Stardock will be closed for the week starting on Monday, June 29th and we will be returning on Monday, July 6th. We will be monitoring support tickets and forums during this time but expect delays in responses during this time.
Some more new stuff in 1.09n beta, from the container 1 (makes unit ignore the "additional training cost" incurred from itemtype with the tag 3 ) 4 (adds training time to a unit, default is 3 so 3+4=7) 0.0000 (overrides wage-co
After the 1.1 post detailing the new population changes, I commented that you guys seriously needed to look over the "royalty" history available for sovereigns. Having an ability that increased all prestige in all your cities by 100% (aka doubling it) is a serious balance issue. If it was overpowered before 1.09n, it's even more overpowered now. A dev replied and said that it would be changed. In 1.09n beta this history has not changed. Please do not forget.
This would also "force" the player to differentiate his spell-casting, and not just use the "most useful spell available".
I finished the drota faction and I was going to do a custom "orcs and goblins" faction, where half were orcs and half were goblins (with some fun differences between them, too). However... my plans were completely foiled when I realized the AI would only ever use one type anyway. Edit: I'll make a pure goblin faction in the expandedfactions mod.
Request Please make it so that the AI actually make use of the Egalitarian bonus ability. The Egalitarian bonus ability makes it so that you can recruit both female and male units. This is a simple way to make the units more diverse. For example, I could use different models for male or female units. However, the AI will (in 109n beta) only ever produce male units. Also, please help me find a way where the AI does not always produce pioneers. Apparently, there is a hardcoded u

It took me 30 minutes, start to finish, with my fresh custom computer, installing win 7 64bit. No choices didn't make sense, I didn't have to look up anything. No drivers were required to make something function. In fact, the only driver I needed to install was the graphics driver (well, and direct X drivers along with the first game). In my opinion, it's one of the strong selling points of the OS.
Eh? I haven't seen a single post like what you are describing, OP. Can you show me two posts that sound anything like what you're saying?
Yeah, there's absolutely something off here. I see that late-game weapons got their attack values tuned up a LOT. However, early game there's something off about weapon damage vs defense values available to the player.
I'm also getting nothing, tried with 10 charisma and 15 charisma. Edit: Actually, that was a sovereign, not a champion.
Oh, I thought you meant this topic as a sort of "what's new for modding". If you're looking for a playable game, there's no point in updating to beta. The AI is utterly incapable of playing with the new rules. They've made two large steps in the right direction. The game has improved significantly.

It's because it's such a subtle nuance it's practically a bug. Right now, in the beta, it means your city must be close enough to the shard to actually touch it.

No, connect meaning the city walls envelop the improvement.
Also an unrelated bug with reference to this post https://forums.elementalgame.com/400503 the tag E_Greater_Fire_Shrine does NOT work when an improvement is outside city walls. The upgrade is not checked for buildings just "connected" to a city, it requires that the building is inside city walls to be checked.
For the record, the shrine will upgrade to its "greater" status when inside the city walls only when 1) the city levels up or 2) you complete research of a technology that unlocks a new improvement I added bug report to https://forums.elementalgame.com/400548 (2nd post)
Hey, I just wanted to let you guys know about an issue that people are going to ask about. You're using these tags 1 E_Earth_Shrine E_Air_Shrine E_Fire_Shrine <b
I've noticed a few small differences. First, the capital city / every other city is now using different cityhub internalnames. Those tags have been there all the time, but weren't used or functional up until now. Secondly, obviously, accuracy, dodge and running population cost of buildings is in. Lots of new spell tags, particularly interesting is the tag you can add to make a unit always stay in a city. Mounted units for empire got moved into their own tech. That is a
It should be automatic when you get the tech. The tooltip for the shrine may not change instantly, and the tooltip for mana income will not change until you press end turn.
It's been in there from the start on big maps.
- standard shard improvements, in their hiergamemmon entry and tooltips, say they provide essence bonus - quest for a compass says it gives sight when completed, and then awards a compass you have to consume - it is not clear the compass must be consumed - notable location that rewards a mana tablet - why not give the user mana instantly? Mana is global, after all. - the health of randomly generated units (clicking "new" when in unit design window) differs from that of the basi
