[quote who="Tuidjy" reply="76" id="3287282"]I have won insane with four of the vanilla races - Gilden, Resoln, Yithril, Tarth, and Altar. Make that five. I would probably not be able to do it with three cities, and enjoy it with anyone but Altar.[/quote] Respect :) I understand your point, i just somehow dislike the idea of cities development stopping abruptly - yes, not even slowing down, but just stopping dead - and forcing me to do civic research. </p
[quote who="NaytchSG" reply="6" id="3287408"]How did Google Translate do on that, native Polish speakers?[/quote] Very funny and does not make any sense at all :)
[quote who="Tuidjy" reply="75" id="3287250"]Why would there be? From history, we know the fate of the great mercantile city states, and countries which did not expand their sphere of influence. It's a self-imposed handicap, and a challenge. You may as well demand that winning the game without using iron be as easy as when using it.[/quote] From history point of view, more cities you have more grow should be there - large successful empires attract
[quote who="Tuidjy" reply="73" id="3287195"]As far as I am concerned, this part is working VERY well. If player A is constrained by growth and player B by food, balance is just fine.[/quote] Disagree. This means that having as many cities as possible is the only valid strategy, in the sense of efficiency. I cannot choose to have 1-2 cities hoping first to get them strong and big before expanding, since they will be capped quickly by food limits. There is no advanta
[quote who="eobet" reply="16" id="3286839"]weak/medium/strong is absolute bullshit[/quote] That's not really true. Also you should be able to realize that those can never be precise - they are different armies/fractions around. What is easy for one faction, is not necessarily easy for another and vice versa. Bear can be weak for army of archers or mages, but is devastating for melee ones. Should it be hard/medium or easy? Hence, the best method is to check each unit
I just hope path-making will be addressed .... With a time, and toughest modes showing up, it gets more and more frustrated with troops going wrong way on a very wrong moment ...
Sean: is planetside any worth playing? I logged once in beta and i did not find it particularly appealing ...
Good advice for the beginners to Sean's mod: play Verga (or whatever you spell his name). He is really nice killing machine allowing early expansion. Wait till you see 8k+ hp :)

[quote who="seanw3" reply="24" id="3281452"]Oh it's a bug. It's one of those bugs the devs can't reproduce and thus can't fix. Why can't they reproduce it? Because the vanilla game has never been in a situation where someone has to attack a city twice. I don't think it's ever come up. [/quote] Not true. I have seen this error in vanilla quite often. Few times has been attacked by more than one army at the time. Also you
[quote who="ProteusJN" reply="1" id="3281356"]The only solution that I can think of at the moment is, to refrain from clicking tiles too far away (that is, not in direct distance, but in distance that your unit would travel, if you manually would select the path) and instead divide longer travels into lots of shorter legs[/quote] Solution is nice till you have cavalry and roads, then it becomes very, very tedious.

[quote who="rvgr" reply="1" id="3281210"]Turn off auto end turns?[/quote] He already did.
I think, personally, that mp is quite impossible for FE for a simple reason: auto-resolve of battles ruins game's balance. Hence, all battles have to be played on a tactical level. This causes simultaneous turns to be impossible, and you have to play one person after another .... Second, devs are not going to spend huge amount of resources to include option that would be appreciated by small group of people. If over 100k people bought a game, and couple hundred are interested in l

"Pearl Harbor" (kicked out with group of friends for too many comments) and recently "The Master". Love "Blair Witch Project" though :) Suffered through "Red Thine Line", and i refuse to go to any movie by this director ("tree of life" being the last one)

I remember some initial problems running FE on new windows 8 (i am not sure if i remember correctly, but i think they are the same as in OP), upgrading windows solved them.

[quote who="seanw3" reply="726" id="3277877"]Also, I have learned never to decline a tech trade offer. As long as you are also accepting those trades, you can mostly keep up with the AI. In fact, a Diplomat Sov can seriously game diplomacy to get tons of tech. [/quote] Never refuse those either. But, here again, depends on what kind of difficulty you are playing. If the world is such a dangerous place you cannot go around looking for other guys. In my present game AI cannot find me ei

[quote who="AlLanMandragoran" reply="722" id="3277715"] Sean - personally I don't see a problem with HP bonuses on the higher difficulty. I chose insane for a reason - I knew what I was getting into. I intend on playing your mod on your map with your recommended settings in the next week and give some feedback. I guess what I'm saying - I like seeing 3K+ HP 4 stacks of corpse spiders. Makes me crap my pants. Not that I like crapping my pants... wait, maybe I do...[/quo
I forgot: about research - sure you do not need other techs... For instance, you do not need more soldiers in one troop, nor armies of 9 units.... That's also a problem - you need very, very advance civic technologies to field really effective army. I just have seen an army of trolls having together 8k of hp ... I just wonder how much hp they will in the end game.... One more issue: regarding recovering hp. I think, at least in the cities, it should be by perce
