[quote quoting="post"]How about taking away the wings and calling them dinosaurs? [/quote] A dragon without wings is a Worm (or Wyrm if you'd like). The wings on the elemental dragons are ornamental. Like the T-Rexes too short arms.

[quote who="elmuneco235" reply="35" id="3394671"] Wow, never imagined that this would be the thread for my first post... (warning: I did link to TV Tropes, which may be a bit of a faux pas, but the only danger there is to your productivity) I don't particularly mind the idea of "bunny slippers" - among other things they're a shout out to "No One Lives Forever", one of the greatest FPS of all time - but yeah, I could do without them. The games tha

What are these modifiers you speak of that alter the amount a particular battle is worth XP wise? Seems bogus to me. A dragon should be worth 100 xp whether you are facing him with 100 or 1 guys. If it's 100 guys then split the 100xp amongst them. If it's one guy then that guy gets 100. If you want to split xp between heroes and regular grunts then hero should get 50 xp and the other 50% should be split amongst regular troops.

[quote who="Solam" reply="5" id="3394356"] I think of it has something to adapt to. Like I said in another thread my life pursuit will be to kill any Hero wearing it. It's out of principal. If I have an alliance with that avatar I will break it just to make a point. [/quote] You are going to make a point to an AI? I don't think they'll notice mate.

Are Summons worth it? Are 5 swords better than 4 swords? Do ducks duck and bees be? If you battle a guy and it looks like he has 3 troops but is able to bring in a 4th that's a bait and switch on you and you have to adjust when you realize you are overmatched. A summon can significantly alter the course of a battle and make a close contest into no contest. Even if you forced summons to occur in the first turn instead of working the calculations to

[quote who="Carewolf" reply="58" id="3384513"] Quoting Ellestar, reply 56 Also, Master of Magic is one of the unique games that was never been beaten by successors. Take any classics: Civ 1? Civ 4 is better. Elite? Ultima? Dune II? Wolfenstein 3D? You can name a lot of better successors. Even for Star Control II, Space Rangers are arguably better. Ahh, now you are stretching it. There has never been proper replacement for the Ultima games in RPG, and neither has there be

[quote who="Darxim" reply="3" id="3394253"] They don't actually pull you into their square. Instead, if your army had a destination set, they automatically move towards it after being attacked. I consider this to be a bug. If you don't leave any armies with destinations at the end of your turn, you won't see this happen.[/quote] I almost always end up with destinations at the end of my turn. It's too much micromanagement to
