Reply to Please make <space bar> the turn button shortcut also on strategic map in FE Beta Elemental Forums

Didn't know about "unit turns", but I understand that this might be useful for people relying on "Auto turn". Easy solution: toggle the functionality with the "Auto turn" option in the game preferences, as ending "unit turns" doesn't make any sense if "Auto turn" is disabled. Another soultion would be configurable keyboard shortcuts. I would immediately switch and .

Yes, works in tactical. With the mouse in my right hand, is much more comfortable to press instead of or even , for which I have to reach over half of the keyboard.

Please make <space bar> the turn button shortcut also on strategic map in FE Beta Elemental Forums

Having to press or on the strategic map is a pain, works so nicely in tactical batles and should work on the strategic map as well. I admit this might not be a problem for left handed people and maybe the responible coder is one of them.

Reply to [0.86][BUG?]The Warlord Profession in FE Support Elemental Forums

Maybe the Warlord trait could exclude one heroe in your souvereigns army from XP split calculation (if the current mechanic is here to stay). Would be nice to have a body guard by my side without limiting my experience gains. Similar profession could be useful for a souvereign that goes the path of a gouvernor, Homeboy trait could grant experience to heroes in the same city as adventurers guild does.

[quote who="Hawawaa" reply="26" id="3088796"] I think I get the 1000 turn thing. Remember GalCiv2 and some of the crazy scores you could milk given the time and patients.

On the other hand this would keep people somehow away from playing modded games so it would be a two-edged sword if not implemented more open than Metaverse with it's strict

Reply to Tactical games: Kiting in FE Beta Elemental Forums

Entangled ! With every move the archer's risk to get entangled increases. 1/N for the first movement 2/N for the second movement ... N might depend on the size of the battleground, but keep it tight as archers are meant to hold position. Defend them with melee units instead of moving them around like crazy (aka kiting).

Here is another one. You can see ressources if you mouseover the settle button when a pioneer unit is selected or you can toggle it on/off permanently in the upper right corner where terrain informations are displayed. Please also add a hotkey for that!

Imbuement has been removed from the game. I loved the flavor of it, but players didnt realize they could be casting spells with their champions. That is a bit sad. Not that the simple imbuement mechanic was anything special or fun, but it added flavor and made the souvereign kind of special. Wouldn't it be a nice tone to have a split screen triggered on recruiting like when you found your first city? Whenever a hero joins, you could show

Reply to [Suggestion] Make cites prompt you to build something if nothing is currently in queue in FE Beta Elemental Forums

Some nice sound effect would help to notice the "Zzzz" on the left, maybe a short fanfare or strings. No need to repeat it for every empty queue or every turn though, just once per turn if one or more queues became empty right before.

[0.77] Minor quirks with keyboard control in FE Beta Elemental Forums

1) On the strategic map, pressing should always end turns. This is not very reliable, sometimes it works and lots of times it doesn't. 2) Select your souvereign or a heroe and press "e" to get to the equipment screen. Press "e" again to close it, which doesn't work. Close it with your mouse and see it open again. Seems the the last keypress is still in the buffer. Could be true for other keyboard controls as well. By the way

Reply to Rock Paper Scissor approach in FE Beta Elemental Forums

Combine it with another idea I read on the forums. Let's say each individual has to be attacked and taken down seperately, so for example a group of five spearmen would take at least five deadly strikes (read five rounds as long as a single attacker has no multiple attacks or area attack) to be taken out. Mages strong against armies and weak against melee Melee strong against mages and weak against armies. Armies strong against melee an

Wow! Stardock knows how to tease customers to death. Yesterday Fallen Enchantress showed up in my Stardock account for download all of a sudden, although I didn't pre-order and therefore only qualified for the second beta round starting on Thursday. Honest as I am I didn't care and tried to steal two days of beta access immediately. Unfortunately I did neither copy and paste my serial nor did I keep the browser window open and after the game was installed... you
