In going over your list seanw3 , I really like the fact that your cities should NEVER be idle. I would definately be in favor of Stardock seriously considering this balancing proposal.

lol. Unfortunately (or fortunately...which ever way you look at it), this game screams 'one more turn' WAY more than Civ ever did. You're batteries will die on you, and you'll be like "what the? I just charged them". Then you realize 6 hours has passed. XD

[quote who="Kongdej" reply="31" id="3219089"] Now this Firefly is just putting words in my mouth. No I am not advocating essence be rarer, I don't mind essence, I was saying Heavenfall's idea was interesting since it would be a balancing factor in starting location and essence. [/quote] Whoops. Sorry. Reading your posts in this thread gave me the impression that essence was too powerful for you. My apologies if that is in fact not the case. &nb

Most/Least Favorite Concepts of FE in FE Beta Elemental Forums

Good Morning Recent threads have had me grinding my gears as to what are the most admirable concepts FE has to offer so far: I propose the following: List the 3 best and the 3 worst concepts you find about FE to date. I'll go first: Top 3 Shards: Love how they're impact scales spells and abilities. Love the variety available. Kinda miss how spells could 'fizzle' when in proximity to certain shards.

Reply to Balance of city enchants in Fallen Enchantress Elemental Forums

Good Morning Not going to say much about the individual spells and how they should or should not be balanced because, quite frankly, that topic can't be discussed to any great success until the topic of availability of essence is resolved. Over all the threads I've read and opinions for difference people online here, I'm a little surprised to see a divide on the topic, considering that all have given fantastic ideas over the past several monthes. <

[quote who="Supreme Shogun" reply="21" id="3219023"] This sounds like an exaggeration. I've had to kill 2 or 3 things to get from level 1 to 2. Do you by chance have potential or some ability that gives bonus to xp? Since these fights are near death experiences in the beginning, I consider it fair reward. [/quote] Zero exaggeration. I keep 'notes of significance' when I play my games (see my game threads). My ja

Casting that spell costs mana. Wouldn't want it to automatically disenchant when I have a food-building on the way and wish the spell to be maintained.

'Not so' random events thread in FE Beta Elemental Forums

Good Morning Kinda a question directed towards Brad & Co here: Recent threads have given a strong, future presence of random events in FE. [e digicons]:thumbsup:[/e] Thumbs up on that by the way. However, is Stardock considering 'not so' random events to also occur within the sandbox mode? What I'm thinking of is a set of events would be based off a primary rpg story arc and would periodically trigger based off of 'seasons' or

Reply to Population: the forgotten resource in FE Beta Elemental Forums

DexCisco is making a few good points, whether or not it's 'the' idea to pursue. Fact is, with unrest linear, there is no incentive to queue buildings that decrease that unrest. If you are comfortable with a 22% production penalty...which actaully isn't that bad all considering, then there are a who

All these delicious bugs, you should make an elaborate explanation of them, post debugs, screenshots and savegames where possible (If youre lasy, drop the screenshots). A lot of these are old bugs, like the animation for growth sometimes shrinks the target (but the target still gets the bonus power, and penalty to dodge). You should specify what sounds are missing from combat, that would make it much

Continuing where I left off. Wiped out Yithral; systematically and easily. [Bug] Picked up Verga as a champ whereas he was collecting bracers. Useless. Magnar declared War on me as soon as Yithral was wiped out. Guess he was trying to make good of a situation. Thing is, my 3 champs will wipe out anything they throw at me. Champs are too powerful in this current build. (Either that or troops and monsters are not powerful enough….eitherway.)

Reply to [0.952] GFireflyE's FE Game #6 Notes in FE Beta Elemental Forums

Good Morning. Started playing same game again, next day. Had to declare war on Altar and Yithral so that they wouldn’t beat me to a city location in the ‘north-west’ on the previous image shown. Worth the wars, as I now have two more cities…and something to do. Altar has been a real pain, slipping in from behind and taking over two cities. Had to take them back and was tricky doing so since I never really needed to focus on troop building yet. Yithral h

[0.952] UI question when gaining items in FE Beta Elemental Forums

Good Morning So I've got an 'how does everyone feel' question to ask: When completing a quest, combat, or random event, you have the oppertunity to pick up some loot, often one piece of which is equipment or an item of some kind. When that window pops up, you receive two options: a) Equip b)Ok I'm fine with the second option. However, the first option actually equips the item in question. Can/should there be an option to simply e

Shoot. Was hoping 0.952 was going to increase the frequency of random events. I'm hoping to see 1 every 30-50 turns. Sometimes none...sometimes 2! In know, in a game of 1000 turns. that's going to mean at least 33 random events per game....so you'd probably want a database of 100 to pull from...200 to 'keep the interest'. Really looking forward to see some of the stuff Stardock has come up with (or...cough cough...borrowed from us helpful beta te

Reply to I don't want to feel like I'm cheating when I make a custom Sovereign/Race in FE Beta Elemental Forums

So be it. I don't mind being wrong with an idea. But the current system doesn't advocate a unique set of factions either. Gilden, Tarth, Trog, Krax, and Altar all have their uniqueness marginalized by items, abilities, and equipment that you can obtain in game. All that I was saying is that they should all be in the same basket. Either have them all marginalzied...or all unique...but not some in one camp and some in the other. And the game is about essence.
