Reply to [Bug][.80] Enemy takes Counter damage, without actual Counter Attack in Legendary Heroes Elemental Forums

I haven't noticed this bug from countered units dying, but I have when I attack a unit stack with counter and kill one or more units within the stack. Lots of times I've seen sword-wielding skeleton companies get attacked by my swordsmen, lose one or two, then see my guys' health drop with no counterattack visual.

Reply to Offer/Demand Tribute causing NAP-like conditions in Legendary Heroes Elemental Forums

[quote who="schattenjaeger" reply="3" id="3346721"] Are you sure this isn't new? I don't believe in coincidence strongly enough to accept that I didn't notice it sooner simply because of good timing...[/quote] Tribute has worked like a NAP pretty much since it was implemented. It's always been like that.

Reply to [Suggestion] Each Turn, Golden Belt Provides Gildar and Enchanted Backpack Provides Random Resource or Potion. in Legendary Heroes Elemental Forums

I think the enchanted backpack should spawn consumables like potions every so often, like 25% chance a turn to spawn a healing, growth, or speed potion, rather than global resources. After all, a crystal is much less useful to a roaming adventurer than a health potion. The golden belt actually producing gold is a spiffy idea as well.

Reply to Easy levels and War-Crazy AI. in Legendary Heroes Elemental Forums

[quote who="Trojasmic" reply="14" id="3346572"]Yeah it's funny. The AI declares war on Tatty playing easy, but I can't get them to declare war on me on Hard. Tatty you need to do more diplomacy like trade, economic, and technology treaties with the AI... they love that stuff. You also need to get the lead which is easy to do by leveling your heroes and cities then everyone will bow to you.[/quote] I remember back in FE that easy difficulties were a massive pa

Reply to Military Tech Tree Balance in Fallen Enchantress Elemental Forums

Other than Drills being lackluster, I think the warfare tech tree is pretty well set up as it is. Although, has anyone actually used catapults in this game? They seem out of place for the way this game's combat works.

Reply to [bug] steal spirt in Legendary Heroes Elemental Forums

Not a bug. Steal spirit will only give you bonus levels of a trait up to what the stolen champ's level was. For example, if you have life 3, and steal a life 1 champ, you would get no new spells because you already have life 1.

Reply to [0.80 Bug?] I think that Administrator 3 reduces unrest by 10% only once no matter how many champions have it in LH Support Elemental Forums

Can't tell you where you went wrong, but I can confirm that Administrator III is working properly. I currently have 4 units with the trait, and as expected, have -40 global unrest from them.

Reply to [.80 Bug] Captured city cannot be upgraded in Fallen Enchantress Elemental Forums

The AI settled a 0/0/0 tile, which is in itself a bug. Look at the bottom left of that screenshot, where it shows how much production/food/essence your city has. See how your city's got all those zeroes? That's a bug, and I've noticed it in FE as well.

This issue is still present as of .80. Currently have 2 obsidian golems wandering my territory, without any civ disturbing Imperium. Fortunately, tremor still works on them.

Reply to [Suggestion] Get rid of the "pack attack" in Fallen Enchantress Elemental Forums

[quote who="mqpiffle" reply="22" id="3343764"] There was a bug in the code that was causing the boni (sic) to increase exponentially per swarming unit instead of additively. It has been fixed for .80.[/quote] Wondered why I hadn't seen any of these swarming problems. As of .8, I think swarming is a nice little bonus. It makes large groups of weaker enemies a bit more challenging, while not completely overpowering things you would otherwise not be able

Reply to [0.75] Magnar and masterwork chainmail in Legendary Heroes Elemental Forums

Free chainmail for everybody! Seriously though, I think Magnar should lose the chain mail, and instead give Kraxis light plate. Makes more sense than 3 factions having the same trait.

[quote who="justinian66" reply="607" id="3315961"]I'm curious, would it be possible to add a Refinery type of ability to a starbase? The TEC starbase would be the obvious choice for which race would get it, but I'm wondering if thats even possible with the coding and all.[/quote] That could be an interesting ability for the Vasari starbase to have, either combined with or instead of their current econ bonus. Extra tax income kinda pales in comparison to the trade/allegia

[quote who="GoaFan77" reply="595" id="3313873"]Thanks Jarin, there is definitely something wrong here (I got 0.03 FPS at one point ). Still working on figuring it out. It only occurred well after the battle started though, not sure if that's the same thing you experienced.[/quote] That is exactly what I experienced, and after playing a few more games I have yet to see anything like it. Every other game I've played thus far works swimmingly. This mod is my favorite

Got the save game for you, Goa. Just take the fleet with the Coranata (hotkey for the fleet is 2, if that helps) and invade the dark green planet next to it. For me, results in crash every time. Surprised me to get such a massive slowdown, since I had actually had bigger battles before that one in previous saves, with more players on the field across multiple stars. Anyway, hope this helps . &nbs

Reply to [Mod] Enhanced 4X Mod (for Diplomacy 1.37, Rebellion 1.98, updated 12/20/23) in Sins Modding Sins Forums

I had this problem last night, Justinian. I was playing as Advent Loyalists, invading a TEC rebel world with a large fleet (Coronata, several capital ships, misc. ships both built and captured), and when my fleet met the enemy fleet, FPS drops to 0 and the game pretty much crashes. I'm pretty sure it's the particle effects, as every other graphics issue I can adjust hasn't appreciably improved my lag at this spot, and there are a LOT of support ships using animated abi

Reply to Recommend a spell-caster custom leader / faction for me in Fallen Enchantress Elemental Forums

Make a Quendar (Magnar-race) Warlock with Fire, Water, and Death magic, give the faction Flesh-Bound Tome and Death Worship, with a third point to use as you desire (Binding is fun), and spam as many stick-armed slaves as you can cram into your armies. They don't need to do anything more than die; you will be using them as meat shields, and sacrificing them for mana when they have outlived their usefulness. Congratulations, you now have the single most powerful spellcaster in

Reply to Can anybody explain how "Rush" buying is calculated? in Fallen Enchantress Elemental Forums

[quote who="ben_sphynx" reply="6" id="3276103"]It's quite simple - the cost of a building is a number of production points. Each turn, the cost remaining is reduced by your production as you build it. When the cost is reduced below 0 it finishes building. The rush cost is the number of remaining production points needed to finish it, but in gold. And rounded up to 25g if the building requires less than 25 production. Except if you have a black marke

Reply to Should a Magic-heavy faction like Resoln or Paridan even bother with towns? in Fallen Enchantress Elemental Forums

I usually build one town on a low/no-essence settlement, one fortress in a high-production spot that ideally has 2 essence, and have most of my other settlements become conclaves. I do like to keep things balanced to satisfy my neuroses, but I generally lean conclave-heavy.

Reply to So, was Relias drinking, gambling, and whoring since he was a baby? in Fallen Enchantress Elemental Forums

I'm willing to bet that the average lifespan in the world of Elemental is at most 40. Between horrible sanitary practices, close proximity of the few survivors, and the fact that there are horrible monsters literally waiting outside the walls to eat your brains, it's quite likely that Elemental's society is similar to that of the Dark Ages, when people would get married around 12-14 and then die at age 30ish from the plague. Given that, it's entirely likely that he

I would also like it to give a stronger version of the hatchet, just because a piddly 2 weapons for 1 faction point seems like a weak tradeoff.

Reply to [1.0-1.004] Master Scouts in FE Support Elemental Forums

This game needs an ability like Master Scouts for new players, or for those who wish to ignore monsters (why on earth anyone would want to ignore a third of the game is beyond me, but whatever). Especially for new players, the monsters pose a significant challenge, and being able to engage them on your own terms is great for figuring out how to engage certain monsters.

Reply to Incorrect Hit Chance Percentage in Fallen Enchantress Elemental Forums

I have found that the percentages are pretty accurate when averaged out over the course of all my games. However, the rolls in this game are truly random, which unfortunately means that, even at a 75% chance to hit, you can have a string of just bad luck that seems to stretch out forever. I've had entire fights where almost every roll seemed to be a miss, or my high-dodge people got hit every time. Unfortunately, that's the nature of luck, and you'll find that in
