OK. Less than 1% tried to play WoM multiplayer, but those numbers are likely biased against MP because it was a terrible game at release. Nothing suppresses online numbers like a game not being fun to play. IMHO, the exact numbers are pretty much irrelevant. I think it's a good decision to focus on making the SP experience the best it can be and then decide whether multiplayer can be done in a way that makes the game better.

@RataTosk: I was replying to Strumpetplaya, your post kind snuck in between. @Strumpetplaya: Apology accepted. I understand your frustration. MP would be a great feature in this game, but there are legitimate reasons why MP is not going to be in FE on release. It's annoying, but that's the way it is. I don't think you're the 1%. By the statistics I've seen, MP is like the 14%. Small, but significant.

Is there some requirement for MP that you have to come off like a complete jerk in every post you make?

Reply to Enemy Champions in FE Beta Elemental Forums

Sometimes gameplay trumps lore. Though I doubt it's part of the lore that the champions for the opposing factions broadcast their presence to everyone and make themselves easy prey for their natural opponents.

If you got rid of the pointless "imbue" mechanic, champs would also be able to cast spells in their own defense. Give them a couple units backup and a mana pool and then you better know what you're doing when you mess with them.

Reply to [Suggestion] Breakable equipment in FE Beta Elemental Forums

I agree with Lord Xia. That's a little too much realism, especially in a game where you have more than one or two champions. Though a special ability that disarmed a hero for a turn or two during tactical battles might be interesting.

Reply to [Suggestion] More Diverse Tech-Tree in FE Beta Elemental Forums

Was it my post here: https://forums.elementalgame.com/416009/page/1/#3064370 My idea is to divide techs into branches and leaves. Branches would be integral techs that cost a lot to research and make a big difference in the game. Leaves are support techs (like warg riding) that offer distinct advantages/weapons that you can either research normally or buy using gold/mana. I would love to

Reply to [AI ISSUE/BUG/DISCUSSION] Its a TRAP! Ai disbanding its army... in FE Beta Elemental Forums

Maybe the AI is committing a purge of the military establishment to forestall a coup! [e digicons]:P[/e] I feel like I have been seeing what can only be the AI suiciding its units. I think the AI must be running out of money. Perhaps it's feeling threatened by a monster or enemy army elsewhere and wants to rush production there. Disbanding units is a very inefficient strategy.

Reply to [AI][.76] AI Capitalizes on Resources in FE Beta Elemental Forums

I don't know if the AI is moving through units. I had a game where I moved a scout unit into the fog of war only to have it land on a monster unit after I ended turn. I got the "Attack" dialog and Auto Resolved (i shoulda died as the scout has no attack or defense), but the battle didn't happen. The scout and the monster ended up on top of each other. After that, the end turn button was disabled and so I had to kill the game. Of course, my inte

Well, they did fall in battle. So they could just get warped to the nearest enemy city where they recuperate for x turns as usual. Also, this should only happen if you lose the fight entirely.

[quote who="adaban" reply="3" id="3066144"]I think heroes need bodygaurd armies that disappear if they get hired, help to defend said hero at least till mid game.
