[quote who="cardinaldirection" reply="3" id="3253139"]This is another great example of the end user experience being overlooked. The underlying game mechanics are simply brilliant , but the means by which they are experienced leave much to be desired . A critical reviewer must not encounter something like this.[/quote] +1 My favorite game was Alpha Centuari, Replaced MOM, and this does better than both, now that I ca

It gets worse - here is a save game. https://dl.dropbox.com/u/109779367/31.EleSav As n oted previously I regard this as cheating on the pqart of the AI, So I took a save and proceeded to pivot to the east. I'm now in a "Groundhog Day" Type of situation in the the tribute does not show as counting down in the foreign relations part of the screen. I am being

save game here https://dl.dropbox.com/u/109779367/The%20lull.EleSav This is a continuation of a pet peeve, Treaties may be worrking as designed, I regard them as deeply flawed This is my second tribute session with Yithril. If you take a look at the map I hope you agrree with my thinking This is on challenging. In fact Looking at the map the AI doesnt s

Here we go again. Agian reallly impressed. Yes, I've done some reloading - in addition to the main comments I've also seen driied up oceand and traces of spell sheen - left on the mapo after the buffed up units moved on. Let me say that I'm not just picking on FE, I would be really disappointed in any strategy game whose diplomacy seemed to be as glitchy as this And it appears that it

[quote who="Tuidjy" reply="6" id="3247012"]But I don't think I've often seen the AI field an army that can take on a dragon. Yithril may, but anyone else?[/quote] Cuurently winning against Yithril. I have two armies each w one SD along w some champions each along with ASOK and Warg Archers - Yithril started with stream of Juggernauts with support troops. About 40 juggernauts later the steam is now a trickle of skirmishers, while the dragons have

It seems usually you need one type to get another - workshop - mason - mill for example Well here https://dl.dropbox.com/u/109779367/market.EleSav If you take a look at T-Charlie in the SE you'll see a problem. There is a merchant, and a tax office BUT no market . THis is a problem since the benenfits are cumulative Now that I have

This is an an expansion on my main pet peeve with what is otherwise shaping up to be an excellent game Generally I've found that the AI wil hold to a NA Agreement so long as you hold the whip hand - i.e. Higher military power Where the problem, consistently arises is if you are the jun ior player. Usually If I meet a more powerful AI I will negotiate THe NA and other treties on turn of meeting, before the prioce of poker goes up in later

982 seems to going well, really well. This nis an example of a weird sort of glitch The Yitril and Krax were at war and I got the "I here the drums ..." message that the Yithril were packing it in So far so good However, If you look at the save game and my scout in the upper north west - you'll see that there is still a Yithril scout there Ok..... However whne you speak
