[quote who="Derek Paxton" reply="9" id="3236069"] Ha, I'll take bug fixes however they happen. But yes she was working on something related and fixed it when she saw the logic was incorrect. That's the sign of an amazing developer. And in further defense of her I'm sure she detailed the change in her changelog email and I may not have read it as closely as I should have.

[quote who="seanw3" reply="9" id="3236034"]In my mod Death Demons are ridiculously overpowered and you spawn five armies from each gate. Times 100 gates means everyone is about to be really dead. I linked it to 3rd book of the magi so you have to do some spell research to get it. I sometimes cast it and then hide on an island for 100 turns.

However at the same time, a strong understanding of both psychology and design can also be used to manipulate people: black magic if you will.

Some developer managed stickies would do wonders.
Great post. Agree with all points except 12, 14, and 15. Regarding number 14, units have a highlighting border if they are still able to move.
This isn't an issue, just more interesting quests.
[quote who="sratner" reply="5" id="3234580"]I noticed that the resource icons disappear from the top bar when the amount of the resource is zero; so if at any point during the game I have zero mana, or zero crystals, the icon for that resource is removed. Besides being a somewhat annoying mis-feature (when I suddenly don't see my mana at a glance, I start looking around for it, and it takes me a minute to realise that it must be at zero - an obvious "0" in the top bar would be
