Reply to Brad’s Beta 3-B Walkthru Part 2 in Elemental Dev Journals Elemental Forums

I agree with Tridus and hope mana and wisdom get tied together in some fashion. It could be 1-1 and have a tech or two, or even a structure(s), enhance the ratio. I like the aspect that essence is the root of magic and by imbuing another you give them the power to use magic. And that it allows the most vital magic and summons.. But it wouldnt bother me if you still could pop a point into it or not when you increase levels. If it isnt tied directly to your mana

Reply to FIIIINNNALLLLY! in Elemental Dev Journals Elemental Forums

The world difficulty effect is great! should add alot too immersion. A couple of suggestions: Have humanoids & intelligent npc's have a chance to ask for a payoff to avoid sacking a town. Animals maybe would destroy some food resource or housing or pub (place food might be) Monsters might just be feeling a bit nasty and your town has the misfortune of being in the area. Also maybe a small chance that grows each time you kill one o

Magic Interface in WOM Ideas Elemental Forums

My attempt to spiff it up a little. I do like much about it but it is a little clumsy. To access: When you are on a caster or your Sovereign just use the existing spell tab. When you are on a city or clicking about the map have a similar spell tab in close to the same location if not the same spot. When clicked, the Spell Tab, immediatly brings up the spellbook. Minor spellbook changes.

[806] Inn Issue in WOM BETA Builds Elemental Forums

Early on (I had just researched mining) my Sovereigns group went into a humble inn. I received the message that I might not be ready for what is inside. When I clicked the ok button the message repeated 6 or 7 times then I was given the escort nobleman quest.

[suggestion] Fortify / set watch in WOM Ideas Elemental Forums

Now that we can fortify units, It would be nice if on the following turns you would have an option to set a watch. Doing so would increase your sight radius by the movement of the units fortifying. Would represent patrolling that would naturally occur. The button for fortify could turn into a tower symbol or something, and if chosen a little wood platform could be added to the palisade graphic. It should probably cost some materials 3-5 or so.

Reply to Designing units in Elemental discussion in Elemental Dev Journals Elemental Forums

I like option C or A. If and when an upgrade feature for units is incorporated (ala GalCiv) then either of these methods should work fine and enable you to get back on track when the resource is resecured via force or diplomacy. With Option A most players will probably have several alternatives already designed and might want to resort to one of those. Redesigning a new unit wouldnt be that much of a chore, and is kind of fun. I would bet a good % would do this.

Poison & Disease, would be nice additions, coming from monsters or magic. Also adding in Cure Disease as a spell! Would possibly be hairy fighting a zombified Skath.

[805] Movement in WOM BETA Builds Elemental Forums

When using end turn button to move a group along its path. If the target square is a goodie and your group moves only one of its 2 squares the entire movement seems to be comsumed. When I right click to move on those items the group maintains the balance of its movement.
