[quote who="Frogboy" reply="11" id="3286298"]My suggestion would be to lower world difficulty.[/quote] That is not the "only real" solution, this game is created around every playstyle, you have to play a very specific way to be competetive. For Eobet, if you are still having trouble, have you looked at "Tuidjy's" Walkthrough? - https://forums.elementalgame.com/435680 Also if you design your own units instead of
[quote who="GP1628" reply="208" id="3285311"]Multiplayer games tend to want to decide a winner based on strategy and tactics. Solo games are boring without some chaos and random luck thrown in. MPers hate being knocked out or having a game decided by a luck event. Soloists hate being limited to strategy vs an AI which usually sucks. Its hard to mix the two equally. Some games might have switches for toning down the random luck of map placement, or random event
[quote who="Muttala" reply="5" id="3284437"]This seems like a major flaw on the original game, really before we debate on what "fantastic features" should be added etc, the basic game have to be playable or otherwise..."broken"?

"19 A lair converted to a mercenary producing camp did now show up on the strategic map. After loading an auto save it did show up." Sounds like a bug, you should better report it.

Fantastic post, well only read point 1 to 20 but those are good points and needs to be said (some of them, if not most of them again and again). nr 17 doesn't really serve its purpose on this list as its really just an eastethiiii-whatever thing. (not saying you are not entitled to an opinion, just saying I agree WAAAAY more with all the others ;)) If you need me to help you, I will, but once I can plug power to my laptop again (since battery can't live long enough atm.)
[quote who="Tuidjy" reply="1" id="3283900"]Which is why my guide says: "Before you even move your Sovereign on turn one, set a research topic" It's not just libraries, other game locations award research which gets wasted if you do not have a topic selected.[/quote] And not only on turn 1 as far as I am concerned (I sometimes forget to set research, and the game just ignores me and my research produced for forgetting :P) Sincerely ~ Kongdej
This is due to a bug caused by the hero-mechanic of the campaign, the tactical maps are set up with pre-determined spawn locations for units, and mots tactical maps have 9 on them, so excess units will die, or end up out there where relias was placed. Some tactical maps allow for more units to spawn, mostly the maps where you defend your town from attacks (so there is space for city militia). Try to strip down your unit group to maximum 9 units if possible. You really wish y
[quote who="thadianaphena" reply="202" id="3283874"]Normally, as i said before half of the DLC out there just feels like it was plucked out of the game to be sold separately to minimize content.[/quote] Funny, that's how I feel about a map pack xD No offence, but I am not here for the maps, some players are and if they buy it, and enjoy it, fantastic! Also just saying those kind of feelings are different from player to player, that said I hope the dlc is at a proper pric

[quote]Does the game scale its bonuses for AI controlled players in proportion to the rate of progress the player has selected for the game?[/quote] No, only scales its ai bonuses with difficulties as far as I am aware (Its supposed to be like that anyways). [quote]I recently was watching the power rating of the AI controlled characters in the kingdom report, and it seems to me that with "hard ai" with epic (slow research game scale they gain power approximately twice my rate

[quote who="Tuidjy" reply="64" id="3282855"]There's no way around it - if you want to play on high difficulties, you will need to know how to delay awaking monsters, and how to deal with those that come after you.

[quote who="parrottmath" reply="16" id="3282608"] I wouldn't say to make a turkey farm.

[quote who="NanakoAC" reply="9" id="3282557"] Quoting Khorak, reply 8 What does my head in is that female Mancers have such a profoundly crap selection of clothes. They don't even have trousers. Or the fantastic female-only shoulder cloak. agreed here. Pariden has the same restrictions. It seems that the available selection of fabric meshes is restricted by race (or faction). Perhaps this is intended to promote some sort of visual similarity between untis o
You should put in an easter egg in the game, let it spawn a special tile resource - turkey's you can improve with a turkey farm - which only spawns on thanksgiving day ;) Sincerely ~ Kongdej

[quote who="sargittar" reply="70" id="3282360"]Personaly I don't see the Corefile problematic as something huge. ev4debug is already working on a mod-manager, from there it's but a small step to building a launcher, where you simply select the mods you want to use and then press start. while somewhere in the background the launcher shifts the necessary files around.[/quote] Its not huge for people used to this kind of modding, but is in no way idiot-friendly (Idiot is me, and
