I highly agree with this, although we might need five. Maybe one to do with nature and monsters?
If there is a flat amount, I really hope it'll be in python so a modder can change it for different conditions (techs, events, traits, etc) And Strawbdragon also brought up an important thing, although slightly less relevant. Can we make teleport cost mana equal to the number of units in the stack? So the sovereign can easily move himself and a few bodyguards around but it would be immensely difficult to move your entire army.
I see your fear, very similar to the Stack of Doom from civilization. Would be nice to have, like the logistics of GalCiv 2. Maybe there could also be a maintenance cost/strength reduction of units in huge stacks? Huge epic battles are nice, but there should be a use for smaller, more tactical armies.
This seems to be similar to these ideas: https://forums.elementalgame.com/forum/512 I like both of these ideas. Adds a lot of personality to cities.
Yes please! Otherwise you'll have thousands of complaints from people who haven't completely read the manual.
Gates could be very strategic. Gate location and number (why only one?) should really affect sieges, unit movement, and trade.
I really like this idea, should help make cities stand out individually I would like it if the achievement's difficulty greatly ranged from 'most magical', which will be very common and change a lot in one game, to some that are so difficult they only appear once every few games and really shine as a legendary city. Pretty much the beast philosophy applied here. Ideas for achievements (competitive or normal): surviving some great disaster, whether random event or magic
Just thought it might be easier to post the bugs I encountered all here. If separate posts are preferred, please tell me; I haven't had much of a chance to beta test previously. I'm running vista, advanced lighting off Graphics first: First, mysterious little ring of light to the south. On a beach, no special properties that I can see. Probably something I'm missing, but thought it best to report [URL=http://img267.imageshack.us/i/elemental1278077839.jpg/][IMG]
"eye candy", so to speak.
Do you have Galactic Civilizations, 1 or 2? Made by Stardock, it has a very similar idea, with "governers". I would like to see that here too.
I like it. Little micromanaging, but realitively powerful.
nevermind
agreed!
Well, with the custom unit maker, it would have to be against types of units or type of weapon, but good idea.
After claiming a couple of cities I remembered that roads were working and made all my cities connect. The result? A strange double road from my capital (I'm not even going to bother to try to spell it) to my second city. It works fine but looks really strange: http://www.screencast.com/users/popcornlord/folders/Default/media/37d66d40-7802-40fa-a847-54f589020eca Also, there's a statue of a soldier of the empire I conquered. Nothing happens when I go on it's squa
Here's a quick idea I thought would be good for tactical battles, when their implented: It seems like in every tbs game I've played with seperate tactical battles, the battlefield always takes from the defender's tile. Why? Why not include the attackers tile too, so the attacker can plan his advance on the enemy. And what about nearby units? What I'm suggesting is that during a battle, the battlefield is the defender's tile plus all of the surrounding tiles. This will make it feel mor
After playing for a while (70 or so turns), happily conquering the world, the screen randomly froze. After a few minutes I hit ctrl alt delete and retrieved the debug: http://pastebin.com/m1febf569 I happened at the end of a turn, nothing seemed to be different than normal, so I don't know what could be the cause. I'm hoping the answers in the debug. (there's a few errors at the end)
I think I heard somewhere tomorrow
Instead of charging players gold after a building is done, I think it would be alot more convienent for players to charge them before it's started. Two reasons for this: one, it's easier on a player with large projects underway, so they don't accedently go into negative without realizing it, and two, right now it's a newb trap. I remember in my first game building a good amount of buildings and then thinking to check my reserve. 1,000 or so, I'm good. Pretty soon I was well

Ditto. I can only build a town once, and have not been able to train troops or attack yet.
Having the same problem, even after updating through Nvidia. edit: I also tried disabling the intro through Elemental\data\default (not sure if I'm supposed too... [e digicons]:-"[/e] ) with no luck.
