[quote]A Dev responce to this would be Awesome.[/quote] A dev responce is always awesome. but, they are too busy making the game. I've come to the conclusion that city size should not cap as low as it currently does. I mean, I was saying before 5 spaces would be good between cities, because you could build out 3 spaces no problem. Now in 1B, I can hardly build out 2 spaces because I never have enough house room to increase my city size

Man, my cities keep capping out at extremely small sizes. I'm like "good location - build 2 farms" and its like "guess what, you can't expand now because you get no houses on that farm. HA HA HA HA"

[quote] One of the things Win 7 does specificly is run in "XP Mode". Imagine that, it has a Xp Mode, but no Vista Mode...hmmm.

Windows 7 runs on vista drivers (vista doesn't really run on XP drivers, and XP doesn't really run on 2000 drivers. Win 7 runs on all vista drivers I've found). To my understanding, XP 64-bit didn't ru

Reply to …It is time to discuss….DEATH!!!! (or at least combat) in Elemental Dev Journals Elemental Forums

I'm a terrain and special ability kind of guy. I think just attack, defense, speed, and hitpoints is all you need. Then certain monsters might have a special ability to strike 1st, and then only be struck back if the target doesn't die. Or perhaps gain an attack bonus when on a certain kind of terrain. Special abilities can get out of hand pretty quickly, but if the combat is setup to listen to them, they should be easier to implement later

perhaps somehow assign somebody who is usually in there to post big news from #elemental on twitter? I'm not sure how else you could do it really.

Reply to A Question about Map Size in War of Magic Elemental Forums

in terms of city count, cities I feel are much to close together in the current form of the game. Being that your city physically expands, I would say t hat no less than 5 tiles between cities should be the standard (rather than 3, which is the current) Possibly 6-8 would actually still be fair (though 8 would be a pretty massive block. That might be pushing it for smal

Careful, wizards might show up and throw a fit. They hold a patent on "turning a card 90 degrees" as a game mechanic, so I can only imagine what else they might try to claim. :P
