I think Derek's design intent is that 'sharp' is basically the crit pre-fix and that he wants to keep the actual attack numbers the same across the same basic weapon type. Imo it matters more that the sell prices/rarity number are in line with the amount of an upgrade it is. That will designate where it falls in balance with other weapons.

[quote who="GFireflyE" reply="15" id="3244323"]@Kestral2040 Ironically that movement crash just happened to me again. I shall send the files to [email protected] entitled "FE crash from moving my hero" [/quote] haha awesome (well not awesome, but useful). Get the dump, save and debug in there if you can along with what you were doing when it crashed if you can :) I'll have support get it to me so I can get it to a dev

I don't think snaking is something that really can be turned on/off with an option as it's kind of a game design choice, plus it would be difficult supporting/balancing two different modes of play that drastically alter gameplay as opposed to just interface/visual stuff. Thanks again for the feedback and any time people can get reproducible crashes it's extremely helpful so let us know if you get any :) a reproducible set of actions/save are

[quote who="GFireflyE" reply="1" id="3243599"] [Bug] Snaking to rivers and forests still doesn’t exist. It seems VERY silly that I cannot be allowed to snake to the river in this situation: http://imageshack.us/a/img715/2018/game11bugsnaking.jpg [/quote] City snaking is a mechanic we have tried to remove and I personally really dislike, thus the de-emphasis on building location and such... I personally think it's a much more interesting decision as to if y

I agree that some of these abilities might need some work to be on line with others... but I personally think Summoner, Warlord and Beastlord are just as useful as the 3 you mentioned depending on your playstyle. edit: diplomat is also really, REALLY good

value is generated in context to what you are doing, so if you are looking at something in your inventory it's how much money you will sell it for... if you are looking at something on a shopkeeper it will be how much you buy it for. That being said, looks like the sharp broadsword probably has too high of a value, we will look at balancing those out a bit (our intent is not that you can replace economic growth with just selling loot but more supplement it)

[quote who="Gaunathor" reply="11" id="3243244"] Quoting Kestral2040, reply 10So long story short: I like what you guys are saying but need to think of a different way to say it How about "Increases taxable income by +X"? [/quote] I like this, however, I think it might make it even more confusing to brand new players (taxable income being more of an economics term). I'm talking to Derek and we will see what we end up with... Also worth noting there are m

I don't think that wording works for the layout of our tool-tips, we want to keep all numerical information in line together column wise (it makes it much easier for players to read) so adding two words in front of the numbers wouldn't work... I could add it to the descriptions, however, even then we are trying to go away from explicit numbers in our improvement descriptions. It avoids redundant information (since the numbers are above anyways) and makes them not have to be upda

Also keep in mind that cities can only be built a certain distance from other cities so sometimes an area you might otherwise be able to settle in could look un-settleable (now there's a word for ya) due to that. The yields are generally dynamically generated from the surrounding terrain and you are correct, rivers do have good yields around them. The yields displayed on one tile are actually the sum of the individual tile yields of all adjacent tiles. If you have played Civ

[quote who="Mistwraithe" reply="12" id="3242849"]OK, well the Altar who was annoying me by not getting attacked was in fact Lady Irane who, as we all know, is the built in Tarth leader, and has the Scouts ability so maybe that is acceptable. BUT in that case I would like to register a new bug: Why is Lady Irane, the Tarth leader, in charge of a faction called Altar with the Altar symbol and Altar colour? And in the same game as another Altar faction with the same s

The Mana and Gildar income tool-tips don't have a city by city breakdown because with the potential for there being money/mana going out and more possible income sources we didn't want them to be too overwhelming.... Also, there is a detailed breakdown of gildar in the ledger (easiest to get to by clicking the gildar at the top of the screen). That being said, in hind sight it might be worth re-visiting, will look into how much work it would be to break it out into individual ci
