[quote who="Tridus" reply="1" id="2771402"]Soon®[/quote] Yes :) But, just to be clear, I was not asking when it will be available, I know how this is an almost impossible request (Dev can answer only about one hour before putting it out, probably), just when it will be out if it pass the internal check. To put it in another way, my question was: how much is the average time between a successful internal check and the public availability of a patch? Is a c

Destiny's Embers vs. Book 1 in War of Magic Elemental Forums

I enjoyed a lot Brad's book, and I also liked the story of the first volume of the Campaign (even if it was by far too quick to play through). But I have a couple of quick questions: 1) Are Destiny's Embers and Book 1 set in the same Elemental world (the one of the paper map)? 2) If the above answer is yes, is Destiny's Embers set after Book 1? What about Book 2 (is it set between Book 1 and DE or after DE or in some other period)? TIA to Brad or anyb

A lot of good things in this Journal! [e digicons]^_^[/e] About the maps: I suggest to include an entry with the map size... some of them has it in the description, but it's such an important parameter that I think should have a dedicated place in the map characteristics. And I also suggest to include for all the mods the possibility to rate them (out of ten, or out of 5 stars at least)... I think that in few months we'll have a huge amount of mods, and we need proper wa

Reply to Brad please make Sovereign Suicide Rush your first priority! in War of Magic Elemental Forums

I think that this is a double issue. 1) AI should evaluate better before rushing, both if the Sovereign is involved or not. About this, I'm confident that Brad will solve it as soon as he has some time to work on the AI and make it evaluate better equipment and so, as he anticipated in his last journal entry. 2) Empires and Kingdoms should not disappear when their sovereign is killed. I'm more worried about this, because it is not a bug, it seems to be a design

Hi, first of all, thanks for the new patch! I hope that you will find time ASAP to fix the problem with the mouse cursor. I'm not speaking of the jittery cursor problem that almost everybody has when you keep pressed the Shift key, it's a minor issue. I'm speaking of the problem some of us have ALWAYS, whichever we are doing, even in the main menu screen... the mouse is jittery, and disappears when you move it, making a real PITA to play.
