[quote who="TBSGAMER" reply="42" id="2506036"] @MagicwillNZ First, Joan d'Arc was not known because of her extraordinary physical strenght, was she? Second, I don't have anything against femalde leaders. What I don't get is why it is important to give them the same physical capabilities. And I have yet to hear a single valid counter argument. Men and women are divided in athletics,swimming, combat sports, ... for a reason. If you alienate half of the fanbase by mode

[quote who="Denryu" reply="18" id="2505905"] Similar bonuses in other techs could be based on how many smithies/farmers/other that you have. I realize this is not precisely what the OP had in mind, but it seems like a simple way to gain some of that "flavor" without completely scrapping the current system. Instead of "population" generating research, have the people in each field generate research in their applicable field. Thus it might even be possible to make a military breakthrough e

I can't wait to start trying this out. If I can make a Dark Republic server, I will. [quote]I repeat my question again: Can't we save and reload LAN MP games just like in Civ4 or Dominions 3?

[quote who="TBSGAMER" reply="38" id="2505547"] Don't take it personal but my take on this is that many men are submissive to women. They would love to be dominated and overpowered in bed.

My problem with your idea is that it seems like a game unto itself. Technology is there to support certain strategies. Here it's running off with it like a bandit Elemental is already doing a lot of new things with technology. I think the breakthrough system is quite good.

[quote who="Scoutdog" reply="43" id="2504326"]I love long answers. Another possibility is that the goodies on this planet are more political than tactical: say, the planet was discovered by Joe The Famous Explorer or has been selected as a microcosm "proving ground" by Unity, aliens, or somebody else, and thus has a lot of media attention on the people colonizing it. If they can succeed in taking control, they look really good, but if they fail nobody wants to side with them.[/quote]

It doesn't look like lipstick to me. Lipstick looks like this: The end is sort of blunted on lipstick. That tower looks like a tower, and a fine lookin' one at that.

Reply to Races--because they really matter if you want an epic game in War of Magic Elemental Forums

[quote]Humans = boring.[/quote] We're not boring! Fantasy Strategy games have been making the humans boring for years. I'll admit, I enjoyed Warcraft a lot more when it was *just* orcs and *just* humans. Now, you can't throw a rock in that world without hitting some rediculous race. I feel like over time mythical monsters and races in games have been becoming less and less special. Elves are pretty much vanilla no matter what subrace you slap onto them. Element

I cant tell if this is a suggestion or a question... Either way, I don't know. As other games have shown us tech stealing and brokering can lead to unbalance.

Reply to Forgotten weapon (the emergence of strong monsters, after some action players) in War of Magic Elemental Forums

From what I've heard already, ancient monsters and weapons will already be popping from the ground. The devs hinted at very rare extremely powerful monsters that might break from their earthly prisons. A lot of elements are randomly chosen to make the game more interesting. In some worlds, say, a giant volcano unpredictably explodes, and in another a great demon is chained at the bottom of a dungeon waiting to serve the one that frees it. Things like that.

Reply to Dying Sun in War of Magic Elemental Forums

DnD as a system for mass combat has been something that has always sort of intrigued me. Chirmaya was going to port DnD to Elemental, but he/she disappeared... scared away by forum trolls, I imagine. So is your objective to unfreeze the world? To restore the sun? You talked about a sandbox game but I don't know what that means in the context of a turn based strategy game. You mean skirmish, right? The one thing I do like about 4ed is the way the default world is post-apocalypt
