Reply to GalCiv 3 0.7 Feedback in Galactic Civilizations III Stardock Forums

Yea, my second play thought I found that out. Just for kicks to see if I could I turned off all conditions EXCEPT Ascension and then set it to generate no Ascension nodes. :) They probably need to link those two a little closer.

[quote who="Gilmoy" reply="1" id="3518114"] 1. When staring at the tech newsbot, click "Tech Tree" in the extreme lower left. It shows you the tech tree like a (draggable) wall poster. [/quote] Thank you, that is a lot better for long term planning. Time for round 2.

GalCiv 3 0.7 Feedback in Galactic Civilizations III Stardock Forums

Reply to [suggestion / idea] Haunted cities after monsters destroy them in FE Beta Elemental Forums

If they do not go for this idea then they at least leave the grain/matierial/essence in place of a destroyed city so that future cities can be built in place of it. It seems that right now all resources that fall in a cities (but not an outpost's) ZOC are lost for future building even if the city is razed by monsters.

This bug still apears to be in 0.952. I have the same situation. Everything cleared except for some troll layers and one flooded graveyard locked since "my faction can not use" and I can not raze.

Reply to [0.86][BUG]Throwing knives always do 1 damage in FE Beta Elemental Forums

I think I have gotten up to 6 with one once, but it was with a very late game hero. Usually I expect my late game heros to hit around a 3 or 4 with them. Other than that 1s do seem to be all they hit. That makes them good for times when there is nothing better to do, but not much else.

Reply to [0.86][bug] Unit stuck following road through enemy outpost in FE Support Elemental Forums

The more I play the more it goes back and forth: The first tiny improvement pushed the border back. Now that I have continues to build further into the wildland the town is half in half out with the border in its original spot. I wonder what will happen when one of the inhabitants of that wildland notice. More bugs I

[0.86][bug] Unit stuck following road through enemy outpost in FE Support Elemental Forums

One of the things that has been a nuisance finally turned into a bug today. From the image below you can see my territory (in pink) has surrounded another faction's outpost (highlighted). Since outposts that fall completely into your territory still remain the possession of their creator my units can not travel through them, but my archers are trying their hardest to follow the road that goes right through that outpost. They sit there and run and run and run

Reply to [0.86][Suggestion] Outposts need defenders in FE Beta Elemental Forums

[quote who="Stupidity10" reply="26" id="3093192"]passes historically were gaurded, something we cant do with the guard command[/quote] Passes were also choke points. You can currently hold choke points (either actual passes or land bridges) with a single stack or a single outpost. What you seem to want with a series of 3x3 zone of control is not something like a fort at the pass but more akin to the Great Wall of China.

[0.86][Suggestion] Enemy AI should not web ranged units over melee in FE Beta Elemental Forums

I am not sure if the AI being stupid or not counts as a bug or a suggestion. In tactical combat the enemy AI is taking its time casting "Web" on my range units rather than the melee units bearing down on it. In this particular case my range units are also the ones with the weakest spell resistances which might be why it is favoring them (ranged were normal archerers and one hero with a spell staff equipped; melee were all heros). It seems that for some spells like th

Reply to Tactical AI is better - here are some suggestions that I think are worth consideration in FE Beta Elemental Forums

I have the same issue with cast time in spell casting. For an area of affect spell I would much rather do a spell like Shockwave (everyone around me and instant). The turns spent preparing that spell I would much rather spend getting into the mix and could cause just as much damage with a combination of melee and single unit spells. As for your ideas on flank, units in tactical battles don't really have a "direction" set though their animation shows one.

[0/86][bug] Enemy proposed trade agreement and declared war on the same turn in FE Support Elemental Forums

One turn I got three diplomatic messages from the only surviving faction I had contact with (Capitar?), in this order (ad libing the messages): - Pay us gold to survive. (I declined) - Would you like to make a trade agreement (I accepted and had to pay a small amount of gold to balance it in their eyes) - Prepare to die! (Long war ensued) It seems that if a faction is considering war it should not also be considering trad

Reply to [bug][0.77] Sweep performance problem in FE Support Elemental Forums

I think this is a problem with mounted heros. It is not just sweap. Most of the special moves when mounted take more than 30 seconds. Defend is another that has the same issue. There are also a lot of graphical issues when mounted. Try casting grow on one of your mounted heros.
