[quote who="John_Hughes" reply="9" id="2660338"]Your Offspring already have "Essence", the special component.

So, we can drain our offspring of their life force in order to fuel the war machine. =D [quote who="lwarmonger" reply="10" id="2660352"]It should be too easy to include this as an option.&nbs

TVTropes - Elemental War of Magic in War of Magic Elemental Forums

Elemental - War of Magic on TVTropes. Just created the page, and it really needs some more contributors to shape it up and provide examples of tropes. Anyone more skilled than I care to give a hand?

Well, make everyone age faster in small games, then? It's that simple. =p

When is 2B coming about, anyhow?

[BUG][0.803] Children Age Faster Than Everyone Else in WOM BETA Builds Elemental Forums

My sovereign's children aged to 18 in about 75 turns, and then aged at the same speed as everyone else. This meant I ended up with children aged 18 with parents aged 23. It was just very, very odd.

Reply to Master of Magic in PC Gaming Elemental Forums

[quote who="Star Adder" reply="18" id="2659848"]From what I've read so far, it won't. There are so many more facettes to the gameplay of Elemental that will make it much more difficult to be successful at all. Also it will take much longer till you get advanced armies and heroes, not to mention summoned creatures. Don't get me wrong. I believe that Elemental will be a great game. And I can't wait for it to be available for playing. But it simply won't be a new version of MoM but so

Wait, people are actually using up ALL their building slots? I usually get to city level 5 and have 60 left over and only villas / estates left to build. That's with full research, too.

It was surprisingly easy (use the diplomacy menu, click on some empty ground and click on the shaking hands at the bottom of the screen) to begin a heavily inbred royal family in the game.

Reply to [bug/gameplay/AI] AI got "caught" in my territory in WOM BETA Builds Elemental Forums

I had the same. My territory "pushed back" my enemy's, and I ended up having a small army sitting inside my borders.

[Suggestion/Gameplay] Barbarian Outposts / Creature's Lairs in WOM BETA Builds Elemental Forums

So, I was wondering, whilst playing, what's missing from the game? What could be done better? Then I realised. There're no "neutral" powers, free to be conquered or to take over little bits of the game world. What's needed is a barbarian faction that just builds little cities in all the non-player parts of the map. They should be pretty freely conquerable, and spread slowly over the map. They shouldn't be able to completely fight against players, but they should be enough to s

Reply to [Suggestion] living champions in WOM Ideas Elemental Forums

I support this idea entirely.

Reply to [suggestion] Skill trees for Champions in WOM Ideas Elemental Forums

Merchants could be anything from tax collection (working on your own population to make money), trading work (making money based off caravans entering the city), draining cash from other cities, economic blockades on other cities etc etc. Make them slightly spylike too, maybe? I like this concept anyhow.
