AXidenTAL, you should check out the new forum mod page for Elemental. It has at least one mod that will be developed with lots dragons. When this game ships there also might be alot more options available than are currently available in the current beta. Really this is just a building the game phase, getting some basic gameplay mechanics working and getting it stable enough that the developers and testers can further analyze the gameplay. For being a work in

Yea, tour86rocker, pretty sure I got a glitch at some point in Magic Tech cause it bumped me multiple times in a row. I went somewhere from turn 40-60 to jumping to turn 1000+ in just a couple mins. Most of the techs were taking from 70-120 turns to complete after levels 15-20. I didn't actually make any regiments. Think it was just placeholder tech like most of them were. I just wanted to see how far I could go up the tree. I didn't move my Sov

I'm not sure what games I was playing then, maybe it was those SSI games which were pretty fun for the most part. I had so much fun playing the original Pool of Radiance. Actually completed game, which is rare. "Then again....I'm old [e digicons]:P[/e] " Then you will probably be fun to play against in multiplayer beta 2; if your testing that feature? Anyways, age doesn't mean much online. By the way, for all who want

[quote who="BoogieBac" reply="2" id="2589590"] How long are the turns supposed to represent?We don't know, to be quite honest Like Myles said, we're really trying to make the game fun in its own right. The moment we start trying to conform to a metric like "a turn is a day", we'd get some aspects of the game that feel too fast, while other aspects (the dynasty system, in particular) woud drag into the realm of uselessness. We're hopin

Can you please put Kyogre12's List of Mods under pinned items[e digicons]:grin:[/e] . And thank you .

Yea, just started testing today. So far I have been able to get to turn250-300 then crash. I won't start submitting bugs for couple days as I want to learn current mechanics first. Every game I have played has crashed. Some crashed after the first 20-30 turns. I have won one fight with spider leader, and died every other time. I am mostly using the first premade character but I have created several games where I used the customize feature for the Sove

I like the version that would let you control Raistlin, Tasslehoff, Caramoon, etc as heros that you could use in battles and also do quests with. What classes will you make? Mage, Fighter, Priest, Thief? Will you have classes or maybe just skills? Maybe there is\was a neutral god or goddess in campaign with attendant Soverigns, Heros, etc.?

Just enjoying the feedback and the commitment from you Stardock, and the other people testing Elemental. I have really had a great time reading all the informal comments and updates that Frogboy, BoogieBac, etc., are making here. Frogboy, I briefly worked for a software co. We had 2 walls in our support area. One wall had a bunch of negative problems, comments, etc, directed towards the company or employee's of the company.&nbs

If cloud computing is successful Raven X, then it will be good for our planet in general. Less reliance on tangible goods means our dumps/recycle centers should be better off. My only "good" argument for cloud gaming is reduction in overall waste materials. Maybe..I also want to see our general public education system take to the cloud. We could have our most enjoyable instructors record and place their classes online from beginning english all the way up t

Enjoying the artwork. I'm with Aractain as far as not enjoying some of the names. Just a sound and feel thing. Of the Men, only Tarth feels right. However, I think that is a minor annoyance if you can replace them in a world editor.

Races--because they really matter if you want an epic game Don't know if you saw this thread yet, just thought you might like to see it. Also the thread, Elemental for dummies has a good breakdown of what races/factions are currently in game. Now if you've already looked at those, then you are

Happy belated birthday Raven X! I would finish the DA like ed is recommending, next Total War, Just Cause 2 and last Distant Worlds. This doesn't mean the order of best game cause I don't know that, just the order I would play em'.

When using a male soveriegn I would like to marry an "elf" looking woman with Silver Dragon blood who can transform and use the powers of. Their heirs would have a possibility of receiving the same blood and powers. Alternately, I would have a Niad who had powers over a river or stream in area. The heirs could also receive some derivate powers. When using a female soveriegn I would have champion from my kingdom from a tournament.

Thanks Istari. Yea definitely hidden from enemy view with chances for detection/disarm in some cases. I was thinking somesort of spot placement before battles would also make the battles a little more exciting. The traps could have major or minor battle impacts.

Thanks for the feedback everyone. Single player is the general consensus and focus. Hotseat,co-op, Local LAN, online multiplayer are all nice features if a game can afford them from the start and doesn't detract from the single player game. Also lamdaman mentioned 'Play by e-mail' for multiplayer/single-player(added) for those who have busy schedules. Thank you Frogboy, for that nugget.[e digicons]:D[/e] Tormy and Campaigner, I would

I found a couple of Lord of the Rings fan made movies. I hadn't seen or heard of them before. Thought they were well made. Born of Hope (2009) and The Hunt for Gollum (2009). Yea I'm usually last to know about anything. If you haven't seen these yet, they are worth looking at if your a Lord of the Rings fan. Found these at freemoviescinema.com

I agree, they should have light melee weapon aside from their ranged weapon.

Very nice. Just curious as to how many beta testers there are out there anyway? [e digicons]*_*[/e] Also thank you for your curteous and quick responces. I also can't wait to try playing you guys in multiplayer test!

My impression is we will be able to develop our own tactics and unit control. Some people are likely to form large but mainly standard type units and abilities and others will end up specializing in more unique and expensive units that will have far fewer numbers. I don't know the mechanic for achieving the formations. Maybe there are some template formations available? Hopefully we will be able to tinker with the formations. I would like to take a templat

My idea is that we should have some options to place traps on the battlefield(field prep where you might have line of pointed stakes placed close together and disguised at a bottom of a pit) or some flammable liquid as in Braveheart. I think there should be both mechanical and magical traps. I think very few battles are truly of the ambush variety. Most battles the opposing armies know who they are fighting and roughly where and when. They have time to

My first character made it to 6th level as an Elven thief. Don't remember his name it was so long ago. He died fighting some hellhounds inside a semi-active volcano. Another character made it up 12th level as a Druid. He had just come from an expedition in which the group he was with had been annhilated. Exhausted he camped out under some trees in the wilds; when a hungry Giant weasel came and killed the Druid who had next to nothing left from exh

Thanks PJ an Ron. Slightly red in face, heeh. Also ty for the breakdown tigerlady, Ron Lugge and jpmurph1.

Saw that facepalm article. Bad corporate decision making I hope. I hope people don't buy this but I'm afraid many will.

Just wanted for people to see this game. It is the longest running game online that I've played. It helps to have a fast connect. Recommend reading the FAQ first. There will be some config. issues with many users. This game needs to be run by itself and not have any background filesharing programs running. If you are patient enough to learn how to get the game loaded and playing you will have a great time. The ships are all fun to learn an
