And see this for a link to MoM 2.0.

It's actually pretty good. I just tried it out with 4 ai opponents on a small map with powerful magic on hard setting and I got screwed royally in the setup. hahaha I'd like to see some of those that boast how easy MOM is to play this map out as I'm on a little island that I can only have two cities on and no chance of getting off of it for awhile. While the ai are on large flats of land and already have 3+ cities growing and drawing their plans against me. I wonder how many of those boasters are save and reloaders? Or just reload the entire game because they got a crap starting position and say to themselves this is unfair and I can't win so I'm starting over but I won't admit defeat to the game. lol

Is this compatible with 1.4? Or only usable on 1.31? Because both 1.4 and 2.0 seem very tempting, hoiw to decide which one to use? I want both!

1.4 is more like a real patch.

While 2.0 is more like a big mod/redesign.

Depends on what you mean by TC. If you mean that the 1.40 patch removed Tactical Combat, then the answer is no, you misunderstood. The patch just renames and relocates the respective game setting. As a consequence, Automatic Combat _may_ be switched on after installing the patch, but you can simply switch it off again.

Alt enter will make the dos box full screen

there was a bug where units with fear, (cloak of fear, shadow demons, and Demons lords) would not do the proper amount of damage. It might because the fear was being used against itself. Dunno about werewolves... though I remember something being wrong there... maybe weapon immunity wasn't working?

fear is fixed in 1.40a

I looked at the alternate 2.0 patch notes, i don't like many of the changes he made, so I think i might give 1.4 a shot.

Fun game still, I fired it up again, and this time with 1.40f and Impossible difficulty. Normally I do fairly well against AI, but this time the AI actually whipped my butt right from the start, and fought me tooth and nail on the little island property I had. Then eventually the one most powerful wizard casted the Spell of Mastery, this is the first time I've ever had Spell of Mastery casted against me!!! I could not stop him in time, and I lost!

Someone wake me up when SD patches Elemental enough to make it as fun as MoM. It doesn't have to do the same thing MoM did, it just needs to be fun.

It's much later than I intended (the project kept growing as I worked on it), but here it is. Kyrub's unofficial patch for Master of Magic inspired me to pick up a years-old unfinished project of mine and finally complete and release it - "Plight", a complete overhaul of all help texts in Master of Magic.

If anyone who stills plays this game would like to have a look, here's the link:

The 1.40 patch will work with the DOS PC.

Regarding PLIGHT, it should also work with the DOS version on an 486 PC. I haven't tested it, but I had Master of Magic running in Dosbox (which faithfully emulates a 386/486 PC) throughout development. So it _should_ work.

Actually I'd be grateful if you could test ist and tell me if you ran into problems. I'm using one feature (highlights) for which I can't tell why it works, I just experimentally confirmed that it does. There's a small chance that this feature only works due to a fluke in Dosbox and won't work in the original game. I think it's unlikely, but not impossible, so I'd be happy if someone tested it.

Savegames are transferable and email-able. There are 8 save slots in MoM. The game in the topmost slot will always be saved sa save1.gam, the one below it is save2.gam, etc. So if someone wants to send out a savegame, all he has to do is to count in which slot he saved it, then zip the respective gam file and mail it.

Note: The name of the savegame is stored elsewhere (in a file that shouldn't be transferred). So, if your topmost savegame is labeled "Foo", and you copy a new save1.gam file into the folder, then the loading screen will still show "Foo" as the name of the first save. However, when you load it, the game will load the new file.

Alternatively, you can rename the savegame to save9.gam, and click on "Continue" in the main menu, or just run wizards.exe instead of magic.exe. This makes use of the temporary ninth save slot. But save the game in a "real" slot if you want to continue it later.

hmmm age of wonders is basicly a carbon copy of MoM... still the ai takes ages....

might try this 1.4

Plight looks good, going to try it out... along with h since I'm running f.   Played like 6 full games so far since EWOM 1.09 came out...still such a great game.
