Re: Re:

Only build 1 unit per city. Fallen Units may not be replaced. Sounds fun, so you mean say from your first city you get your spearmen + swordsmen, and can build a 3rd unit. Then when you capture a 2nd city, you can build another unit - do you have to build the new unit in the new city? Can you build...

Re: Why chaos magic is weak.

I just posted in the other thread and have to say again, i like chaos. I´m more a defense builder player. I don´t build armies, i rarely use summons. Instead i build up quick, trying to get a good economy.2 Gold is 1 Mana :). Why should i build armies or summon dozens of hell hounds when a buffed ...

Re:

Chaos is not made for an 11 book start, 9 books and channeler is better. I think its very different to other realms. With life you build a few units, buff them up and then conquer the map with your invincible army. With chaos you pump out troops knowing they will die and cause as much damage as pos...

Re: 0.9.5 the Overland AI . I wanna help.

I think that's totally achievable. The AI will not cheat. I *might* let it have a few bonuses to production, research and so on like in the original, but it absolutely will not know where enemies are without scouting - its been written like that ever since I wrote the fog of war code. Every player ...

Re: 0.9.5 the Overland AI . I wanna help.

Uff... Yup thats a long post :) I know it would be cool to have a AI acting like a human, able to play with every new race. An Ai which does not cheat at all and knows whats the most effective way to play. An AI which sees your tactic and can react in a "i´m not falling for this" way. But...

Here my 2 Cents. Iam not someone who plays on very hard.In fact i prefer medium or easy difficulty levels.I like diplomacy, but i don´t like the fact how mom and similar games handle the fact that you are a human player. The Comp players come and demand things from you. To get them to ally you have...

Secondly, its alright for taking out raider cities full of spearmen and swordsmen, but anything else it can't kill outright (like even low level nodes with spiders/war bears/etc) and your swordsmen can't finish them off. That´s right. I should have written this in the research and build defense pa...

I never thought i would read something like this. :) I think Chaos is at least as strong as the other forms of magic. It´s the only form of magic i ever managed to beat impossible mode. I Play with Halfling and 11 Chaos Books. Just try to get the 36 skill as fast as you can to cast the devastating ...

i guess you are right. But on the other side it can´t be that hard to fix it. A simple option where i can choose if the Destruction of an artifict should give mana based on it´s casting cost or not would be a good idea i think.

Re: related to the permanent enemy animate dead bug

artificier and sage master combine for another broken trick: the cost reduction for making artifacts from those two retorts stack with each other, allowing you to make artifacts for only a fraction of the cost! (25% I believe) which works as intended..BUT, when you turn and smash that artifact on y...
