[quote who="Lord Xia" reply="8" id="3236655"]So what are you doing with HP? HP should have a higher base and a lower growth than they do now. [/quote] Via the change log for .981 they have Changed hit points from 4 (base) + 4 (per level) to 6 (base) + 2 (per level) so a few levels don't make such a dramatic difference

[quote]I received an Ignys bow from one of the quests I completed, and I wanted to give it to one my Henchman (A standard Torchbearer). I can pull up the trade screen, and succesfully trade and equip several different melee weapons and shields. However, when I trade the bow, it disappears from the champion who was holding it ... but does not reappear on the henchman's inventory. I reloaded from autosave several times to test it out. The bow just disappeared into lalaland. (it didn&#3

[quote who="UmbralAngel" reply="17" id="3236466"]I think the main AI change you could make is that AI controlled units need to stop attacking adjacent units exclusively and run around to get at your weaker units that are hiding in the back. Currently it is way to easy to rotate weaker units or to keep archers safe in the back. [/quote] Agreed I did game the AI unintentionally by having my pioneers in the back and the AI couldn't get to them, they ignored my other units. I&#3

If you are building an object and "shift + left mouse click" anywhere on the map, then the city info panel goes away, although the build menu is up. I'm not sure if this is intended feature or if it was unintended. I would point out that this goes a long way in building a city, but in order to bring back the city info panel back you need to be done building. I would prefer a hot-key to remove the UI and still keep building, that same hotkey bring back the UI instead

[quote who="Tuidjy" reply="13" id="3236373"]There are quite a few completely different kinds of kiting. I see at least three types: Mage kiting with spells - mana costs should take care of that. Archer kiting with a bow - have limited ammo. Fighter/assassin dashing in and out - have an automatic attack against anyone breaking out of melee. And for everyone, have regeneration unable to heal more than N times your health per combat. Once it has run out, flash a message "Your

E. Water walking would be a good spell. Units with the natural ability to water walk could be classified as swimming. I'm thinking sharks and stuff. Nice if the swamps get the added element of bogs (shallow lakes). There are a couple of classes of ships, specifically you have river ships (those with a shallow draft, allowing them to navigate the shallows of the water) and deep water vessels that allow navigation of the deeper water. There could be special beach tiles that

[quote who="seanw3" reply="5" id="3236002"]You guys should update the spell to open 100 demon gates across the realm. I did a little modding and found it to be quite fun on a large scale. [/quote] I think that this should definitely be a separate spell... Let the lords of chaos rule.

I think alot of players research civics first to get the ability to rush. With this they are able to push out buildings and units a lot quicker, while they spend time to research other things. I don't necessarily see a disadvantage in researching other trees first. The Merchant Bazzar 1 only allowed in the world. If it is in the que of another nation, you can't build it unfortunately.

If so then I hope you have increased the gold bonuses from these buildings accordingly. If Merchants now give 1 gold x tax rate (ie 0 or 0.1 gold usually early game?) then t

The strategy of being able to snake your city has been there for many other 4x games with single tile cities. Although there were drawbacks to placing cities next to each other, one can still apply the ability to gain resources from both places. This game offeres a unique way to accomplish the same idea with a single city. That is a clever implementation of a mechanic of creating choke points AND resource grabs AND highways. The strategy does not come from where to place the initial hub, but
