[quote who="Kongdej" reply="1" id="3323433"] Also, what difficulty were you playing at? 6 horses and 6 wargs sounds crippling on challenging and below.

[1.291 bug] 1. AI over-purchase of mounts 2. AI hero converts before sovereign surrenders in Fallen Enchantress Elemental Forums

In my current game, I got a sovereign to surrender. when I looked at his equipment list, I saw that he had purchased 6 horses and 6 wargs. That seems a bit much. don't think he had twelve heros to trade them to. 2. When I captured a city with an AI hero, the hero stayed in the city recovering for 5 turns, and then became part of my faction (It wasn't until many turns later that his sovereign surrendered)

[1.291beta]Dragon ignores AI unit standing next to it for several turns in Fallen Enchantress Elemental Forums

If I station my units next to a dragon for a turn of two, I get attacked, but this AI unit remained next to the dragon for several turns unscathed. It was a wandering dragon that came from it's lair and decided to "settle" next to one of my outposts.

[quote who="Frogboy" reply="1" id="3322573"]Agreed. The change has already been made internally to have it based on their personality and will be more picky about when and how they build it. So they won't build it as early but when they do it'll be a lot tougher to conqeur the city that does it. [/quote] Great. Thanks!

[1.29 beta] Almost all of the AI's are going for the spell of making in Fallen Enchantress Elemental Forums

I'm on a large map with 6 AI's, using storm world mod. All but one is going for the spell of making. That's a complete 180... From all conquest to an all magic victory. Shouldn't each faction have it's own preference? Just like in GC2, some opted for war, some for influence, some for a tech victory, etc.

[1.29 beta] AI doesn't execute sneak attack properly in Fallen Enchantress Stardock Forums

So, one of the AI's declares war and attacks. I barely defeat his stack, and he offers a cease fire, he waits one turn and declares war again and attacks. I defeat his second stack, he offers cease fire, waits a turn and the declares war and attacks again, and then proceeds to go through this cycle two more times in a row before I save and shut down for the night. It's a well known stategy. Offer a cease fire and wait a sufficient amount of time so that your enemy lets his gua

[quote who="mqpiffle" reply="6" id="3322112"]I think if you enter an opponent's borders without a NAP and they need to ask you to leave, you should take a -1 diplo hit for say 10 turns, stackable.

No need for any other type of diplomacy, no need for city development, etc. There's a group of people who want a civ like game, and there are those who just want a fanatsy empire total war.

[quote who="DsRaider" reply="1" id="3322045"] I thought of suggesting a "safe passage treaty" integrated into the diplomacy screen, but the way the diplomacy mechanics work currently, the AI would probably want a small fortune for it....making it a useless option. Non-Aggression pacts and Alliances allow you to do move through their territory, although they can be hard to get unless you plan ahead diplomatically. [/quote] Thanks, you're righ

Passing through an AI border in Fallen Enchantress Stardock Forums

Right now, if you can't pass through another factions territory within 1 turn, you are asked to leave. The logic behind this, of course, is to prevent the human player from declaring war when at AI's doorstep. However, there is already a amechanic in the game that requires that you be outside of the AI's territory before declaring war, so the request to leave the territory is unecessary. In my current game, I'm boxed in and can't expand b

Another issue: The AI reacts when you start building the towers, but doesn't react when you start the spell of making. So, I after taking the AI city with the towers, another AI (With a stronger power rating than me) declares war. I manage to barely destroy two stacks he sends my way, then he suggests a cease fire (outside of the diplo screen). I accept the cease fire and start researc

1.29 beta - Spell of making balance issue in Fallen Enchantress Elemental Forums

So looking at the faction power rating bar, I saw one faction was building the towers. So I declared war and start attacking his cities. I conquered the city with three of the towers, and here are my potential balance observations. 1. I was able to retain the towers and have them count toward my own spell of making..BUT I hadn't researched the book of mastery yet. 2. Conquering an AI city with towers is far too easy a way to

It's seems really good! i'm looking forward to 1.3. Jumping the gun here, but some thoughts on diplomacy: Multiple trade agreements should have an additional +1 bonus to relations, to reflect the economic ties between factions. So two trade agreements, an aad'l +1, 3 trade agreements an additional +1, for a total of +2 (above and beyond the base +1 relation adjustments). Breaking agreements, or unprovoked attacks/war should carry bigger dipolomacy penalties

[quote who="Kongdej" reply="5" id="3319778"] Quoting Borg999, reply 3 Well, they can always put caps on the damage to prevent a spell from becoming OP. What I mean is, let the spell damage be boosted by "Mage Level".. or the amount of magetraits a character have, so each trait that you put in one of the ones available from path of the mage lets you deal more damage. Putting a cap on the damage is a bad move I feel, because that would just "Wor

Well, I'm not a modder, and I don't play one on TV, but I would buy a spell DLC in a heartbeat if there were a good variety of spells.

Idea on how damage spells should be calculated in Fallen Enchantress Stardock Forums

Right now, many damage spells rely on shards to increase the effect. (E.g 18 base damage +1 per fire shard) I propose making the caster's level the factor that increases spell damage directly, with the shards as an additional modifier. The modifier might be something like increasing the total damage by 5 or 10% per shard. So 1 fire shard would increase damage by 10%, two would increase damage by 20%, etc. For example: A 10th level sovereign with access to two fir
