They could divide XP by the square-root of the number of champs, not by the actual number of champs, which I think is what they do now. Then with 2 champs each gets about 71%, with 3 each get about 58%, with 4 each gets 50%, etc. The total experience gained goes up as the number of champs goes up, which I think is realistic. Agree that 4 items per champ is low.

I don't like the limit. I'd be fine with no limit except scarcity &/or price of really worthwhile items. I think strong champs are the whole point of this genre, and they have over-nerfed them in beta-2 with the item-limit and the XP changes.

I think it was on-next-turn. Hadn't been playing long since last clean load -- usually I get farther before things get corrupted. crash zip http://dl.dropbox.com/u/8928343/FallenEnchantress0_86-2012-03-02T20-23-41-781.zip debug.err http://dl.dropbox.com/u/8928343/debug-no-reason.err

FWIW, I'm like capturing 2nds & 3rds of these buildings, and I could live with or without being able to build my own after I have captured one. But clearing the building queue when a city is taken makes sense whether it is building something special or just a slave pen. Haven't seen what Svaca33 reports.

Is the impassible gate a bug or do I need to do something else?[/quote] I've seen it in both .86 campaigns. Per Publius, I guess I won't drive myself crazy trying to break in.

A few issues 1: In my current campaign, several turns ago I had two of those quest open (Abeix and the city that gives the spell that give tons of hit points) plus one other quest. Now both the green-border quests are gone and I only have the other one. But the quests are NOT completed. The green borders still remain on both territories. I haven't even gone into Abeix's land, but the control-U emergency cheat (special just to verify before postin

Don't give up. They work on crash reports even if they don't respond to them in the forums. I'm in a special position to confirm this because of a post by FB early in the beta with video & sound showing what they do with crash reports and explaining how important they are. The report he was working on was from me, but as best I recall they never replied to my crash-report post.

But there are still times where you might want to use a special non-upgrade design. Besides the weight mentioned above, the top-level magic weapons & armor take so much crystal that you might not have enough and will have to train 2nd-best equipment or train nothing at all. And I think there are some dubious choices in the sequence where the 2nd best weapon might be better in some way than the "best" auto-upgrade one.
