couple more... + Ability to cycle through all towns , not just the idle ones. (The Pgup/Pgdn only cycles through some not all... not sure if that is a bug or not) + Ability to choose which unit is the LEADER of a stack. (you'd think that is one of the benefits of being a sov/king) + Make weapon techs improve upon existing items. (ie, a warhammer higher tech weapon, should not be worse than a Mace, lower tech weapon)

This is 100% reproduceable. Try it out. Maybe instead of crashing the game, the game should provide a warning that it will not allow a sov to imbue with it's last 3 essence. This is late in the mid game of a large map and my Sov had 17 mana so it was no evident to me immediately that it was my last three but I have three shards and several Temples of Essence. SD Please add this to your bugs to be fixed list along with the Kingdom/Mace/warhammer Tech tree. I

When I tried the game CTD. [e digicons]:S[/e] Am I to take this as the Dev's saying what the hell were you thinking? That's your Sov!!!!![e digicons]X|[/e] [e digicons]X|[/e] Well I was thinking it would be a really good caster champ and I had room in my stack and I was not to far from levelling my sov... Anywho has anyone else experienced this one? I'll load the savegame and see if it is repeatable.

So is it Roleplay/aethetics that you choose Battle Axe over Broadsword or Mace or Warhammer? if not, can you describe your rationale?
I have taken in a high dex/str champion and make him my Sov's personal bodyguard with all the best melee equipment. On level up I increase HP and Str/Dex on a round robin rotating basis. For others if they have a city stat like increases food/farm production by 20% then I park them in my best food producing city and they become the head of the department of agriculture, and also an temporary champion equipment warehouse to trade items amongst other hero st

I don't play empire but feel free to respond empire players as well, but please state what faction. I'm trying to understand what tech level most folks spend the majority of their games at weapon-wise. I tend to grab Maces+ Leather+ longbows by mid game and have been wanting to get better weapons. So for 1.08, w hat is the primary melee weapon you kingdom players are teching up to for your nonhero troops?
Elemental Forums
Sure, stick a champion that you are not going to develop/adventure with in that town to be your warehouse so to speak...

Prior to 1.08 I could not play on large map and even medium maps were a chore wading through all the OOM errors (win 7 x64) Since 1.08 im nearly 300 turns into a large map game and not a single OOM yet (knock on wood). So much improved - yes
I think you are over-reacting, but then time will tell for sure... Then there is the multiple requests I've asked for acknowledgement or clarification of why in 1.08 the Weapon Tech tree was broke (Maces being better then the next higher tech weapon) and I only get crickets from SD... so then again maybe you have a point...
Elemental Forums
hey Kyro or any SD employee? Can you comment on this issue? Is it a known Bug or by design, if by design, why?
[quote who="divvu80" reply="20" id="2784426"]Squares can be easily linked to a matrix. And that is easily understandable by an AI. [/quote] Not sure you understand what today's AI is capable of (or not cabale of) if you think AI can understand a matrix. If you mean a square matrix is a simpler construct/logic to program into the AI than a Hex matrix then you are only on the right track. However if you think of a Hex matrix as a matrix itself but each element is a
I turned off in game help advice and Janusk no longer shows up... your mileage may vary.
Elemental Forums
Yes, yes and YES! please!
[quote who="Delmoroth" reply="6" id="2783562"]People say you get crappy kids from Janusk because he is a low class champion. I wish there was some way to tell which ones were good. [/quote] Look at the champs stats... sort of like a background check... how strong and dexterous, intelligent etc are they? The higher the stats and better the starting gear they come with the higher quality they are...some(not all) of this is subjective.
Need more information... What units are in the stack? Can you provide a Screen shot?
Are you playing a save game from the 1.07 patch or earlier and now have the 1.08 patch installed? If so, I'd recommend to start a new game from scratch to see if this still occurs.

I was asking about the Tech Tree for regular troops... you have a point on the heroes, but I'm asking about the rank and file military and last time I was in the military they wanted all the same look...it was called uniform. I am asking for the Rationale or acknowledgement that its a bug and will be addressed. I certainly hope it was an oversight, though it kills the motivation I would have for going higher in teh weapons tech tree and seems really quite dumb the way
[quote who="Robert Hentschke" reply="14" id="2784358"]Would it help if we called the squares tetragons? It's easier for devs and modders to work with right angles and squares don't have any real disadvantage if diagonal movement counts as 1.4 moves . This game has floats and not just integers. What's the problem? [/quote] Does Diagonal movement count as 1.4 moves? I understand your point howeve
As a Kingdom player, I use Caravans first to build roads and second to farm food. I send them to build the road to the destination of my choice then disband them and build another to a new destination once I have my roads then I build one and send it to my farm/food producing city and use it to make food(as dumb as that sounds it works).
Hex maps are more nuetral and harder to exploit distances than square tile maps but if the head-guy does not like hexes, then that's that. Live with squares. But please fix the Kingdom Tech Tree.
1.09 sept 30th targeted...sorry to hear you are crashing have you updated your system's Device Drivers lately? Did you start a new game with 1.08 or are you playing a 1.07 savegame? 1.08 so far has enabled me to play on large maps previously I was restricted to small and tiny maps, so I know some fixes went in.
I can see Channelers aging slower than the general non-chaneller populace, however wouldn't this just mean they live longer looking younger when quite old? Do the Devs make the Sov die at a certain age? If not then why not let a clock that measures game years be uniform for all... I mean can you imagine if the Canadian clocks and calendars ran half as fast as thos in the US? Just sayin... it's not as big a deal and broken Techs in the kingdom tree but it is annoying and di
For Kingdom faction which researches the Mace and then the Warhammer and the Warhammer is 1 of 2 preeq's for the Light Plate this makes no sense at all to have to research an inferior weapon tech. I am assuming this is a bug? If not what is the rationale for it? Please for the love of god and all that is good on earth explain or fix this flaw. I'll even provide possible fixes: + Make the Warhammer Attack higher than 6 like I

Multiple Elemental Planes of existence not unlike Myrorr might be an interesting twist on an old concept for an expansion in 2011 but not this year, this game is not yet polished, some of the techs are out of order the AI needs more elbow grease, etc... Please do not take any of my bashing on Elemental as I'm Trashing this game, I am not, I like Elemental, If I did not like it I'd not be on these forums as much as I am... I really truely want Elemental to be better then MoM and the AO
