City-centric warfare, City-spam, All-or-nothing warfare (tied to city warfare) The way I see it, people could be fighting rather continuously over certain areas of turf rather than necessarily try to attack the city (a lot harder

Heh ... well I personally prefer myself to have far more traits/abilities (combat based only) ... and give my opponents superior numbers and gold-economy. I can just imagine a Samurai Zen Master with Third Eye and Enlightenment buffs facing off against army after army :3

You get "biomass" from harvesting anything living -> trees, fertile land, scaths, horses, wild game, humans, fallen small, and weak, no ranged attacks or magic. successful melee attack implants multiple parasite larvae in the target.

yea, simply a Dark shadow (and time lock) on explored terrain outside your Line of Sight. The easiest way to do timelock would be to not show goody huts, for Cities to be in Shadow (only borders/walls seen), and for no units to be shown.

@ Annatar, yep ... I probably won't even look at changing the ways battles function for quite a while, and will probably choose some sort of middle ground. That being said, it is nice in this case to have far reaching goals that are hopefully eventually possible.

[quote who="Frogboy" reply="12" id="2671022"] Shards = The primary way a faction can increase the essence of their units. [/quote] Interesting ...

Aye ... and either only allow the construction of assasin (kit) in the founding city, or have stronger assasin(kit)s in the founding city and weaker/cheaper assasin(kit)s in cities that build new assasin guilds. Or, have no different between founding city and other cities, and have all assassin guilds be equal (instead of the first assassin guild to be special)

[quote who="Frogboy" reply="8" id="2680687"]yea, you'd need to summon a boat and then cast an e3nchantment on it that allows it to ignore blocked tiles and then it could fly. WE, however, won't be doing that. What you guys do on your machines though is none of our business. [/quote] Won't be doing what?? Won't enchant summoned ships with flying? Won't enable Blimp technology? Won't make utterly trapped and isolated sta

[quote who="Recnelis2" reply="12" id="2680003"]You put your currently super rare essence points into a caster, caster dies for one reason or another. You now have to spend the rest of the game only casting low level spells.... = Not Fun. Perhaps you may enjoy beating stuff with non magical/ casting units but i'm playing this game for the magic part. It is after all Elemental War of magic is it not? Now this of course is assuming that Essence is the rarity tha

[quote who="Recnelis2" reply="23" id="2680466"]That would be cool actually. Having the ability to siphon/leach the life essence out of a creature/object. There could be a whole race designed just for that purpose...harvesting essence.[/quote] They are called humans.

well ... I'd still personally like to see (not in release but maybe a mod) large battles where Each individual soldier is a separate object. Basically, while the unit is bought together, trains together, and moves together ... each soldier is a separate object with its own attack, defense, and HP. So even a giant force of 1000 peasants, separated into 10 units of 100, cannot attack ALL AT ONCE with all 100 peasants ... instead the peasants attack one at a time once they come w

Perhaps shouldn't need an Earth shard if the land is within your influence??

**alternative to lazy is that buildings cost *more* materials (and same amount of gold), and take an extra turn to build Meanwhile Extravagant could have all buildings more expensive gold-wise. (possible positive side-effect of Extravagant could be +1 prestige to Palace and Statues)

Hmm, well I think there is a "summon boat" spell ... but might that also require beach to work?

hmm, what did special editions of Civilization III and Civilization IV offer? When did Civ V first announce its special edition w/ book + figurines? Does Civ V special edition also have the Babylon civ?

I like the idea of Duels ... could be over various things, don't have to result in Death/ Civ transferral. On to "Duel for EVERYTHING" duels ... I think that upon Sov defeat/death his capital creates the "Loyalist" faction (for instance: Tarth Loyalist Faction) Each of the Defeated Sov's cities has 2(Charisma)% chance to join the Loyalist Faction, and each of his armies has a 3(charisma)% chance of joining the same faction. All other Cities and Armies go
