Major issue imo. Landmarks and monsters also tend to be distributed in pairs.

Wha, so the factions just look different? (edit: ah i see, just global strengths and weaknesses) How's the AI / multi-player? To be honest my time is more valuable than money, but the combination of streamlined UI and game mechanics coupled with good AI / multi-player (and what appears to be decent immersion), could be right up my alley. They seem to have gotten enough right such that playing it safe for launch might not have been a bad idea, but so much of the f

[quote who="Heavenfall" reply="4" id="3418546"] 3000 posts on the beta forum, doesn't look "dead" to me? That's pretty damn good for an indie game in closed beta. Edit: It was released the 14th apparently. I'll wait for a sale or very good reviews: 30 USD is AAA+ pricing nowadays.[/quote] True the beta forums have received a few posts a day but not much in the way of reviews, which I thought somebody in this community might be able to provid

[quote who="Mistwraithe" reply="16" id="3412686"] Monsters move first solves the most obvious problem of monsters missing the AI, but the underlying problem still exists and will be visible with the AI struggling to target each others armies.[/quote] I think the reason this issue is more prevalent with monsters is because they can only move 1 tile per turn... I wouldn't be able to catch anybody either. Edit: otherwise, if you look at Frogboy's AI a

I used to play FE with set to 2 or higher, and not only was the strategic map more fun, but also - mobs had no problem catching moving targets. Just food for thought.

Have your AI actively update a table that contains ALL units' pathing coordinates, and pass this to MoveUnitsforPlayer(): checking for combat interceptions before enacting. The amount of the table that needs to be passed/checked could be limited by adding a relative location threshold equivalent to the highest possible movement range, and/or by organizing the table cartographically. However, I don't know what parts of your AI are actively computed during the player's

Nothing. I usually just roll my own factions/games, but while starting up the game tonight to try out the new patch the idea popped into my head to see if there was a new game of the month.

Also, rename the DLC's to: Legendary Lands Legendary Quests Legendary Loot So after discontinuing the original FE we'll have: Elemental: Fallen Enchantress - Legendary Heroes Elemental: Fallen Enchantress - Legendary Lands, Quests, Loot.. wait for it... Elemental: Fallen Enchantress - Legendary Next Expansion (Magic, Monsters..) And not mutually exclusive: Elemental: RPG

I cannot stand the cartoon civ 4 characters and most ipad games have opted for the too cute look as ell. blah!

Just change the title on Steam to "Elemental: Fallen Enchantress - Legendary Heroes". Any new expansions become "Elemental: Fallen Enchantress - Whatever". As soon as the next patch goes live (with the FE scenario), discontinue the original FE. How did we forget the "hyphen"? Edit, just saw this: [quote who="Frogboy" reply="60" id="3408945"] Well in the near-term we're going to keep with Elemental: Fallen Enchantress -Legendary Hero

It is - "Elemental: Legendary Heroes". (at least in my mind) You saved the Elemental brand by giving away FE & LH, don't make that a waste. Payed-for marketing goes nowhere near as far as the natural publicity from philanthropy, especially righting admitted wrongs. You've admirably stuck to your guns thus far, don't stop now. While FE's sales may not have been as substantial as LH's, it's your work on Fallen Enchantress that

I'm pretty sure WinRT is just intended as a stepping stone attempt at gaining a foothold in the mobile industry while it's still possible, until hardware gets up to par (for 1 OS to rule them all), and agree that anyone would be foolish to develop for it. TBH I would be highly surprised if MS wasn't already throwing a ton of resources into a UNIX based ecosystem. Every hardware manufacturer on the planet is. The current slump in their ingenuity may actually be
