language usage issues NPC here refers to hired "champions" not to enemy sovereigns.
[quote who="Gyb" reply="38" id="2775968"] Maybe the inability to increase their movement is the balance to their power? So the choice is trained units I can increase movement on but don't have specials they can cast and they cost wages, or summons that are cool and have specials and have no upkeep but are slow? Because honestly up to this point I haven't bothered much with mundane troops, just swarms of elementals. [/quote] really? imps are overpow
i am going to go ahead and say "search the forums before asking questions"... not for nothing. this has been raised and answered multiple times since yesterday's patch.
[quote who="vxvoodoo" reply="32" id="2775868"]2. Organized talent is being removed Good riddance. Now instead of upgrading just the sov's speed, you have the strategic choice of investing in speed upgrades for the individual units. [/quote] yeah. because there are soooo many options to increase the movespeed of summoned creatures and other non-human units. let me just focus on casting +1 move on ALL units of that sort so that my a
[quote who="MacDante" reply="2" id="2775810"]Wrong! Normally any city have prestige 1, with this ability on start any City have prestige 2. [/quote] so...if the SOVEREIGN starts with this ability, it works? because if you pick up an NPC (like the OP said) it does not.
yo mamas breath is overpowered! [e digicons]:andrew:[/e] sorry. couldnt help myself.
[quote who="cpl_rk" reply="39" id="2775784"]Is this supposed to be a sarcastic thread? There is absolutely no difference in item shop costs with version 1.08. Ceder longbow is still 152 gilder, same as it was before .. btw so is the price of everything else too. The only changes I've seen so far are 75% reduction in gold & experience from combat and a flat 1mp cost across terrain types (basically units go a bit faster through woods now).

he mentioned in his post that he started a new game.... soooooo the next question is: are you using any mods? old magic mods will cause this problem (shard values were changed). turn them off and start over. if you are still having problems....
[quote who="agio" reply="36" id="2775733"]Except a video game is not a car. [/quote] [e digicons]8(|[/e] that is why i used the word "metaphor"
that is one of many hero abilities that have never worked.
[quote who="Sythion" reply="13" id="2775697"] Sigh, no need to continue this route. Here's the point I was trying to make: OP thinks magic system is too weak. He is wrong. The two possibilities are he is either not telling the truth, or he is experiencing a problem that is making the magic not work on his system. Either way, he is incorrect. [/quote] in reality, what he thinks is that there is that his magic misses 100% of the time (did i ment
[quote who="agio" reply="34" id="2775679"] Because there's a problem with the 3rd patch of a game which has been out for less than a month... forcing you to wait 1 week until the 4th patch? [/quote] ...fanboy ...must...not...be...rude... ok. here is the problem with your logic. say i bought a car one month ago, i drive it home and it starts to show a TON of problems. the dealer a
[quote who="Sythion" reply="11" id="2775681"] ? That's why I said "you're lying or something weird is going on." [/quote] yeah? it was the "you're lying" part that bothered me.
[quote who="kryo" reply="3" id="2775557"] i said something that (even i realized) was incredibly over the top rude. It was probably cached for a bit or they opened the thread before you edited it. In the future though, perhaps just don't post rude things, eh? [/quote] but that would require some sort of internal impulse control... [e digicons]X([/e]
[quote who="Sythion" reply="14" id="2775669"] We do have the ability to build roads, and the current game is "only need one stack and teleport aorund and win everything." [/quote] no...no we really don't. we have the ability to connect cities with slow moving caravans as long as they are not too far away or do not follow a complex route. we do not have the ability to build roads to where WE want them to go. (shortcuts anyone?
[quote who="Sythion" reply="9" id="2775667"] You're lying or something weird is going on. [/quote] i flamed the last person that called someone a liar for reporting a bug that they themselves are not experiencing. so i am not going to flame you. BUT: i will remind everyone that stardock's little engine has different results with different hardware configurations. just because it is not happening with your setup, does not mean it is not happening
[quote who="Sythion" reply="10" id="2775646"] Quoting Heavenfall, reply 2 So long, Organized! Ye be not missed. Now just get rid of teleport and we'll have to actually think to play the game! [/quote] again. DO. NOT. TOUCH. TELEPORT. unless you give us the ability to build roads. getting around in this game is bad enough already (worse now that organized is getting axed and tile movemen
[quote who="Rogue_Direwolf" reply="6" id="2775211"]Actually I was talking about named NPCs... Many others are reporting this as well. It is very strange, according to SD it is supposed to be that the NPCs are higher lvl than your SOV so that is why I can't recruit. But my SOV was lvl 8 in my most recent game, and I couldn't recruit more than 1 NPC...plenty of money, but I could only recruit 2 NPCs...the others are named but I get the talk bubble with the X through it...And they are
i am not going to complain about that because i am assuming that this means that they are working on a way to improve the road system...right? (plus i think i did enough complaining yesterday)
cool
[quote who="jereome" reply="51" id="2775167"] Some people need to take a chill pill and stop f-ing whining, before someone starts handing out the cheese. Seriously there isnt a single issue with money in the game now, if your having problems getting money then perhaps you need to learn how to play. By turn 700 I had over 50,000 gold saved up... Doh... doesnt seem to be a problem there getting money. Its simple you get one gold mine + palace + 1gp per turn Jan
[quote who="jereome" reply="13" id="2775155"]You made your point and I personally feel like calling you names but Ill refrain. You are clearly over exaggerating to the extreme. I have played a few games now and havent had any problems finding resources. Sure they are rare, but nowhere near as bad as you make it out to be. Also what makes me want to laugh are people like you that whine and complain about this when you can easily mod the resources to make them more common. <br /
i just had an embarrassing moment. i said something that (even i realized) was incredibly over the top rude. so i edited it. but when i checked the thread a bit later, people were quoting the original offensive statement as though i had left it up...someone should look at that
um...does my post still say that? because i changed that post almost instantly and i am confused as to why it is being quoted....
[quote who="Chibiabos" reply="6" id="2775116"]If, by less resources, you actually mean more, because there are more food resources and you now get a gold resource. Pffft. [/quote] I don't think that is what he meant.
