I dislike your date format :) month/day/year i will never understand. Patch however I like.

While i feel Civ 5 was a step backwards I am still am very happy with this addition to the stardock team. If you ask me I suspect the simplification of civ was really due to pressure from the top, it seems to be the current trend with the larger gaming companies... just look at mass effect 2.

Welcome Dave. Excited to see what you will bring to this game over the next two years.

I really like the spell. Does casting it in an enemy territory count as an act of war I wonder.

Hmm you can tell your getting old when you get more excited over a potential forum announcement than you did on christmas eve. Ergh... Frogboy is like my new Santa.

[quote who="alaknebs" reply="1" id="2851820"]if there's no tile limit... doesn't that mean you can cover a whole map with just 1 city?[/quote] no as pointed out in the OP population would then become your limit to how big your cities can grow and this caps at 750. I feel that the building limit could be removed and population requirements on buildings should stay the same except for the miltary based buildings, Then perhaps we would start reaching the pop cap plus people would have to

I love the idea, I guess the only issue I can find with this is that we can currently raise and lower the land so in a sense for certain resources city placement wouldn't matter too much as you could just alter the land to get the resources you want... Of course if they increased the amount of mana these spells cost then it could all still work.

It really is great mod, I am suprised that a starting level 0 spell wasn't included in the main game.

Also if you incresed the amounts 5/10/15/20 or perhaps even higher it would then use up more population. I think building armys needs to put more pressure on our population cap.

So far I have to say everything works perfectly. It allows me to be a caster right from the off and it isn't over powered. The staff is just a case of casting the spell to get the weapon with no mana maintainance which is nice and simple.

Downloading now. Will let you know how i get on.

So I was reading a few threads on the forum regarding elementals world and the structure of the tech trees and a question popped into my head that I thought was rather interesting. The question was as follows. Without useing the current Tech Trees, is the World of Elemental an interesting place to play in and explore? which lead me after some pondering to the following question. <st

I think the fact they have brought kael on board shows that Stardock realises that the game needed someone to help give the game a bit of direction and focus going forward. I have no concerns about stardocks ability to make their own choices on whats best for the game going forward.

[quote who="ebelser" reply="32" id="2847852"]I'm just curious, why all the rabid defenders assume that anyone posting with problems hasn't already done the things they suggest? It's not like this is day 1 here; My drivers are up to date, I have a decent system and yes I have submitted reports over the months since launch...and the game has *never* been stable for me or many others. Is it playable? Barely, if I set autosave to 2-3 turns and just accept that I am going to have CTDs a

Fair enough I can see the logic in that, Perhaps then pick a few of your favourite weapons and give them a small chance of spawning on some of the more powerfull monsters that only appear later in the tree, that way people would still have to invest in the adventure tree in order to get them. or perhaps leave weapons to the goodie huts and then if you make a randomiser for armor or rings etc you could add some of those to the high level monsters.

I really don't get peoples self entitlement. Yes the game isn't perfect and there are still some stability issues but the game really has come along way in the last few months. If the game is a failure in your eyes then fine chalk it up to experience and quietly move on with your life or do what most of us here are doing and buy into to this game for long haul. That means leaveing constructive critisism and ideas for stardock not self entitled rants. Rightly or wrongly you have spent

We just need more choices in equipment so we can make our units feel different and specialized. So robes and staffs that increase intelligence and magic res. Armor that increase aim and agility for ranged units, equipment and bits and bobs that add special abilities. Currently as has already been stated it just feels that every unit is some slight variation on dude with armor and a weapon. The unit creation is great don't get me wrong and is already alot better than alot of other games, but l

[quote who="Heavenfall" reply="3" id="2847457"]I just had a chat with Kenata and we will be working together to put combat abilities on these weapons, so they won't just be a bunch of unitstats anymore. Stay tuned for 2.0 in a couple of days. We will also be expanding the range of weapons to include more models.[/quote] :) You and Kenata are really bringing this game alive for me. I can't wait to see what come of 2.0! Edit: quick thought, currently you have placed t

Sweet cheers man. Downloaded and I will let you know how I get on in my next game.

[quote who="Wintersong" reply="77" id="2846822"]Dear Stardock, Due to living in Europe, the different time zones and having a normal job for those two other points, I still haven't been able to download Elemental 1.1 and play it. Please, send brownies. Kind regards. -Whinysong PD If brownies are not possible, cookies will do. PPD Elemental for my mobile will do too![/quote] Yeh living in europe sucks. While I am bored a

The best women to mary is that red haired assasin she kicks arse.

I know this is something the devs are well aware of. In the time being I would advise you check out both the updated weapons mod and also the adventure pack in the mods forum as they both add more abilities to the game.

Yes, yes and yes... Lairs with their own ZOC, thats bloody brilliant. Then we would get the awesome situation where resources fall inside the lairs ZOC and you have the tough choice as to if go after the resource and clear out the den or if you just leave the monsters alone. [e digicons]k1[/e] Also love your idea that monsters would turn the land to what suits them. I hope Kael or Frogboy reads your post.

[quote who="Heavenfall" reply="17" id="2846703"]Some will be coloured according to what is "obvious". If there are overlapping colours one will be chosen (prefix). Edit: Not all weapons are colourable.[/quote] Excellent, I look forward to seeing what is generated for your first pack.
