[quote who="The_Biz" reply="10" id="3458881"] seems like it's a civ 5 mod rather than a new game kind of like colonization was for civ 4[/quote] This appears to be probable. Which is a shame....really don't like the way civ 5 took the game. I do like colonization though....will have to spool that up again now that I've been reminded of it. :)
Wild shot in the dark here but this could be your video card overheating. Laptop forcing shutdowns to avoid critical failures? LH is very graphic intensive...took out my card (though in my defense, my card was 6 years old)
[quote who="Mistwraithe" reply="5" id="3458906"] Quoting GFireflyE, reply 2I really miss building upkeep costs. Having to plan out your economy around what buildings you want to build in what cities was always an interesting challenge to overcome. I totally disagree. I much prefer the Civ 4 model to the Civ 3 model where the optimal build for most of your cities if often nothing (or just troops) because the maintenance costs of buildings means that only a few cities sho
[quote who="Alstein" reply="169" id="3458805"] The expanded gameplay change I currently want the most in LH is individualized heroes, which I believe should be backportable from the next game (I think you said that was a feature) Given how that game turns out, I might want more features from that game backported to LH, many of them sound exactly like things I added or changed in LH.

[quote who="Frogboy" reply="162" id="3458698"] So here are some results from this discussion (all subject to change so that if conditions change I'm not held to any of this ) Leader's Pack DLC (previously referred to as Spouses Pack) release date is ~April 24th LH 1.7 likely in June, some AI tweaks, pathfinding, eye candy fixes, diplomacy tweaks Expanded Worlds DLC (new map stamps and new tactical battle maps) target date is ~June LH 2.0

[quote who="Island Dog" reply="121" id="3457700"] The update is currently being worked on. There's a whole process of development, QA, etc. that something like that has to go through, so sometimes things take longer than expected, or something arises that causes a delay.

[quote who="XWerewolfX" reply="117" id="3457623"]Give us something Stardock. I have this shitty feeling that this is going the way of FE 1.4... [/quote] SD can't do that....else steam has to give us access to LH 1.4. I find LH 1.5 to be unplayable with the beastmaster bug and the building rotation bug.
The only reason I switched to win 7 64-bit was because I purchased an SSD drive......which doesn't play nice with XP. All my software is still 32-bit. I've had way more problems with win 7 in the short 4 monthes of owning it than I ever had with win XP and the 12+ years of owning it. I'm not against the new OS....oh wait....win 8 is the new OS now....and I am against that. I'm not against win 7; it's ju

I've had the "is LH a military driven game" conversation before in another recent thread. While I agree that a military presence is required for every victory condition to be met (yes even the master quest needs some military), the miltary victory condition requires elements to varying degrees of teching, questing, and diplomacy to be successful as well. Thus, I do not attribute LH to being solely a war game. It requires mulitple facets. I'd love to se
[quote who="econundrum1" reply="37" id="3457357"]How will spouses work for custom soverigns? Will we get to make them or will they just not have them? [/quote] I would presume that the spouses are accociated with the race type ... not the sovereign name. Since you need to select a race type in sovereign creation, the spouse would go with it... That's a presumption though.
[quote quoting="post"]I'm seriously going to make a sovereign named Derek Paxton and send him to his death OVER AND OVER AGAIN in protest. Do not give me the "it's coming soon" stuff either.

[quote who="EvilMaxWar" reply="8" id="3456100"] I used to hate Steam, I boycotted them for years. But I have changed my mind lately. When you think about it they have done some great things, and they fixed a lot of the stuff I did not like about the client. They are also pushing Linux forward into the game market. So they get my approval now. [/quote] They'll get my approval if the player can choose to not require steam to start games. Obviou

LH is the only exception because I bought the game before it required steam to play and I trust that SD will offer the game still if steam goes under. Can't say the same for other distributers.
Looks very interesting. Will have to check out some reviews when I get home today. Not saying it'll replace LH....but it may quench my 4x thirst until LH 2.0 is released...
