[1.4] [Bug] Multiple units co-occupying tiles in both Tactical and Strategic maps in LH Support Elemental Forums

I just saw an AI enemy move their unit into a tile already occupied by another of their units. This was not a "pass-through" where it allows one unit to pass through a tile occupied by a friendly unit to get to a tile on another side -- rather, one unit moved to a tile already occupied by another of their units, ending its tactical moves there, and a third unit moved into the same tile. I have also noticed units of hostile factions co-occupying tiles on the strategic map ... in

[1.4] Quest text typo - "Three Sons" in LH Support Elemental Forums

Upon consuming 100 mana to heal the woman, the text blurb in the last paragraph reads: "... which she does with a fervor that would make a Trog solider blush. ..." There is this marvelous new invention called a spell check ... doesn't cost that much mana to cast. :P

[1.4] [Bug] Attacking also gives a move order, can cause unit to move into a square with an enemy army in LH Support Elemental Forums

I hadn't noticed this in 1.3 or earlier versions, but ever since installing the 1.4 beta patch, I've noticed when right clicking an enemy army in an adjacent tile, it sometimes triggers a move order simultaneous with the attack order. It recently did this and actually moved my army into the tile in which I destroyed one enemy army, despite a second enemy army occupying the tile concurrently with my moved army.

[1.4] Rats in the ruins quest? in LH Support Elemental Forums

I can't actually remember the last time this was a real quest; I know it was the same in 1.3 -- it shows as a "Medium" quest, but all you do is trigger the quest, visit the ruins not many tiles away, there's no fight there, then go back to the quest location. How is that "medium" difficulty?

Reply to The American constitution isn't very complicated in Life, the Universe and Everything Elemental Forums

[quote who="Frogboy" reply="48" id="3403699"] Sigh. I'd enjoy conversing with you more if you didn't keep trying to disprove a general truth by showing exceptions and then act like the other person was somehow unfamiliar with those exceptions. By and large, the states determine gun control laws. If you disagree, then say so. Say "most gun laws are made at the federal level" (which is provably false). quit with the "look at me, I can show exceptions while not actually t

Reply to The American constitution isn't very complicated in Life, the Universe and Everything Elemental Forums

Wrong, wrong, all wrong. One simple example to show how wrong Brad is: " In addition, 27 amendments were added to the constitution to further clarify any remaining question on what the federal government is allowed to do." No, the Amendments do not merely clarify; in several cases, they alter significantly (over what had been present in the Constitution) what is or is not constitutionally allowed. A rather blaring example was the Constitution, in its or

This is what we get for so many idiots voting for "small government," pro-privatization candidates who support outsourcing government projects to private contractors. :/ Unfortunately its become ubiquitous among candidates on 'both' sides (yes, I vote for third party candidates but the vast majority of Americans ignore them and even scoff at those of us who vote for the candidate we think best suits us instead of limiting ourselves to 'lesser of two evils'), and the resu

Reply to Help Dev Choice - DRM or DRM Free? in PC Gaming Elemental Forums

[quote who="Campaigner" reply="31" id="3362039"] DRM can mean many things so it must be specified what exactly it means. SteamWorks I support since it feels worth it to buy games with it since you get achievements and the Steam overlay. I bought Puzzle Quest 2 on Steam since it has achievements. If there wasn't a SteamWorks version then what is the incentive to buy it since there is no downside to pirating it. Yes,

Reply to Help Dev Choice - DRM or DRM Free? in PC Gaming Elemental Forums

[quote who="MarvinKosh" reply="33" id="3362179"] DRM means potential unreliability in the future. Your software may end up as useless as a virtual doorstop if it is not allowed to run because of an 'Error, could not connect to the server.' The thing that customers worry about is wasting their money on software or games which don't work. So if you design it in a way in which it won't or will very rarely break down, that is one less thing to put them

I am pretty sure its been that way since the first publicly released beta, like 0.8X or somesuch. It is a bit odd, given you don't get your second one until 50 fame, and from then on it doubles every time -- 100, 200, 400, 800, etc.
