I will tackle. Living Stone (environment: dead) A race of living stone, they would be suited best to live in rock formations that resemble kingdom buildings. Avoid lava-pits and such. 50,50,50 </s

The Floating Head is using Fireball now. Got killed earlier. Seems to be secondary "burn" effects in action? Took the standard 12 pain, then watched +2, +1 float up as I floated down. LOL! The Scimitar of Death needs to be toned down a tad still. Came across one, in a group of 4 others, about medium based strength, and it alone had 142/88/42. Not a complaint mind,

As for the Guardian, and its deterrent value, something around the same #'s as 2 peasants combined perhaps. I say that because, as a rule, with 2 peasants on site, the problem with monsters attacking seems to go away. What does the City Upgrade option of Random Guardian usually provide for base #'s? That may provide the preferred balance.

@ LightofAbraxas Thanks for the code. I will run it up and check the overall impact. I run a pretty basic starting SoV build so the scaling should be apparent as he progresses. I will report back if I remember. <span style="font-si

I will check the Bow. The range would have to quite short, being it is listed as a Long Bow though. Next up. New bodiless creatures. The Head and the The Scimitar of Death? They appear quite early and are quite powerful. The Scimitar is 88/45/16 iirc. Any word on what is generating these suckers? Edit: P.S. The bodiless un

Very nice as always HF but I may have found a Bug/Snafu. My SoV found a kick ass Bow, forget the name, but when equipped and in Tactical, it does not Fire.Clicking sends the SoV a running. I had one of the new champs, who had his bow and he worked. Sorry, can't seem to load Saves so will try and remember to PRNT SCR if I get it, and can replicate, again. <

Transports grant access to enemy terrain otherwise inaccessible but to those Armies capable of direct assaults. I do agee though, let's assume the wind always blows at 10 knots, not .5 knots. ;)

Not sure of costs as haven't played much Empire yet, but. And yes Balance is forthcoming, I know. Just saying... ;) 1) Sions , or any enemy with, with Critical Strike are brutal. Seeing 3X ATT strikes with 27ATT points on a single unit. (A single 71HP strike kills all but the most sturdy) 2) Lord Hammers appear qu

A transport(s) is a perfect tool to sail an Armed force to the back side of the enemy Kingdom. Nothing like owning their Capital to piss them off and then listen to them whine as they try and sue for Peace. Muhahahahahahhaaha LOL

CDT'd at 194 A.C. Not long after a fresh Saved Game load. Had approx. 5 units on the move. 5 enemy factions, had met only one at this time, we had non-agro pact. Had 4 cities L1-3 with max Caravans routing. http://dl.dropbox.com/u/8370296/debug.err

Sorry xStar, perhaps I was not clear, enough. I am 5-10 seasons in and 6-8 tiles out from my first settlement. If I have to do as you say, spec my SoV for WAR from the outset, then I guess a Magic/Diplo based SoV is out of the question. I don't mind danger, but at least provide odds of victory for a 2-man adventuring team, for at least long enough to collect the shiny shit within site of the start point. </spa

Newest Patch, first 2 games. First game. myself and Janusk moved out after settlement creation and weapons upgrade (best available), within 5 seasons were attacked by the little grey folk. 2 enemies, one had 25HP, 6 ATT, 4 DEF, his buddy 18HP 4/0 we lost badly. (game over) Second game. Same as above. same result. Could carry on but what is the point. If we can't roam

I don't think Crystals get spawned without the Tech research. Been a few games now. where without the Tech, no crystals, thus no advanced armored troops...
