First to Derek, Frogboy, and the rest of the FE team well done. I was plesently surprised to find the Beta 4 ready to play today (my wife not so much). I was fortunate enough to have no problems with the download or starting the game. As a buyer of the first elemental game I can honestly say it was worth the time and enjoyable watching the game develop (fyi I did play a game of WOM good suggestion... FE has come a long way:) ) I really was delighted with the graphics and am enjoying planning new strategies with the city mechanics... I had a fairly good AI starting placement I guess. I did have the game lock up 3 or 4 times (during 5-6 hours of playing (again not to my wifes enjoyment ) but I could save the game exit and restart with no problem or loss of game play. I also enjoyed the monster's trash talk hope more will be incorporated. So Well played my friends looking forward to the polishing and have enjoyed the journey.

As for the wife once I told her that every time ya'll changed the game it was like I got a new game for free She now likes this game the best.
