The variants you find in CoreShards.xml are hardcoded, as are the global shard power bonuses. There should be no problem adding "faux" shards as world resources though. A custom shard power wouldn't be able to boost spells directly, but there is a work-around if you are interested in a bit of tweaking.

Bridges wouldn't serve much of a point right now since a normal river tile just takes 2 movement to cross. In my Rivermod (part of Stormworld) the new rivers can't be crossed normally. For those rivers, having bridges to go across is one of the few ways to get to the other side. Of course that means that most rivers have a bridge somewhere, especially if they are actively blocking an important part of the map stamp. <img src="http://stormworld.wdfiles.com/local--files/rivers/r

Beta 3 has a lot of cross-path technology unlocks, doesn't it? Do you want more? Less? Structured differently? Going by the replies in this thread, it seems most (but not all) are interested in sieges and crafting in particular.

I played it before, but the lag and the unresponsiveness of the ships made it a no-deal for me. I like the idea but it isn't executed great, instead of feeling like space combat it feels like moving pieces on a board.

You can start with any of the most reputable medical journals. Although you will never find a "fundamentally unbiased site", those are the least biased (and the site you linked falls under the category of "most biased").

As an actual scientist I would never expose myself to such a biased source if I wanted to form my own opinion on a subject. You may not realize it, but the bias of the site actually disqualifies it as a source for material. If you want me to analyse the studies and come up with some conclusion, I can tell you others have done that before me and their conclusion is that homeopathy shows no results stronger than placebo. Some studies also compared the results to people taking medicines (real on

Oh my... is the multiplayer really designed without simultaneous turns? That's awful. Since the AI hasn't improved and the MP is a joke, I'd say wait for a sale if you're going to get this game. It is really fun to learn the game and explore the world, but without proper AI or MP...

I really like the new patch with heroes, it's a simplistic system to give you custom units that you can grow and equip according to your whim. The only thing I don't like is that you can randomly find heroes from monster lairs. It just seems unbalanced, in this one game I was running I had two heroes, then I found another 2 within 1 turn of each other, both from monster lairs. It completely turned the game around. Also, getting a bunch of healers when you're playing undead

A larger accuracy reduction for every hit is my solution. -4 accuracy worked in the old game when accuracy wasn't a rough percentage indicator. I would say minus 10 to 15 accuracy per hit now.

If you "freeze" at the loading screen, I suggest you wait several minutes - could be up to 10 minutes. At the start of elemental the game runs a sort of process where it collects all the data about the game (which is stored in xml in your install folder) and combines it into a zip file the game can use. Essentially it puts all the contents of the game into a packed archive. This can take several minutes but you only have to do it once. Another solution is to go to your
