Yes, that worked. Thanks.

[quote quoting="post"] This is not a new request by far, but this has yet to make it into a build. Let me see city details and compare to other cities when making city specialization choices. This has been asked for on each build I can remember. Especially on larger games I don't have every city name memorized and don't necessarily remember what I was moving towards for a specialization. I know this has been asked for over and over again, would be nice to see it happen. <br

And yes, the Capriccio Italien is extremely bombastic.

There was talk of this earlier today, and now it's here.

The govern screen shows my three cities as all taking 4,294,967,295 seasons to grow. That's a bit on the long side. The actual figures from the main screen are accurate, and considerably shorter.

[quote who="larienna" reply="65" id="3133412"]in fact there is 2 MOM patch. One of the simple patch fix AI and prevent the computer to cheat. While the other one change the powers of all spells and abilities. I prefer the first patch.[/quote] I'm not sure which patch you mean as the "first." There are indeed two incompatible user-made patches: Master of Magic 2. To quote one user: "That's a fan-made patch that re-balanced the u

[quote who="seanw3" reply="6" id="3133519"]I think Pariden is the only one that gets those books. The benefit is that every hero you hire will have all the elements. That is a huge power. You should try getting all the hero techs right away and doing quests to get lots of gildar. You can buy a level 5 hero and make him a right nasty mage. Having every element means you have access to many more spells than other factions. But it does seem like a good idea to make a custom Sov and just use the

[quote who="Kongdej" reply="3" id="3133464"] Quoting Glazunov1, reply 2Certainly. I'm referring to the Sorcery tech that opens access to a series of tomes. My apologies if I wasn't clear about this. Where I wrote "books," above, read "tomes." Sorry if I was snappy, tried to make as nice a note as possible, took some time to look: http://imageshack.us/f/18/screenshothmp.png/ [/

Very articulate, to the point. Nicely done. :) Also reminded me that Bach was actually born in Gilden.

[quote who="Kongdej" reply="1" id="3133388"]Books? Are you talking about Principee's special ability to craft magical books of power to sell to her champions, after a certain tech has been gained?.

[quote]Tactician (Army gets + 1 initiative) is too weak and should be "+ 2 initiative"[/quote] Agreed. Large weapons with strong negatives to initiative are available fairly quickly in the game to champions, as are opponents you'll need to use them on simply to move through territory that would otherwise by completely blocked; and spell availability ramps up more slowly. So you're suddenly left with heroes who are very slow, and lack hit points to su

I've used diplomacy both by clicking the AI player in the upper right of the main screen, and by right-clicking on an AI unit. Had no crashes with this, either in .86 or .90, though my game's crashed twice on unit movement in 126 turns, thus far. I'm not writing this to contradict anybody, but to point out that the bug appears not to be general.

[quote who="Edwin99" reply="7" id="3133343"]Good news, about the AI expanding more aggressively.[/quote] I'm hoping it'll expand aggressively but sensibly. And I don't mean that it'll establish outposts as chokepoints to keep you out of a large swath of territory in which it hopes to grow. Because "scouts to mountain passes-->pioneers put up chokepoints-->ruler keeps you out" is very gamey, in my opinion. At least

No file, yet, but the tea leaves suggest it's coming.

[quote who="scifi1950" reply="4" id="3132929"]Strange - I played for about an hour with no problems of any kind. Make sure you guys send in your crash logs so they can see whats up.[/quote] I've had two crashes in 126 turns, which is actually less than half my former averaged rate with 0.86.

I'm a fairly latecomer to the beta, so my vagueness about Sorcery really isn't because senescent. That's just the way I normally act. ;) Yes, I know it's a Magic technology. I know it gives you elemental books you can (without another tech) sell to other leaders. But why does research suddenly give you a bunch of a magical books at one time?

[quote who="mastroego" reply="68" id="3133049"]One thing I didn't manage to understand from the changelog: does magic work as it did before? I mean how heroes learn spells and all? [/quote] You mean, they get spells by raising levels? If so, then yes. I'm glad they bypassed the WoM method, which comes straight from Master of Magic. Mind, I liked it in MoM, but there it was the only thing you researched. In WoM, it seemed overkill.</

CK2 is as much about vassal and dynastic management as it is about conquest. You need to know how to manage the shifting allegiances of those who serve you, the laws governing succession, and the traits that personalize so many people in and out of your realm. It's the only way to expand successfully. Love the game, personally. It's quirky, but addicting, and has great replayability.

[quote who="seanw3" reply="28" id="3132843"]This person died a year ago...[/quote] My condolences. Is there somewhere we can send our notices of consolation?

I can search within the game on a huge range of subjects, including all available spells--but there's no listing of what spell book a given spell belongs to, and no entries for each spell book, complete with all the spells listed in it. Would seem to be a natural, so you can find at once what spells will be available on the next level of a given element if a champion or sovereign chooses to take that as a reward upon leveling.
