Reply to Why [1.00] Fallen Enchantress does not work in Fallen Enchantress Elemental Forums

I think one big thing that would help is if all monsters and quests changed difficulty as you the player progressed. In one game I'm playing, there are two giant dragons in my territory that have a frightening attack value and are immune to magic. In order to take them out, I need to get much stronger. However, there's really not much else left in terms of stuff to level up my units, so I'm basically stuck. That's really annoying. Just adjust the

Reply to AI Wars: Beta 3 Edition in Elemental Dev Journals Elemental Forums

It would be great if the AI could have differing strategies to employ based on their characteristics. When you talk about ensuring each of the groups are distinguishable from one another and have really interesting differences, this could be one other area to compare them. It's something that would be apparent to the player as well.

[0.86] Interface Suggestions in Fallen Enchantress Elemental Forums

When moving units around on the map, show the number of turns it will take to get to the destination. In addition, show in a different color how far they will go in the current turn if they move there. Otherwise, you just click on the map and have no idea what's going to happen or how long it will take. Making it a two click affair (one click shows the path, the next click actually moves would be helpful). Hitting escape takes me to the options screen wh

Is it possible to use video card memory for storage as well?

Reply to Question about Children in War of Magic Elemental Forums

It would be nice if we could see the age of our children. Knowing how long until they're "grown up" is important.

Reply to Suggestion for Global Resource Display in War of Magic Elemental Forums

Yeah, I'm just thinking this would give a better indication of quantities up or down each turn.

Suggestion for Global Resource Display in War of Magic Elemental Forums

I have a suggestion for the display of global resources on the top of the screen. Instead of hovering over each resource to see how much is gained or lost each turn, just put that amount right on the screen. To the right of the resource, put (+amount) in green or (-amount) in red depending on if the resource is increasing or decreasing. This would make it much easier to use.

Reply to Guard Command in War of Magic Elemental Forums

I was thinking guard would make them patrol around your area of influence. It would be kinda nice to have them move around your city and defend the outskirts.

Reply to Seiges? Does anything actually happen? in War of Magic Elemental Forums

There should be some indication that the siege is actually going on, some sort of animation or graphic on the map because it's not enough to just click the siege action. When I tried it, nothing happened so I just assumed it was broken. There was no message or anything so I just thought it hadn't been implemented yet or something.

Reply to [1.1] - Click Next Turn, Does Nothing in WOM Support Elemental Forums

Just saw this thread: https://forums.elementalgame.com/402975 I had a unit that was autoexploring, but it doesn't show him as doing this. However, when I click on autoexplore, it continues the turn. So, it's working, but that's still a fairly noticeable bug.

[1.1] - Click Next Turn, Does Nothing in WOM Support Elemental Forums

I have a game in 1.1 where when I click next turn, nothing happens. I was building a new city right before this happened. I also noticed an oddity in the game where a unit I designed shows up twice. I had noticed earlier that the unit's portrait had gotten changed to the portrait of another unit I built so I went in to fix it. After this, the unit shows up twice. Here's the save file: http://

Reply to Diplomacy Question in War of Magic Elemental Forums

In addition, I thought it was cool in GalCiv2 where you could initiate so much trade with a faction that they didn't want to declare war on you or anger you because if trade was cut off their entire economic system would collapse. That's the kind of real life economic/diplomatic power that made the game so interesting. Can anyone comment who has played the beta?

Diplomacy Question in War of Magic Elemental Forums

How does the diplomacy in dealing with other factions compare to other games such as GalCiv2? Is it more or less robust? I'm curious because this was the greatest strength of GalCiv2 IMO. Thanks.

Reply to Bug: Steal Income from Planet w/Negative Income in Sins Diplomacy Sins Forums

Hmm, well it sounds like these are a couple things that they could fix. Hopefully this is easy to fix. I would imagine a couple "if" statements to check to make sure certain conditions are true before casting these abilities....

Bug: Steal Income from Planet w/Negative Income in Sins Diplomacy Sins Forums

I noticed in Sins Diplomacy (and also probably in the other version I would guess) when the capital ship has steal income from planet auto enabled, it will use this feature even when the income level of the planet is negative (in the red). The good thing is this doesn't seem to show a loss in income, however, it is kind of annoying that this energy is being wasted. It should be pretty easy to check and see if the planet has negative income and if so, don't autodeploy that power.</

Reply to Keeping your sovereign alive: The Sequel! in War of Magic Elemental Forums

[quote who="Femmefatal48" reply="204" id="2407021"]I think that is key Tormy is give us options like in GalCiv2 you know like tech trading on/off switch. Those that want to play with the sovereign dies game over can and those that don't want it can turn it off. I don't see why this has to be such an issue and dividing point. Create a switch and everyone is happy. ) I really think it is going to be a major issue with the selling point if it's one sided. I've been reading other forums and prosp

Reply to Keeping your sovereign alive: The Sequel! in War of Magic Elemental Forums

What about instead of dying, the main character gets reset at capital city with no experience and loses all special abilities and items? Kinda like in Kohan how they were immortal and could die but then you had to spend money to unlock their amulet? Otherwise, if there's a risk of the person dying and me losing the game, I'll just park them in my main city and have them do research or spells or something. There's no point in risking it.

3D Game Engine Question in War of Magic Elemental Forums

I'm just curious what 3D game engine is being used for this title. Is this something that was developed in-house or licensed from a 3rd party? It looks great so far, kinda reminds me of Kohan Immortal Sovereigns (that game ruled!). Good luck with the development. Cheers.

Reply to Sins of a Solar Empire: Diplomacy wish list in Sins of a Solar Empire Sins Forums

The system you had setup for GalCiv 2 was almost perfect. The fact that you could trade/sell/barter anything in the game was great. The progression and solidification of alliances and rivalries was great and to this day, I haven't seen another game setup a diplomacy system as rich as GalCiv 2.

Does this mean I can install Sins regular and Sins Entrenchment and have them be separate? I would like to play with a friend who only has the original. I know you could do it "unofficially" before by copying the game but this way is a lot easier.

I think the life cycle of Stardock published games is much better than others because they are very good about releasing patches and new content. Most other games will get one patch.... if they're lucky....
