Although I think i seen the bihimiri fissure expand to six tiles before it got overrun.

I don't think I ever seen that part of chasm before XD And nah, cloud walk only allows you teleport to tiles under your control. Otherwise Air Archmages would just gather up their armies then blitzkrieg enemy capitals and raze them to the ground easily XD And yes it's under air magic. Unless flying units gets implemented and can carry an hero, that treasure site is forever unreachable lol. edit: btw I liked that huge

[quote who="GFireflyE" reply="8" id="3479525"] Quoting Hellions, reply 5I completely disagree because it's not being compensated later on, experience doesn't scale. The less you get at the beginning is not being balanced by getting more later on, comparatively speaking with LH 1.6. Clearing monster lairs for such diminishing returns, especially after playing this game since the FE days, is frustrating beyond words. And maybe I'm the lone voice in the night since I'

[quote who="davrovana" reply="33" id="3478521"] I am working on a mod to replace the mop-up phase with sudden empowerment of surviving AIs. Essentially, a turn 300 or 350 event where enemy difficulty will spike, making all surviving players a threat, even if they have only 1 city left. The idea being, you want to hurry and win by a set turn limit, otherwise you'll be caught in a new, 'assymetrical' war where the AI is likely to pound you, unless you rut
