of this game. 2. I like the options. Play by e-mail, lan, and hotseat the most, since I perfer to play with people I know over random creepos on the net (I'm king creepo, so it sets a high expect

I personally really like the music of Master of Magic. Most of it is pretty relaxing and just flows well with the feeling of the game. However, it does suffer from (if you can call it suffering) is all midi music. Modern games can have so much more. Civilizations IV, had amazing title screen music (the music to the sight of the globe, not any of the expansions) and Heroes of Might and Magic 5 had great castle music (specifically th

I think you need to better define 'game' and 'made', probebly 'best' as well. I don't think "impossible" is the correct term to describe answering the question as stands, I think "idiotic" is more realistic. I mean no offence, but that is such an opinionated question, that I do not think it should ever be asked by anybody. And anybody who would straight up answer it without the disclaimer of "I think" is probebly somebody who gives their own opinion more

I just like good quotes in general. They don't even have to be real. Black and white had some good loading screen quotes, thought they were quotes from the regular dialogue. I'd be more than happy to help compile a list of quotes that could be used.

Depending on how limited building growth is I'd rather not be limited to only 4 buildings per tile, though I think its reasonable to have a building per tile conversion rate (its just 4 per is a little crazy low) It makes me wonder how that is going to work out for defending a town if that is what it amounts to be, like because 1 'killer stack' couldn't protect your town on all sides. That is realistic possibly, but it seems a little tedious. <

I mean while waiting for the movie and shortly there after. Normally (especially at a midnight release) there is a hefty amount of waiting for the movie to start involved. Also, there is usually interaction during a movie that is non-verbal and does not take away from watching the movie (this is especially true when I'm seeing a movie with a lovely person)

I'm going. We've been having a lot of good comic book to movies lately, and watchmen is a particularly good one. This movie gets the 'I'll go see it even if nobody is coming with me' mark (often I do not feel the $10 for a ticket to see a 2 hour movie once is worth it without some sort of social bonding included.)

Well, Gal Civ 2 had trade routes, and the people in the corners seemed to benifit most by having the 'longest trade routes' with other groups. So it seems best not to be in the middle by any account. You would think that the person in the middle would be best, since it would be a trading hub, but if its like Gal Civ 2, then that may not be true. The only way I can see 'the middle guy' benifiting from trading realistically, is if there is a 'trade' tech or something

This is likely addressed somewhere, but I couldn't find it from the elemental or demigod forums. Just what is the private message limit? Most of the time it says 100, but randomly (like today) it drops to 50. I'm a pack-rat e-mail holder, where I don't like to delete them if I can help it. So if the maximum is 50, I'll likely stick to about 40, but if the limit is 100 I'd stick to about 70-80. I like to have things for reference (saved my butt

for the record, I'd mug one of the companions. The time lord might pull his screwdriver on me or do something crazy like shoot me with a shrink ray or something, but the companions are usually wimps who get themselves stuck in dumb situations (perfect for muging) Now, I don't mind that the Disc is the same, but if you fork over that high price game, at least give a full color manual for me to read with my AAA game (and smell of a 'new video game manual' It almost make
