Reply to Elemental: Interim PRE-day 0 update in Elemental Dev Journals Elemental Forums

Im so happy this is here...feels like ive been waiting like 2 years for it!! On the other side, im sad because I so enjoyed the whole process of watching the beta and the game transform to what it is today. I loved the little screen of characters you had and the cheesy pictures that looked like the old Dos games. Hopefully if another chance to beta one of you awesome games comes along, I can do it again, because honestly, it was the best beta I have ever been in. Ive d

Strange, you were ranked at 666(not a good number in my book) and they were 387 and they won? Is that a bug of some sort? Thats almost double what they are, but perhaps the dragon was the most of it, and if the dragon died that would explain it.

I think Lord Frog said in one post, you will also be able to find some. Not sure if that means you have to research the quests for them or if its under magic and then you find them.

Reply to Who's your sovereign? in War of Magic Elemental Forums

My soverign will be Fluke Threndor Knight, who in an other dimension had his world crushed beneath the weight of evil and darknsess, after the Titans came there and took the worlds magic. His brother, Dallas and Silver were also lost, along with his beloved Samantha Eagle. He was the the King of the Tri-Kingdom, which was made of 3 castles, each at the point of a triangle. To the frozen north there was Castle Freedom, ruled by his brother Dallas Knight, a paladin of

Reply to 4 days before the official release, reminiscing about MOM in War of Magic Elemental Forums

Ahh MoM...man was that a fun game. Played the heck out of it and enjoyed it thoroughly. Especially starting on Myrran and finding adamantite!! Woot uber units, especially paladins..i loved them. I even remember something came out that allowed multi-player, but it was buggy. Course that was back in the day when Al Gore had just got done inventing and creating the internet, so it didnt work very well. Still, MoM is a love of mine, along with X-Com, Civs, and

Well fricking bummer. I got so psyched seeing that and now have to wait again. Oh well.

This must be something they are getting ready to do, because when i click get update, it just closes out the window. LOL darn..had my hopes up!

Major update in War of Magic Elemental Forums

Just went to play B4 and was loading into the game and a screen popped up saying a major update is available and a list of what they fixed!! Not sure if this is the release version, or a fix they put forth for us beta testers, but im hoping to try and DL it right now!

Thanks for all the advice!

Reply to Do I need to uninstall the beta? in War of Magic Elemental Forums

Is there an option in Impulse to remove it completely, or should I find it on my C drive and just delete it from there? I just want to make sure I do this right, so it wont interfere.

Reply to Elemental: Game Play Example – Part 2 in Elemental Dev Journals Elemental Forums

How do you find out how many enchantment slots you have? I have tried to find it in the beta 4, but have yet to see how many I can have. I also have been wondering if there is a way to increase it.

The music you here in the vid, is that from the game or just used for the vid. I thought it was really neat sounding.

LOL too cool. So ready for this to come out. Keep feeding us please Sir Frog! I wonder how you got he nickname Frogboy? I suppose thats a story for a different post.

Reply to Elemental: From Beta 4 to Gold to Day 0 in Elemental Dev Journals Elemental Forums

LOL great sense of humor Lord Frog. I also like the different coloring for the summoned bear. Now is that a tactical battle spell or one you cast outside on the normal map? One thing I did like about MoM, was the ability to cast some summons in battles, I believe like Fire eles, and phantom warriors and such. The pics look awesome and I cant wait. Great job!!

Reply to Post Mortem on the Elemental Beta in War of Magic Elemental Forums

They were up front with how the beta would be from the start...cloth map only and then would add in features. Heck it even said on the opening screen about how painful this would be. I appreciated the honesty and the chance to try it out. I really loved when they added that old homage to dos games and thought that was great. They listened to ideas and made changes and have done a great job!

Reply to Elemental: No Copy Protection, Activation, LAN and more in Elemental Dev Journals Elemental Forums

Ill be honest and say I dont read the EULA very much at all. Is that dump, probably, but to me alot of whats in there doesnt make much sense anyway. Its kinda like a bill going thru Congress thats 2000 pages long...I just dont understand it! Anyways, I wouldnt give games to friends, as to me, thats illegal just from a common sense view. Then again, they often call me a "goody goody" cause I wont get movies and other stuff off the net that I consider wrong.

Ahh ok Frog. I understand that and no issues with that whatsoever. Basically, with my serial number I can put it onto my laptop and desktop and not have to buy another then, if im reading it right. But that computer would still need Impulse to run it then, or is that only for Multi and updating? I did notice when you play the beta 4 that it had an update feature on it. Ive actually played around a bit with Impulse and like what it does. Do you see the futur

So let me get this straight...Since I have bought the CE edition of Elemental, you are going to let me put it onto another machine, then my wife could play the same version in multiplayer on our LAN? And all she would need is an account?? Is that correct?? If so wow...simply wow. I mean my wife's computer is actually mine too, since its what I had til I upgraded, but it seems that most other companies would be making me buy another copy, since copies seem to only be at

Wow thats really neat that we are, in a way, playing thru a book now!! Im really looking forward to this game and the book coming out. Im also looking forward to messing with the editors and seeing what can be made and added. I loved working on the XML for GC, though I had to learn it basically from scratch. Still the results were worth it! Thanks again for the hard work!

Reply to Other Games Stardock should re-make. in War of Magic Elemental Forums

Im defiantly for the X-com. I still dont understand why someone doesnt just take the basic game and revamp it for today. You could have a turn based feature or real time. Could even throw in multi player by having friends able to jump in as your soldiers or what not. Re do the tech trees and make them more modern and then add in alien tech and more. I think if anyone could do it, its Lord Frog and his army of super duper game makers!!
