I am of the belief that Forest tiles should be able to be used to build both Tech based buildings - Lumber Mill ( currently allowed) and City based infrastructure - All (currently not allowed ). Given that, if the Pioneers were to get permission to engage/

[quote]"If you send a Pioneer to resource you have already built on you can build another building there and get more resources. You can only seem to select the building on top and it may only show your getting +0.5 Metal from the mine but your total metal income maybe something like +2.0 from being 4 mines there. The color of the building on the map gets darker with each additional building you put down also."[/quote] Great find. Will need to try
[quote who="Frogboy" reply="46" id="2593399"]I'm thinking of having it part of the event tree that would be able to be turned on and off in the options. [/quote] I think we may have a winner. ;)
Events - there can be 3 kinds. Minor, Moderate and Major. The time between Events in inconsequential and may even allow each player to use their imagination to define those "times". Some quick example(s) might be: - Getting Married would be a Moderate/Major event. (don't ask the Queen what she think

How about Monuments. These get unlocked as your Conguest, or Diplomatic take over of the World progress forward. You could erect Monuments to Fallen Hero's, your Children who have acheived great deeds on your behalf. Or one for yourself. Just because you can.

I can see 4 viable options (some listed already) 1 - Pop up Info/Tip Boxes (of any highlighted object on the map) via the F(?) button. (on demand mode) 2 - Advisers - again in some form of on-demand mode (advise could be categorized for ease of use.... Cities/Tech/Questing 3 - A Demo (no better way to get into a game than playing a small demo version) 4 - A comprehensive in Box manual, that is then supplemented by an Online Elementalpedia

I will have to check but it seems the Groups seem to form with time. I have found groups members all Solo, and recruited a bunch early, vs a game where I was way more Tech focused, vs Exploration, and came across the 38+ groups and or individuals... I posted elsewhere that I am of the belief that if you attack a Hero, even accidentally through the FOG of war, then cancel and attempt to recruit that Hero, it turns their Battle rating into their Recruiting Charisma value. Sounds
A possible reason it seems less immersive is that after equipping the Uber stuff, we get to go back to a guy standing on a floating pedestal in a night gown. How immersive can that ever be. :) Perhaps, with time, when you finish equipping that same Uber stuff we will get to go back to a Knight like figure, encased in in gleaming suit of armor, waving around a flaming
Quest ends and cannot be re-attempted if a recruited "Hero" is sent in my stead and Fails! Not sure if this is a BUG or not, but the fact I sent a “Hero” in my stead, to rescue the Damsel/Knight/Young Son, while I was busy out Troll hunting … (be wary wary careful) should still allow me, the SOV, to go back
I think it would be cool, that after what Tasunke said about Tech/Languages/Questing etc, that you do the Dragon a solid favor, and in return, it owes you one. Collectible whenever you ask. That way, when a BIG Battle Royale breaks out, the enemy seems to be getting the upper hand and is laughing at your "puny little pissant army" you call in the "Dragon Marker" <span style="fo

Raises hand to vote YES! [e digicons]:thumbsup:[/e] All that would be required is that the Armor and Weapons be special built (time/Materials/Cost based) So that a Troll, denoted as a a Large sized Beasty would need a Large armor plate, Helm and a Half a Tree ( Carved to a form fit Club). Time/Material/Cost = 3-4x that of a Regular/Stnd. sized soldier who was provided the same gear... <

What if we could MERGE Villages with Towns and then Towns with Cities? A level 1 Village could MERGE with, and be absorbed by a Level 3 City. A level 2 Town could MERGE with, and be absorbed by, a Level 4 City. A level 3 City could MERGE with, and be absorbed by, a Level 5 City. <span style=

Cool thanks. P.S. After more tests, it seems if the groups are retured to town for even 1 Turn, the seem to return to full strength. Everything seems a bit weird though so who knows???
