[quote who="Lord Xia" reply="50" id="2940684"]The Naval question is a good one. The game needs some kind of mechanic to be able to travel to other lands. Always having to play a pangaea type world gets boring. Certainly it can be done, Other much older games have done it. I would like to hear from Kael or Toby what is in store for the Navy. Islands with rare sites, water monsters, pirates, there can be all type of fun shit to do! [/quote]

hard to say whether a complete tech tree at the beginning is good or not. sots has a hidden random tree, for example. good.. so you don't get frustrated at the lack of a particular tech deep in.. (so you keep starting games to make sure you get the tech) bad.. can possibly get a bit same old same old..

.... as in waiting for the book to get to the bit that gets interesting.. or to wait for the next book to get written (nevermind published)? will it get to a situation where the book has to catch up with tv shows? that'll be funny.

[quote who="Lord Xia" reply="49" id="2918443"]Brad will find a way to keep his promise, there is no doubting that. If he has to put it on a disc, send it in the mail and lick the stamps himself, he will find a way to keep his word. I trust Brad. [/quote] ... no doubt there's a reason he keeps bees.

obviously haven't considered that he's been chained and impaled with a sword onto something... then probably frozen (not necessarily ice) with magic or some such... and locked away somewhere... until the idiot adventurers walked in, broke the sword when trying to pull it out and let the "thing" loose.

you know... it should be dead easy to have 1 world difficulty toggle and 1 ai difficulty toggle on the same 1st page. no one gets confused that way. it's also easier to change 1 setting than say.. 9 settings.. people can always go and change individual ones on later screens.

wait.... what do you mean roads? i've seen maps start with roads in new games going back to 1.09ish i think. is that carried over from old games or some such (eg... i don't know... playing a certain map meant something is changed on it and stored.. beats me why) or do those maps have roads anyway? or are you talking about stuff that's sort of implemented already?

difference between homm and elemental is that you have stacks of gazzilions of units. lots of hp. unlike elemental... so unless you up the hp of everything... lots.. they will just meet a few spiders/wolves and all die due to simple attrition. take your average starting sov. how much hp has it got? by all means change.. but beware unintended consequences.

depends on what's in your squad. your fastest thingy is as fast as your slowest... so you can make squads with 4 movements and squads with 3 (and that's not even counting mounts).. mixing gender / skill / etc with gear to give the desired effect...
