Reply to Scratch Civ V off my buy list. in PC Gaming Elemental Forums

[quote]Tropico 3, pretty much all stardock titles now and paradox titles horde their patches behind servers that can disappear so I won't pay full price for those games either. [/quote] Well, from the publisher point of view, it is understandable that they are trying to be sure that only paying customers have access to patches. Sadly, everything has a drawback associated with it.

Reply to How is battle combat rating figured? in War of Magic Elemental Forums

I have done some calculations based on the algorithm exposed Tridus and assuming that when a number between 0 and N is rolled, all integer values from 0 to N have the same probability. The results are roughly the following (if my calculations are correct): If you are facing an opponent with 0 DEF, you will roughly do an average damage of your ATK/2 per swing. If you are facing an opponent with the same DEF than your attack, you will roughly do an average damage

[quote]However, my sovereign always escapes..... i get that 'dodge the killing blow' comment EACH time. Is this a bug?[/quote] Have you checked how many essence you have before the battle and after the 'dodging'? There is mention about using 'powers' to escape the killing blow.

Reply to How is battle combat rating figured? in War of Magic Elemental Forums

[quote]Good to hear, because the current calculation method is far from being perfect.[/quote] Sadly no absolute combat rating, that doesn't take into account the opponent, will do the trick for estimating accuratly the odds of a battle outcome. What you need is how many turns needs my army in average to kill the other army vs how many turns need them to kill me to estimate if you would can win the fight with eventually a bit of luck. Your attack against ennemy defense gi

Reply to Is there any kind of morality system in Elemental ? in War of Magic Elemental Forums

[quote]It would also help if these NPCs eventually started doing something instead of wandering aimlessly forever.[/quote] If I remember correctly some posts, Brad wants some NPC to be a trigger for unleashing powerful creatures from their lair and devastating YOUR territory. And it will be pretty annoying if NPC can target goody huts, take the associated loot and you are unable to get the loot back from them when you hire them or kill them ;)

Reply to [Gameplay] Towns more MoM-y in WOM Ideas Elemental Forums

[quote]Soldiers recruited are from the population. That means each and every soldier slows the economy a bit - you must be careful with army maximizing so to not go bankrupt. Also, I think they should cost less, but require upkeep (food, money, or both). [/quote] Soldiers are already recruited from your population and have a wage (money upkeep in genereal) associated with them

[quote]In which case why limit where you can buy items? If items can be transported instantly anywhere there is no point limiting shops to cities - just creates interface 'clunkiness'. Better to make a firm decision about the gameplay - either: you only buy items in cities and only transfer them between adjacent tiles; or you can buy items anywhere and drag them anywhere. [/quote] Perhaps, transfer items should work like recruiting NPC: you

Reply to [FEEDBACK] The setting and needless micro in WOM BETA Builds Elemental Forums

[quote]- I agree about souvereign: gaining 10 points each level and having each one only inscrease a decimal have no sense: such low inscrease are too small to matters, I would prefer having only a few points to use but that each one has a true value.[/quote] Yes, this is very starnge since all stats have decimal increase, even essence and constitution

Reply to [0.802][Beta2][Bug] strange AI cities in WOM BETA Builds Elemental Forums

I have tried to plays as capitar. And when founding a city capitar has 2 buildings giving research points, study and tutor, and 2 building giving materials, mill and workshop. So the AI is behaving correctly. But it is very strange since you don't have a summary of all buildings in your city. I am pretty sure that some people will say that the AI cheats if we don't have more feedback about the buildings in a city.

[quote] The popups that keep telling me that city XXX finished building a hut are a PAIN. I have to click on them to get rid of that thing wasting space in a part of the screen, and then it moves me to the city. [/quote] Are you speaking about popup or about icons that appear on the right of the screen? Have you tried to right click on them? And on the bigger icons categorizing the smaller ones?
