EDIT: for everyone that was complaining about the fact that heroes can single-handedly clear the map, here is a good balance: for wildlings, you need to build up some units with magic resistance, initiative and/or tactical movement... Nothing you build will save you fr

I agree with others please keep this in. Game is weak when it comes to challange especially at the early game. This is like a breath of fresh air. Please don't cave into those who want the game handed to them with no challanges. If this is the type of game they want then they can go play Hello Kitty.

I see absolutely no reason to go from OOOh look a mana source to the current system where you end up sucking hind tit if you dont have a forest and a shard and a farm and 3 essence...needless complexity is needless. Just before essence there were MANY complaints about food/mats values being low. Now we have another value on top of that which di

I disagree with OP. I perfer to keep Essense. I never ctrl-n (I personally view this as a cheat so I never use it) and even with a bad postion I usally still have good games. I do thing that every square on the map with the exception of mountains and water should have the resources even if bad.

Derek can you explain why you guys did not seperate the Tech trees? What I mean is that there are some techs who's pereq's are from a different tree. Peronally I wish you guys would have either keeped them seperate (Ala. Endless Space) or just have one tech tree (ALA. many 4x games CIV for example.

See, this is where you guys have me completely wrong. I want complexity and depth, but a special kind of complexity and depth called "emergent complexity". I don't want there to be 100 spells; I want there to be less than 20 extremely rich and deep spells. Do you guys think the boardgame Go is like,

FE has far less spells (and variety for those that exist) than MOM. i kinda agree with unit design. i never do it cos the diffs are minor. sure ship design worked for MOO , but MOO is quite different because you had to design ships and ship design makes a LOT of difference due to variety of technology and ship modules. With FE, unit design is just a matter of tw

Reply to [Suggestion] Game design suggestions in FE Beta Stardock Forums

All I have to say is that I'm glad your not the game designer on this game. First: I Disagree with you about AOW (AOW:SM so far is one of the 4x Fantasy games so far IMO. Better than MOM, 'an improvement actully.') Second: I would hate for there to be only a couple of spells to choose from (BORING.) Third: You really want to limit the number of monsters ........ Really. Talk about boring. If any thing they shouls add more creatures.<

[quote who="MidnightsFX" reply="10" id="3225733"]In my humble opinion, horses should probably have a different bonus than Wargs, say horses give 2-3 defense or 15 health or something? But, the +2 movement and the +3 initiative, is pretty crazy. I also think the prone is kind of completely unnecessary. For 80 gold, how about +1 move, +10 carry capacity +1-2 initiative horses? While wargs get +1 move, +10 dodge and +1-2 initiative. Perhaphs receiving an additional +1 move an
