[quote who="AlienFromBeyond" reply="3" id="3337761"]Wow, that totally wasn't offensive or non-constructive at all willie. As for the OP... If you find the game too slow, there are game options for that. I've been playing with faster production for instance so I'm spending less time building cities up and have more free time for making armies, or increasing magic strength so there are more shards for more mana. Yes, leveling rate does suck right now. Sure you

You cannot change the way the game is meant to be played by picking the options you want from the menu screen. Changing the mechanics of the game would require modding the game. NOTHING that is done via the menu scre

So, anything is possible in the fantasy world that's why they call it fantasy. If you don't defend your cities you don't deserve to keep them. Plus, the reason many whine about it is because it makes it much harder to RUSH out and CITY SPAM which is what they are wanting to do in the first place. lol If you lose
[quote who="Takkik" reply="31" id="3337649"]Willie, MoM was made long before the casual age, and I don't think anybody playing 4x want casual/easy games. But actually, playing summoner is just boring as hell : You must spend all your points into differents creatures, knowing earlier creatures will become useless later and don't even worth to give to your secondaries heroes. Really I don't see how you could win with an army of wargs. Never tested beastmaster, but there i
[quote quoting="post"]I'm still new, only 60 hours into FE and LH. After spending the past two hours trying to start a game with control N, I had to resort to using Ctrl +U to use my actual real life time more efficiently. Weekend time is limited don't want to waste my time by reloading for two hours. I'm playing on a large map as I wanted more excitement but the starting areas, if even remotely useful, the next area to settle is half way across the map. I'd have t
Play on a small map with maximum ai opponents and you won't see the results you're seeing now OP. Small maps are the best challenges.....oh and up the difficulty level also....challenging level is hardly challenging when one is mostly exploiting the ai as much as possible. Let's move up to insane or ridiculous eh? ;)
[quote who="NanakoAC" reply="1" id="3337708"]the point of it is to make troops worthwhile. if there was nothing to discourage multiple heroes, then you'd just run around with a group of 7 heroes conquering empires easily. Champions represent Leaders of Men. Dominant personalities. They work best when they each have room to express themselves, and troops under their command. the fact is quite simple, the game is better this way. i didn't like it
[quote quoting="post"]When monsters raze player or AI controlled city, the city gets razed. The bug is that you can't build new city in that place anymore. If you, however, raze captured city, you can actually build new city on the same spot. I have a save game with monsters just about to raze a city. When they do, you will see that spot is no longer available for settling. The spot had 5/3/1 when I settled it. Save game: Link
Ahhh I see another NINTENDO generation prodigy in the OP's post. Who else doesn't see the need for INSTANT GRATIFICATION in his post? Gotta have it now don't want to wait too slow too slow can't get the hero I WANT. lmao Just use the CHEAT CODES BABY!.......oh wait! ;) Everything he doesn't like I like about LH.

I think they should add a spell of a familiar summons that would take all the equipment you want to sell back to a place to sell it like in Torchlight.
[quote who="ben_sphynx" reply="29" id="3337633"]Willie - did you have fun in MoM winning with your summons? The sort of fun that no one should ever be allowed to have again? [/quote] Describing what FUN is is always subjective. My fun may not be your fun. For instance I prefer things that are hard and complicated and overly challenging for my fun. But, from what I see on many forums is candyland romper room chutes and ladders is other players fun.
[quote who="StevenAus" reply="2" id="3337566"]The text is wrong. It just escapes you from the battle. To get to your capital, you need a Recall scroll, which can only be used outside of battle. [/quote] Yep this ^ is true. This prevents the HUMAAN player from exploiting the game/ai by trying to escape far away from battles he knows he can't win. So, now you'll be more cautious and research your close opponents instead of just jumping in willy nilly and going "

[quote who="Sanati" reply="4" id="3337531"]You really need multiple armies capable of handling any threat in this game. Eventually you are going to be at war on multiple fronts, with armies coming at you from multiple directions and monsters wandering in from "friendly" territory. In FE you could have your super stack with 10 move run around wiping out all the enemies on one front in a single turn then teleport to the other side of your territory to do the same, but now with combat zeroing mo
In a MULTIPLAYER world leveling up 1 hero/sov would be the way to go obviously for those min/maxer types who just must have the strongest best army on the map. BUT, in a solo single player game against an AI? lol Not EVEN close to necessary. Playing the PVE game is about the ADVENTURE, the EXPLORATION the MINOR WARS. THere's no need to MIN/MAX in the PVE solo single player game. I don't do it and it makes the game(s) a lot more fun and challenging. Some
Summoning in MOM was one of the things that was "overpowering" and overpowered vs the AI. I can't count the number of games I EASILY won using SUMMONS. Armies of Lycanthropes, Ghouls, Hell Hounds just overran and pulverized the AI who never used it to that effect like I did. I remember in the early game how even the lowly Phantom Warriors saved my butt in many battles because I could summon as many as I could afford. <span style="font-si
Seriously you can upgrade to an ATI 5770 HD with 1gb ram for a song these days and it's still highly rated as one of the best low end cards now. There was a time it was the best middle of the road card out there. I'd bet you can find one for under $100 now easily.

Racial traits are "racists" and we don't need that in a GAME. Already have enough of it in the real world. ;)
[quote who="Foxd1e" reply="18" id="3337027"] Quoting willie sanderson, reply 15 I personally do not like things in the game that makes the game EASIER and all these things you have modded have just DUMBED DOWN the game not improved it. But, that is what modding is for. So that players can create the game EASY as it sounds for themselves.I would personally tweak the AI to be ruthless and raze anything and everything the player has created.I would have the AI c
This is also a sign the card is beginning to fail with overheating issues. Try putting more fan air onto the card. I use a window air conditioner in my computer room blowing right into my case (yes I take the case side panel off). This keeps my cpu and gpu very cold and I do not suffer overheating issues like fantasy reboots and graphics glitches.

[quote quoting="post"] LH is evolving into an AMAZING game, and an even better platform for future expansions/DLCS/mods However, there are five relatively minor tweaks that I plan to do in order to make gameplay absolutely perfect: 1.
