Agree about tech progression. Have experience the defend/shield delay many times. Haven't experience the others, perhaps because I'm on Brad's special Friday build.

Reply to We need your opinion re: city build mode zoom options in FE Beta Elemental Forums

I don't really like the city zoom mode. Whatever the default is, I'll probably just keep it off and go merrily on my way. As for placing city building manually, I'm ok with that too -- just be careful not to slip up with ports, watermills & lumberyards that seem to need to be in specific locations.

Reply to [Suggestion] Caravan setup should be automated in FE Beta Elemental Forums

Simplest way to make trade/caravans better than WoM would be to just bring back a limit of 3 caravans per city. They really have improved caravans a lot in FE by making the ones that haven't set up routes yet show on the left side of the screen, by showing the trade-to city or "none" in the tool-tip, and by making caravans re-spawn after they are "destroyed" by monsters. Caravan management would be ok with those changes if there weren't so many more caravans. And t

[quote who="Frogboy" reply="15" id="3061032"]g.err implies you were loading a saved game within a game? Is this correct? And you're running Windows XP SP3?[/quote] Yes to both. But I can load game within game pretty well in either 0.75 or the slipstream, except for the game I updated in the middle off, which where my errors came from. My bad for mixing versions.

If I highlight an enemy to attack, order the attack and complete the attack, the icon changes to the "you can't attack" icon correctly. However, if I don't move the mouse, when the turn ends and it becomes my turn to attack again, the icon is still displayed as "you can't attack" until I move the icon off the unit and back again. This is true for any circumstance where you don&#3

Not yet, but plan to upgrade in the next 6 months, sooner if FE seems slow on my current rig. (waiting for Ivy Bridge, full range of AMD 7000-series gpus, and for HP prices to go back to normal). Absolutely more likely to buy a game if it is 64-bit capable.

Reply to AI vs. Kir-Talax Episode 2 in FE Sneak Peeks Elemental Forums

[quote]In a game with several players set to challenging, winning becomes something that involves serious skill since the AI will make it a point to work together.[/quote] That bit worries me a little. In other 4x games, it irritates me that the AI players band together against the human instead of seeking their own best interest. I'd rather have challenging AI be smarter, 2nd choice is bonus to hit points, gold, etc, etc.
