Yes this is very annoying. It seems the counter is off by one turn or something like that.

When training new units, the second button listed under "Quality:" remains unlocked after starting a new game without first exiting the game. To duplicate: 1) Start a game as the Tarthans and found a city. 2) Note that the "Experienced" button is available for use. 3) Start a new game as Altar without exiting and found a city. 4) Note that the "Experienced" button remains available for use. 5) Now exit the game and restart. 6) Start a ne

Fully uninstalling, deleting the \My Games\Elemental folder, and reinstalling seems to have cleared this up for me. I'll post a debug if it happens again.

New for 1.20 I'm getting a DirectX crash when I come back after Alt+Tabbing out of the game. I didn't have this problem with 1.19. This is with Windows 7 64-bit, Radeon 5870 1GB, 4GB of system RAM

[quote who="impinc" reply="1" id="2931670"]Really? Where does it say that? EDIT: They start with the Training tech, maybe you are confusing it with that tech? [/quote] Heh... Yeah I came back to edit my post and you had already posted. This thread can be deleted.

This isn't new to 1.20, but it still exists. The Tarthans don't start with the Equipment Tech even though they're supposed to.

Still needed in 1.20. Right now pressing the "Retire" button deletes the unit's .XML file but not its .PNG file so I have to go find it and delete it manually. :(

As of 1.19i this remains a much needed feature. I hate having to add "TA" in front of any unit name for my Tarthan units, and other letters for other factions. Even then, it's still crazy hard to keep my units organized since the game doesn't overwrite units with the same name, it just creates a new one! This isn't hard to do so I'm hoping it'll happen.

This remains a problem since the Unit Designer still allows us to design units using mounts we can never harvest.

Still exists in 1.19

Talking about troops in this thread.

Pie-in-the-sky ideas ahead 1. I could see some special tech(s) that allow weapons and armor that are a cross between the current "regular" ones and the current "magical" ones. For example, Light Plate that uses both Metal and Crystal, but no Elementium. It would not be "legendary" but simply magically enhanced. Perhaps it wouldn't add any more Defense than regular Light Plate, but it wouldn't have a Dodge penalty, or something like that. 2. Another possibility i

[quote who="Nenjin" reply="7" id="2848596"] It sucks for those of us that enjoy long games, but it's best to scrap everything: game, custom factions and sovereigns, with every update. [/quote] Sometimes custom units too.

I like this idea!

Sorry to hear you're still having problems. Hopefully they'll get it sorted out soon. For the Devs, I can say that this is the first version where I've been able to go through a full game without a crash, so kudos on that.

This bug has been around for a while. I thought I posted something about it a while back, but it's not in my list of posts. When you look at the Training window, you have the four buttons for Single, Group, Squad, etc. and another four buttons for Recruit, Veteran, Elite, etc. What's happening is if you gain techs enabling some or all of these buttons, then either load a previous save or start a new game, these buttons do not reset. They remain selectable. Currently the only way to fi

Not a big deal atm, but I wanted to mention it before I forget. I started a new game as the Magnar and in the Design window the Peasant design you start with only has 1 Movement. The Pioneer correctly has 2. New units also have 2. Also I'm not sure if it's intentional or not, but the Magnar Pioneer has a club, which makes it cost quite a bit more than a Human (any of the Kingdom races) Pioneer.

While playing as an Empire, I was amazed to discover a Crystal Crag. I promptly built a town next to it and researched Arcane Experiments. After researching Arcane Experiments, I still couldn't build a mine on it. The text says I need to research Arcane Weapons in order to harvest, but Arcane Weapons is now the last tech in the crystal tech line (after Arcane Armor now). I suspect that when these techs got switched around, the tech to unlock the crystal mine didn't get changed as well. Since

TYVM I changed it to Super-Sampling and it works again. =) I would never have found this on my own!

This is still happening in 1.09t. :(

I see several posts about the game crashing with 1.09s, but in my case the game doesn't crash. Instead, the screen is just all white so I can't see the cloth map, units, or anything else other than the basic UI. I can hit Esc and the window appears with Save, Load, Options, Exit to Main Menu, etc. so I can exit to the main menu and then exit the game. I tried uninstalling the game and reinstalling it, but the white screen still occurs. My video card is an ATI Radeon 5870 1GB and this

I find this particularly true of Metal. I can explore the entire map on Tiny and not find a single Metal resource. Then if I research Exploration and similar techs, it adds a whopping one Metal resource to the map, which may or may not be accessible to me, and even then if it's not near a food resource or if it's really far from my current holdings, it becomes incredibly difficult if not impossible to defend.

It would definitely be good to have Dodge working. A Shield is a joke without it...

Kingdom weapons, armor, and equipment updated to 1.10.

[quote who="Carewolf" reply="5" id="2829597"]Somehow in fixing this the war staff was broken completely. It is now both the cheapest and best weapon for a long time.[/quote] I disagree that it's the cheapest. It has a high Gold cost, and Gold is what determines how much the unit's wages are. It's also a 2H weapon. This high Gold cost often leads me to continue using Spears in many cases. I also find the Short Sword at least equally effective, although it can be insa
