To fix teleport, it must first be possible to counter it. Otherwise short of making it cost so much it cannot no one will use it the cost will not offset its effectiveness.

[quote who="Tserrof" reply="9" id="2797881"]Have you played MOM? Did you always go for the Paladins because it was the best choice? Never tried to win with the swordsmen and archers or cavalry? If you only play one way then you are a parrot or a monkey. Your real complaint would seem to be that in order to win on higher levels you have to doomstack to overcome megahitpoints. Which I suggested outfitting the leaders for free, buffing the armies for free, and free s

[quote who="Bellack" reply="115" id="2797412"]Well if you are going to a global mana pool then please do it in a simalar fashion to AOW:SM. Where every turn mana producing resources and the Soverign generate so much mana a turn and it goes to the pool. So if you had total mana generation per turn of 50 then that would go to the pool and build up each turn unless you cast spells or have upkeep which drains the pool. It would really suck if the mana did not accumulate each turn but simply

Reply to Alleviating "First Strike" in WOM Ideas Elemental Forums

I might be good if units got a chance for a 'free hit' (that might use AP, but if so it should be optional to take the chance) whenever an enemy moves out of an adjacent square (even if it is moving into another adjacent square), making it hard them from running passed the front line a beat up on archers and spell casters. Then flanking would be going around the front line as it usually refers to in large battles.

They should implement 'dowery' or payment to decide who gets to have the couple, so the side losing a champion gains something in the short term. Also, every thing should be in one screen for diplomatic interactions to allow more complex trades / deals.

Reply to Late-game ranged weapons in WOM Ideas Elemental Forums

Making distance (and maybe height) a factor and including obstructions (which could include units, even friendly ones), would greatly help in making archery not overpowered. In this regard Age of Wonders: Shadow Magic does well, and it makes possitioning troops way more important than most other games. It also shows the modifiers (height, range, and obstructions) for your attack and the path the projectile will take / what it may hit instead of the intended targe

The only things that would need to be added are: a method to select a tactical map for an encounter (maybe possible, but if so it is not used) and a way to limit who can be in the encounter. Multi-level can be emulated by having a dialog to select to proceed to the next layer I would imagine.

The advatage of allowing the placement of troops during a 'tactics' phase over assigning outside of battle is then each tactical map can define where the troops can be placed, which can be a good thing for TC maps with interesting designs.
