[quote who="tjashen" reply="2" id="2836016"] A game slider that controlled how frequent the monsters appear would be nice. That way, those of us who get a kick out of monster hunting can set it high, while others who don't want to be bothered can choose a lower setting.[/quote] Yes. This.

Reply to Still can't easily select a city in 1.09P in WOM Support Elemental Forums

[quote quoting="post"] 3) Also, when I build something I really need to know what is already built in the city. I not only would like to see the list of buildings but it would be very helpful to know that the city already has a workshop or whatever, so showing that in the build menu would help. For example, it could put a 1 on the selection or something and the tooltip could tell me "You already have one workshop in this city" or something to that effect. [/quote]

I've now been "stuck" twice when trying to flee. I get up into the top-left corner and one of my characters is standing on the big rock tile. After they move, I am unable to pass turn, attack, move, hit escape, or anything. Just stuck on my turn with nothing able to be done. This happen to anyone else?

[quote who="Frogboy" reply="45" id="2829927"]Here's my list of observations as a game developer on the game and as the lead designer: ***The world is still too bland and uninteresting in general. Need more quests Need more notable locations Need more interesting land tiles - the land is just boring The monsters sit around waiting to be killed The monsters are fairly moronic. The wildlands need to feel a lot scarier. Need a lot better dialog<

Reply to Archery still overpowered in War of Magic Elemental Forums

This is why we need the equipment to have various advantages and disadvantages for each type of attack, as well as a research for different types of troop skills. That way you could design a troop more resistant to archers. For example, you could research tower shields, and then research a turtle skill or a shield wall skill so that the troop is more resistant to arrow fire (while perhaps being more susceptible to other kinds of attack).

Reply to A List of ‘Positives’ in Elemental Dev Journals Elemental Forums

I, too, like how cities develop and are unique. One suggestion there comes from visiting old cities in Europe. As they grow, they expand beyond their present walls. It would be really cool if when a city levels up, it expands beyond its current walls, so eventually a large city would have multiple layers like growth rings on a tree. I really like the unit create/customization. It's a bit like Moo/Moo2. It would be very cool if more options were added. Once weapons, armo
