Hi all, One of the aspects of these games that has bugged me from the start is that I often don't know where the various factions are. I will be greeted by the 3rd of 4th faction but I don't know where, on the map, first contact was made. By the end of the game I generally still have not uncovered the whereabouts of some of my enemies. Case in point last night Resoln continually declared war on me but they were so far away from me that there were at least two ot

Loving LH. My only complain is that while it is billed as a new game it feels more like an improvement on FE. It would have been nice to have some new characters I am sick of the usual suspects. Because visually it is the same it doesn't do justice to the massive improvements that have been accomplished already.

Looking forward to downloading. Absolutely no issues with using steam. Not sure why some individuals harbour such great resentment.

This sounds like a solid step forward.

Sword of Aragon, CIV 2, HOMM2, Alpha Centauri in no particular order. There are probably other better games but these are the ones that I remeber playing an aweful lot when life was still simple. i.e., No wife, kids and business :)

The steam hate is indeed very comical. It is the Luddites all over again. Don't understand, don't want to understand so I will bash and shriek until it goes away. Steam is very flexible and works very well. Also provides great access to discounted title. I don't see the problem that some people have but I am fine with that, I am certainly looking forward to more gaming goodness.

Thanks for the headsup - I am sitting here about to leave the country for 3 weeks - I thought I would grab latest update before going. Now I don't have to sit in anticipation and I can wait until I arrive at my destination to grab it.

I really hope it pays off for you all. I love this game and I want to see it do well.

Yes, I had also reported this - I just reloaded my game using 0.983 and this time only two factions declared war - rather than all 7 - much better now

Just reloaded using 0.983 - ,much better - still declaration of war - joined by one of his allies but the rest didn't follow suit - phew!

It has happened again. A neighbour, Resolon, declares war on me. He is the weakest faction. All other factions declare war on me - even though I am friendly with some of them. Why do none of them side with me? I really do not like this new behaviour I hope it gets toned down as for me this is a game breaker. There I am struggling to build an empire build relations and all of that gets undone in one turn.

Playing my first game using 0.982 - on normal difficulty I have met a three factions - all warmish relationship. All of a sudden I get a message "because you are war without friend we will have head on a spike" or words to that effects. In the next two turns every single nation has declared war on me including 4 that I hadn't even met yet. The only thing that I may have done is strayed into another opponents territory in order to complete a mi

Wicked update is available - just log in from work onto my home comp and do the update.

Ah, it is not just me then. I think that if you manually set a destination explore should toggle off.

Now onto my second game 0.982 and I have to say this game is coming up in leaps and bounds in terms of it being FUN Screw balance and UI issues and all the other picky things people are whining about - the game is really fun to play. The new items the better heroes (not just your sovereign) the monsters are more interesting in their behaviour. I can see that there are still a number of things to do but all in all I say this is good. I would like to vote very good

I must be playing quite differently. I am finding that my magic users, specifically fire shard users, have to save the day. The armies are useless, I have large armies with swords etc and they do pitiful amounts of damage - they don't appear to to do well against armoured opposition. Also, my heroes without magic, do a little bit more damage even after a few levels of experience. But basically my wizards trump everyone, blasting whole armies with fireball and pickin

I never noticed a setting for this so I am playing default game. I have found that a really good tactic is to declare war, do a bit of damage - e.g., conquer a few cities destroy a few armies and then ask them to surrender. I feel that if they still have a powerful army in the field then they should wait a bit longer.

Generally I love the feature where the turn won't end if a city is idle. However, in the later stages of the game there may be nothing I want to build or train. Now the fluidity of the game is stuffed as I have to continually click on the turn button. Would it be possible to set a city to "idle"?, i.e., get auto turn working even though some cities are not working on anything in their build cue

I have noticed a few times that I can walk into a previously unknown sovereigns territory without receiving the "welcome" message. e.g, I walk into Pariden's territory, a new faction that isn't in my diplomacy list. And I am not challenged, sometime it takes three turns before a response is triggered. Sorry I cannot be more clear as I have only noticed it a few times.

ok, sorry for over reacting. Title updated.

A crash occurs because of bugs in the software - its all semantics. No need to be pedantic I am just trying to help out.

Just a simple thing. I won by completing the Mastery - black gate, kill the dragon champion. Anyway, The dialog at the top pops up and shows "Win by completing the ..." i.e., the string is too long for the dialog box.

I went to the area of the black gate. I am supposed to do something to open it - but what? I was never shown where to go and clicking on the icon on the left of the screen doesn't revel any information. The quests are confusing and frustrating.

I had some random event occur. It happened unexpectedly as I was clicking on a object. I heard music briefly screen flicker and it was gone. I had no idea what I had missed out on. When it begins the users should not be able to click it away for the first second or so to prevent accidental clicks to make it disappear.

I discovered this bug by accident but I have replicated 3x now Click on a city click build select demolish click on a building say "no" I don't want to demolish Now hold down shift and roll mouse wheel - crash --- You may ask what was I doing? Well I didn't realise I had demolish selected and I was trying work out how to rotate a building.
