1. How do you increase the size of a city, is by having more food make you get different level cities? 2. What is world research? 3. Heros kind of suck unless there spell casters 4. How fast should one expand . and for that matter how do you use caravans

well the maps are random I thought atleast it is seeded randomly and you start in different locations. I am actuall ok with this type of randomization
Agree until I can play an undead king, AOW is still my favorite, but at the same time, I am only at 85% download right now so who knows by this afternoon I might disagree
well its downloading for me right now on impulse
well as long as 90% of your gripes is there is no manual and poor documentation, and we can ask on the forums everything should be fine
So I see a lot of complaints here and there, this patch thats coming out, is it coming out today with the version the pre orders get to download or tomorow and also what specificly did the patch fix. Is tehre a way to forge magic items? Although I have to admit atleast in AOW with that ability yo practicly created gods.
So there is supposed to be a patch coming out the day of the game. my ? is have the patch notes been realised yet, this games seems very buggy right now. I have a duplicate post for some reason its showing up about 10 minutes after I post, delete this or dont respond.
I cant seem to figure out what ten unique factions means because there all human it seems. do they all have different army types to draw from. Are there magic schools such as fire, water, death etc. How good is diplpmacy in sins it was almost non existant. how big are the tactical battles is it like AoW once unit at a time or more like MoM where there were massed little groups.
So there are no beast units, I cant have a goblic or orc or dark elf kingdom. there is no item crafting. So exactly what is this game, is it like civilization but just in the middle ages?
Did I hear correctly that you can only have human factions. This is a monumental mistake for a game thats wants to be a deficitive fantasty turn based game. Its not original except in the sense that its dull. I want to be able to play as an undead warrior and spread death as I walk. I dont want to have to go to school to learn programming skills to mod it. Please tell me this info is wrong.
I want masters of magic 2 , but age of wonders shadow magic is decent
Obama has not changed a thing it was not a land slide popular vote victory it was close, liberals still are the ones who are more agressive if you say you dont agree with them. the policitcal climate is just as polarized as it ever was. look at the votes in congress they come down to democrat vs republican almost down party lines, thats means there is no change.
am I the only one that thinks the ipad is the dumbest name ever. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lsjU0K8QPhs
were teams locked? if not that means there alliance can degrade over time and allow you them to put bounty on each other
I want more movies, I want a movie for Victorys(winnding the game not just a planet) and a Movie for Losing the game. Also more diplomatic options would nice or fixing it. AI would be nice, What about more a variety in Planetary Defenses with missles actually lauching from the planey surface etc.
I am pretty hanger centric person my self, but I always try to have a couple gun/missle platforms near trade depots. But never more then 1 or 2.
I admit I think realism is the wrong word, I think hegmonia had the best system for moving around, it would of been nice to have a huge free form solar system with pahse lanes connecting other solar systems only. still love this game, think I like the Advent best overall though. Would love to see a campaign in an expansion.
is it possible to link other star systems together by phase lanes other then the suns? Or perhaps only by a wormhole, I would rather see interconnected solar systems instead of one solar system with 50 planets on it.
I like the game as is, its allows for reinforcements to arrive in, and also gives you time to micor manage abilities. You sure fighters out do damage then bombers?
I had this two, I did it with 5 cap ships and fired 5 cannons into the system before I iniated a jump on 3 sides. That was an awesome fight.
Dont listen to the nah sayers this game is great. I was playing random map with 3 ai free for all. snagged 3 nice planets pretty quick, then I slowly started 2 attack 2 ai simultanusly, after realizing the error of my ways I leave a sizable defense fleet at one planet that is loaded with defenses and its the one the vasari keep attacking. Now to deal with the advent, with 2 battleships and nice size fleet I finaly end the stale mate with the advent and kick them out of a s
I get tired of consntant pirates raids so I went to go get rid of them but no luck, there home system was huge, wiped out my 2 capital ship fleet. It had hundres of ships they were bigger then my actual enemy the TEC. Also whats the point of the bountry system it seems that my enemy always seems to out bounty me in the last second.
Still dont see why turrets cant work, I have played HW2 in some massive games 4v4 and with 100's of ships all with turrets etc and I can play the game fine. And that game is 5 years old It could just be the coding of Sins, its not efficient. Or it could just be an option the developers could not get arround too, but to say it cant be done is lazy. It can be done just they do not want to devote the resources to it and I can respect that.
Are there actually solar systems you fly to or only planets. Linked together.
hmm thats a bummer I liked to zoom in on my frigates and destroyers and watch the gun turrets allign before letting of a salvo. Hopefully it wont detract that much.
