[quote who="abcdefg90" reply="76" id="3259951"]The slim version of the PDF is still insanely slow on my iPad 3. I would definitely be interested in finding out more about this game. I appreciate the creation of the "slim" version. However, it still renders so slowly that it is just absolutely painful.[/quote] That's really weird, I tested it on an iPad in the office (a 2 I think) and it was super speedy :( it's going to be going online shortly in an even more accessible

where is your sovereign standing when the pioneer finishes? what else is happening?

we haven't been able to reproduce this in house... can you take a video of what's happening or something? http://www.fraps.com/ is a free utility you can use to capture game video (could upload to youtube or wherever). Or perhaps even more specific info about the situation? when are you moving your sovereign there? is it the sovereign alone? is something else going on at the same time?

Torchlight 2 is my personal game of the year so far, really appreciate the kind words tho :) maybe I would think FE was goty if I hadn't worked on it so long ;)

[quote who="OrionM42" reply="73" id="3258778"] Pewter Figurines of Procipinee ??? Yippee, skippee ! But, wait a minute, how on earth are you going to engineer those, so that you can make them available to us, via Digital Download ??? [/quote] <

[quote who="Rhadagast" reply="3" id="3258730"]lol at the lurker pic. wish they would bring them back.[/quote] they kind of are! I know I for one cant wait to use Swarm Hosts to decimate my enemies.

[quote who="Lord Reliant" reply="71" id="3258749"] Quoting Kestral2040, reply 70I'm glad you guys like it! I'm currently working on a couple more fun/old school surprises for you... hope you enjoy them as much as you do the manual Please tell me that one of them is a copy protection wheel. In order to launch the game, you'll need to turn the wheel to find the right code. Ahh... so much of my childhood was spent fumbling through copy protection wheels. I

it's not just like civ, however, if you build certain improvements in your cities you can get money or research bonuses when you aren't building anything. which will make it count as building something for the purposes of auto turn

[quote who="Frogboy" reply="1" id="3258674"]I'm still trying to finish classic Ironman! It's a tough thing for the reviewers right now because there are so SO many games out. And let's face it, FE is a difficult game to review. There's a lot to it. It takes a lot of time. But I'd rather wait for a proper review than have a rushed one. This is a 4X game, it's not going anywhere. [/quote] amen, I think it's a

[quote who="Tekkor" reply="3" id="3258598"]Well done and I am enjoying the game a ton. Ive been trying to get the word out as much as a small YT Channel guy can...by putting videos up and linking them on Steam forums and other places etc. If a ton of little guys like me help......well....every one counts. If you have a friend...let them know. Heck you can link them to my videos if you want ( http://www.youtube.com/user/TekkorGJC ) or to the great ones by Stardock and othe

I will try to reproduce this in house by repeating the steps you have laid out here, if i can we should be able to fix it... thanks

I'm glad you guys like it! I'm currently working on a couple more fun/old school surprises for you... hope you enjoy them as much as you do the manual

and here it is, we tried making a 'kindle' specific version but it did not come out well... this 'slim' version seems to look and function well on tablets (and slower computers). https://stardock.cachefly.net/FE_slim.pdf

awesome collection of links, should add some of the great quickplay/lets play videos people have done to it :) you guys are the best.

[quote who="Lord Xia" reply="51" id="3257426"]Who is "Cervo"? Doesn't ring a bell. I recognize all the other forum people thanked(and they deserve it), but that ones doesn't ring a bell. [/quote] Derek (or Brian?) did the thank you section so I couldn't tell ya... For all the people asking for a more responsive version, I'll see about getting a lower res 'lite' version up tomorrow along-side the normal one

can you post a screenshot of where exactly you are moving when it crashes? have never seen this before...

thanks for the report! this is known and on our list, just couldn't get to it before release :)

it's easier to get into and different in many ways, but not dumbed down... check out the manual and you can see how many layers the game has ;)

no can do, director's cut was deemed too risque for public consumption

[quote who="Sir Malcolm" reply="47" id="3257241"]I'm happy to see the "Letter from the Designer" and wish it were longer. I miss the golden age of computer gaming where the manual came with the game, was a minimum of 50 pages, and a third of that was design notes. Even Sid Meier is nerfed nowadays.[/quote] I wrote some longer notes but they had to fit on pages with a lot of info :) glad you like them tho!

[quote who="BoogieBac" reply="2" id="3257219"]Note that the Pause|Break key will pause the game. I highly suggest using it for some awesome spell effect screenshots [/quote] THEY ALL KNOW THAT CAUSE THEY READ THE MANUAL SCOTT ;) sorry, Scott needs to be yelled at sometimes

Manual has been updated, changes include: - Shadowbolt Spell added to Ceresa - Sovereigns with death apprentice adjusted to have curse instead of berserk - Fixed error in Magnar Warlock ability text - Fixed out of date information about Henchmen in Altar designer tip - Fixed some typos - Added some new background images can still get it via the same link

[quote who="seanw3" reply="10" id="3256295"]Lovely manual and I got an honorable mention! It felt more like a yearbook than a manual, remembering back through all the changes and developments over the past six months. The best part is the faction pages. Great job there.[/quote] thanks! I realllly wanted the faction pages to stand out and get people excited to play... I personally LOVE the variety of play the different faction provide players and feel it gets overshadowed sometimes.

speaking of... once we get the word from the top, the manual is ready for dissemination ;) for those eagerly awaiting a massive tome to read. .... and as I type this it's approved: https://forums.elementalgame.com/434518 enjoy!
