[quote who="DarkSide73" reply="35" id="2845442"]The modifications that have been made to this game are very intense and have greatly improved playability throughout, which also ups the fun factor. Yet all these dudes care about if they can give a skirt a sword and send her to be slaughtered with the rest of your worthless stock. Leave your women at home - my men will meet them soon enough.

[quote who="Wintersong" reply="27" id="2845300"] Stardock should change it to 0 points (or one day add someting that makes interesting to be egalitarian beyond "Oh, Women with a Stick!".[/quote] Yeah, either 0 or just get rid of it entirely and let you choose whether you want to make female troops in the design screen. I'm hard pressed to think of what they could do with it. When morale still existed they could have given egalitarian societies a higher morale bonus
[quote who="Mhantra" reply="10" id="2845179"] Quoting heyhellowhatsnew, reply 7Can we make female soldiers now? Or is it still sexist in the land of Elemental One culture has the "Egalitarian" trait, which allows you to have female soldiers.[/quote] Okay, I'd like an actual answer to this - why does it cost any points at all to have this trait? It is purely aesthetic, and offers absolutely no mechanical benefit.
[quote who="hfbrooklyn" reply="17" id="2841856"]I dont know you, OP, or the rest of the players, but the best advice I can give is be patient. This isn't another RTS like Supreme Commander or StarCraft where you have to rush everything. [/quote] Sir, I can't tell if you're being sarcastic or condescending. [quote who="hfbrooklyn" reply="17" id="2841856"]Just keep close to main base for a good many turns until it's got a big inf ring. At least then monsters will
[quote who="HallowedBMyName" reply="8" id="2841638"]As reply #7 says, a bit stronger is better than too weak. I would recommend you just lower your world difficulty a bit and see if that helps you.[/quote] Okay, I'm only playing on Medium, so that shouldn't really factor into it. Also, it's not that they're "a little bit stronger". I can take a mob or two in fights. My problem is with the sheer numbers. I eventually just get overwhelmed.
Hello, I've checked around and I seem to be the only one having a problem with this, but the game is completely unplayable for me due to the high numbers of wandering critters and bandits that now exist. I've started five games in the last hour, and all of them saw my first and only city destroyed by creatures within 20-30 turns. I even got knocked out of the game on turn 10 by a group of spiders (CR 28) that destroyed my city and the sovereign defending it. Again,
[quote who="Themysticeye" reply="9" id="2734018"] Quoting Wexmajor, reply 8I agree, either Egalitarian should add some other benefit or drop the point cost. Quoting KillzEmAllGod, reply 3 one point isn't much at all could just add it the ability to your faction in Xml if your cheap. Why are there apologists for every little thing? No, it's not being cheap. A purely visual/thematic effect should n
I looked in both the manual and the Faction creator, and as far as I can tell there's no extra benefit to the Egalitarian trait besides being able to design female troops (the manual doesn't even mention the word 'Egalitarian'). So if my wife (whom I bought this game for specifically because you can create female sovereigns and troops) wants to have an army of women, she has to pay an extra point. That's just bad form.
