[quote who="Glazunov1" reply="1" id="3363362"] I always preferred setting myself goals and limitations in city sims. There's no good reason after all to play the vanilla game if you don't want to. Play it however you prefer. And if you haven't tried them yet, take a look at all the mods that add to its complexity.[/quote] Thanks Glazunov1, I'll try the mods. Just wondering. How complex are the underlying mechanics? For example, I bu
So, I was itching for a good city sim and saw this on sale at Steam last week for $10. I didn't start this thread to brag, but is this game too easy? It's just a directed hand holding session. Build a road, city hall and utilities and then just build housing and jobs for skilled and unskilled workers en mass. Rinse and repeat until you get to a 5,000 population, where a few more buildings become unlocked. With $500K to spend, it's almos

I'd like to keep the mechanic the way it is. Disturbing a lair is a potential risk. Ninja looting is the reward for that risk. I once disturbed a banshee lair with expanding borders, and she starting laying waste to my mines and shards. My sovereign stack was on the other side of the map, and none of the defensive units in the city had magical attack abilities.
12:01am on release day is when I expect to see it. Any later is unacceptable. It completely ruins the game for me otherwise. [e digicons]:grin:[/e]
A few month ago, Brad posted a Google search on "Elemental" to show all the bad press, and said that he was looking forward to moving beyond/closing the Elemental chapter. So LH may be the final version.
[quote who="Lord Reliant" reply="1" id="3359910"]Air Elemental does. But it is a bit disappointing to see a lightning dragon just walk across the map. [/quote] Well it really doesn't fly. More like it hovers above the ground.
The biggest question in my mind is why they can't "port" the diplomatic system from GC2 to FE/LH. Both games are made by SD, so what makes the mechanics in LH so different from GC2, that the diplomacy can't be replicated?
I got shadow rift through a quest and held off on using it until near the end game. A drake was threatening a city, so I cast shadow rift, the demons appear and just stood around. Walked over and occupied the same tile as the drake, but did nothing. Later an enemy AI attacked, so I cast the spell again. Still nothing. the demons just let the AI's army pass by without a scratch. Per the spell description, the demons are supposed to attack any
Am I right in assuming that OD doesn't load in safe mode? Which means I'll have to keep some icons on my desktop if I want to be able to access them in safe mode?
Thanks guys!
I have a few programs for which there are no Objectdock icons available, so I would like to create my own. How can I do that? Thanks!
When I get a new game, i play to win to "prove" I can do it. After I've won a couple times under different conditions, playing the game to the bitter end really isn't a big priority, but I usually finish a game one way or another.
Just a heads-up I downloaded Object Dock and started adding icons. In the games tab, I added Civ4, GC2, Tropico, and finally LH. LH was the only one that didn't have it's own object dock icon. It just defaulted to a generic globe icon. IMHO, LH is worthy of it's own object dock icon. [e digicons]:thumbsup:[/e]
Blizzard may affect a group, but at 8 points of damage (to each enemy), it's still under powered mid game or later. My suggestion is to 1. remove the casting time 2. increase the base damage to 12, plus +2 per water shard and +1 for every other caster level. Blind - if your going to keep the effect at 25%, I think the manna cost should be reduced. I'd rather see it go up to 50% (or more and have the manna cost increased, or the duration limited. I'll think of
I've never seen a magic bow that did more than 9 points of damage.

What's confuses me is why the diplomacy in FE/LH is so lacking, when we all know how good it can be from GC2.
[quote who="phazonfreak" reply="1" id="3356767"] They have? Can you quote a post to support this? [/quote] To be fair, Brad has used the term "entitement", quite a lot.

Well the percent of henchwomen should reflect the player percentages. I think SD reported 5% female customers. so to reflect our community, 5% of the henchpeople/heros encountered/trained should be female. [e digicons]O:)[/e] [e digicons]:grin:[/e]

[quote who="salikgyula" reply="19" id="3355743"] Quoting Wizard1200, reply 18 I dont want autoresolve battles, i want play them. [/quote] So do I, to a point. By mid game, I just don't have the desire to go into tactical battles with any left over low level monsters. Better to just auto -resolve and be done with it.
