Reply to Iterating further on Elemental in Elemental Dev Journals Elemental Forums

Sorry, but I find this thread somewhat amusing (and almost insulting). You never escaped from the Elemental name or the WoM release. The attempt to change people's perception by trying to call the games something else (if that's what you really thought you were doing) did not work. Picking a random Legendary Heroes review, which ended up being the GameSpot one, the very first words of the review are "Elemental: War of Magic" followed closely by "expansion" several times. This is an ex

Reply to [BUG] Killing Vetrar did not open Arctic wildland in LH Support Elemental Forums

I think it might be more the AI changes making the issue more common. AIs might be doing a better job moving around and exploring areas and being smart/aware enough to avoid these bosses when they get close rather than just blindly running into them and dieing. It was back in April ('13) that I last reported this, so not too long ago, and it was rare then and something I only saw a few times. I think the issue has always been that while these bosses are "leashed" to their wildland area, i

Last time I checked the diplomatic relations hit was tied only to the tower of the witch, not the forge. It might be more than a graphical glitch, I never played with that victory condition but doesn't building the forge allow you to do something to win the game (cast a spell or whatever)? You should check if you still can even with the city razed.

[quote who="smeagolheart" reply="11" id="3401476"] I haven't played a game since, hope the next patch addresses this.[/quote] I would not hold my breath. I reported this in beta (possibly the FE beta, been a while) with screen shots and even got a dev response telling us it wasn't supposed to happen, but it's obviously never been fixed. It's a long standing bug they have been aware of and likely don't have an easy way to fix so they just ignore it.

[quote who="merlinme" reply="58" id="3399649"]Well, not really. You can win more or less any way you like if you've eliminated the AIs as a threat. There are some marginal cases when playing on a high difficulty where you might squeak through a Spell of Making or Quest victory with more powerful AIs still playing, or take a Diplomatic victory because you're allied with someone. But most of the time I eliminate the AIs as a threat, and then decide at my leisure how I wan

Reply to [Issue][Most Recent Version] Still getting delay to display results of combat with Sovereign Archer in LH Support Elemental Forums

Are the other units in the stack mounted and ranged? I think what is happening is some amount of kiting going on during the auto-resolve simulation. I don't think there are any map boundaries during the sim and mobile ranged units just tend to repeatedly move back I think. I tend to get a second or two delay whenever I fight one of those archer spider hybrid monsters, that's what I assume is happening though I don't recall actually checking the combat log to confirm. You can proba

Blind guesses while you are uploading that screen, did you delete your LH folder in documents/my games/ when you reinstalled? It could be some sort of messed up graphics setting or a mod. How much (and how recently) did you play the game before this started happening? What are your system specs? Maybe you played a small map first and it seemed to work fine and a larger map was something your system couldn't handle? Do you have any issues with other games? Random visual art

[quote quoting="post"] If a monster conquers a city, it will raze it. However, if an active hero is present when the city is attacked, you will keep the city even if you lose the fight.

Heck yes, having them spam tremor on a caravan every single turn is so maddeningly annoying, especially when they tell you how awesome they are in a pop-up for having cast it, every time.

When I was playing with like shrills or skeleton groups I didn't really have much concern for pool like I mentioned in a previous post. However when I was using tier 4 and 5 summons primarily I was casting the channeling spell on every single city and had 2 or 3 champs that all took the +summon pool traits (all of them), and I tended to stay right at the pool cap with like 2-3 tier 4/5 summons stationed in every city as defenders and another 10 or so out in the field as part of armies led

No offense, but that was exactly the sort of misconception I believed the OP had about the system. Building a pioneer will always cause a city to level (or hit the cap) more slowly, always. There is a small advantage to building one earlier rather than later but if it's a question of building one over not building one, not building one will always level a city more quickly. The extra growth will go away before reaching the previous population level and you will never catch up natu
