Its good to see a positive review for this game. I give the game a 9/10 also, I was expecting a 5 or 6/10 game from all that I was reading but man thsi game is tons of fun. It coudl be a 9.5 or 10/10 if the late gaem slowdown gets fixed and some of the ai gets worked out (: Its got nothign to do with me being a stardock fanboy, I have only bought 3 of there games and have enjoyed 2 out of those 3. Yes it has problems but to me PERSONALLY.. this is the best game

[quote who="searro" reply="91" id="2746780"]i come back to Gamekult in french who puts a 3/10. QUOTE : 'complètement déséquilibré (il faudra une armée d'unités de corps à corps pour éliminer ne serait-ce qu'un mage)' = completly unbalanced ( you will need an army of soldiers to simply kill 1 mage)... That's absurd, i really don't know where the writter saw this.I think he wasn't playing

[quote who="Qyth" reply="7" id="2746260"]Here is his explanation on the quote. Hi all. Sorry for some of the confusion here, I wanted to clarify: Some folks have correctly pointed out that multiplayer wasn't available at the time I wrote this. Sorry to have implied that I actually played the multiplayer -- reading this over, I worded it poorly: the point I was making was the fact that the game allows (purportedly) a large number of players to

Going to have to try that mod! A dog companion sounds great!
Thats my only issue with the game.. the lategame slows down alot. But I hear they are working on a fix (;
Great to hear! I love this game so much and I agree its Stardocks best game yet! There are some issues (slowdown later on and issues with the magic and Ai), but man I am lovign this game. Its the best game ive played in years and years. I game alot but I have not been this hooked on a game in ages and it sounds like it will only get better! Good luck to yourself, Brad and the crew!

Quoting MxM111, reply 10 Did you report your first screenshot as problem with the border bug? Not only is my first screenshot an example of the border bug, it's an example of how alt-tabbing out and back (to start Fraps, in my case) can remove the city overlays!
Nice screenshots dudes! I will post more screenshots later on today!
Well so far I have been enjoying this game alot, only had one crash and really the only issue I have is the lategame slowdown (which I see will be fixed soon). But what bothered me today was that two times out of maybe 15 tactical battles that I did, would get stuck. First few rounds went out.. then after there turn is done and it says MY TURN.. it wont let me move or attack with any player. I can move my mouse around ok and what not, but its like the SKIP TURN, ATTACK and MOVE d
The first few hours where the hardest for me. But a few days later I am now pretty familiar with the game. Only thign I need to improve on is using magic which I havnt really jumped into fully yet.

[quote who="Windexglow" reply="5" id="2742590"]8 AI on the smallest map on easy. I get lucky by having only 2 chokepoints between me and the mighty yellow empire. I close the left-most entrance as much as I can (to the point where I don't think AI would use it), and concentrate my meager defenses to the north. http://img827.imageshack.us/img827/5005/elemental20100829001739.jpg http://img28.imageshack.us/img28/9224/elemental20100829001729.jpg http://img20
