How do you recruit champions besides the ones stationary on the map? Or are these the only ones? I've tried a few play throughs(have not finished any yet) and these stationary heroes waiting to be recruited are very rare and it doesn't seem like new ones spawn.

I'd like to see some way in the game you can train champions with basic fighting techniques without having to fight for the XP to get traits. The same, except unlimited for traits in regards to spell casting. Something like a champion having to sit in a city for a set period of time with a particular building. Maybe something that can only be built in a conclave, the same thing for the other city type that is military based in regards to basic combat techniques or army bonuses.

My game crashed between turns/during opponents turn. My sovereign and some units were in combat with an opposing factions army. Though right before the combat started I got a request from a 3rd faction to help them out. I clicked yes, but battle occured. The fighting commenced, but at some point during the battle the diplomacy screen came up. So I traded some tech for some of the other faction's tech. After I exited out of the diplomacy screen I was no longer in the combat part of the gam

Playing my first game. Can't seem to figure out how create caravans and also how to gain more essence in a city. Nothing in the manual so far for creating caravans as far as I could find and little information on how to get more essence for a city. Can anyone explain?

[quote who="harpo99999" reply="30" id="3213274"]back in the dim dark distant days of yor(approx 1979 in my highschool's NEW computer class), I played a game on a trs-80 model 1 level 2 4k ram called 'snake' that drew the 'snake' on the screen using the 'block' graphics that the player steered around the screen using four keys, and when the 'snake' hit a side or itself the game ended, and after I learnt some programming I started creating my own version of t

I was never much for console games once I got a computer, but I wanted to mention Symphony of the Night(Castlevania game) and Master of Monsters I and II. I played them a lot and really enjoyed them. However, I tried Master of Monsters II about 4 months ago after not playing it for over a decade and was bored quickly. Shrug.

[quote who="Lord Xia" reply="14" id="3182954"]Vampire: Bloodlines is also one of my all time favorites, hard to have left it off my list. That and Arcanum...shit all the Troika games could be on my list.[/quote] At first I thought Arcanum was amazing, but after a while I stopped caring and never finished. I guess it was too much fantasy. Not that I'm against fantasy, but the steam punk part was great the magic and so forth was kinda irritating.

Vampire:Bloodlines Civ IV Madden 07 Master of Magic Master of Orion II I chose these simply on how much time I spent playing and the replayability of these games. I have only ever played two RPGs more than once, which was fall out 3 las vegas and vampire:bloodlines. However I played bloodlines through with each clan at least once and some of them twice. Civ IV was just the best of the series. Mechanics, map generation, balance, et

Yay for hijacking my thread! :( Anyway, i've been needing a new game to play; in this case something to make a game i've played and and interesting. So I bought the expansion from steam. So far for one play through i'm finding not much has changed. Just a new aspect for trying to race ahead other civs. The spying is very minor and doesn't require much attention. The new civs aren't all that interesting either. A few other things have changed, but for the most part

[quote who="Imper1um" reply="15" id="3178268"]Hello again, guys. 3. We're planning to organize beta-test sometime in August maybe. In the meantime we have to test the English version of the original game. So keep that in mind [/quote] I think it would be a GREAT idea to let the beta testers for Elemental:WoM and FE into your beta. Ahem! [e digicons];)[/e]

[quote who="Cauldyth" reply="9" id="3177753"] I realize I'm in the minority, but Warlock was a dud for me. I played through it twice, and felt no desire to ever play it a third time. To me, it wasn't worth the $20 I paid for it. [/quote] With you in the minority, I didn't even buy it. very disappointed.

[quote who="KlaxXxon" reply="1" id="3177620"] First impression of players and first reviews are rather positive, so I'm looking forward to it a lot. I liked even vanilla Civ 5, so I think G&K will be all good stuff for me.[/quote] Yeah, buts its $29.99 that is the big issue. They're obviously charging a lot because they think people will pay, not because its what its worth. I'm not poor, but I don't like the idea of

[quote who="Cauldyth" reply="129" id="3150879"]If nothing else, Warlock has certainly inflamed people's passions. [/quote] I don't feel passionate about my opinion. I tried the demo after being excited about the game and decided its a 'meh' game. Reading other people's descriptions and reviews i'm glad i didn't buy it. I think I would have a much stronger opinion if I had bought it, i'd be vastly disappointed.
