Actually, I'm quite positive that decapitation is an affliction which is already in the game. Although I've only seen it on Soulless, presumably because it's the only unit which can still function without a head. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/happy.gif

Head protection and body protection already exist as separate values, and AFAIK, they are the only values the game uses in fights. Head hits are only affected by head protection. Small units can't hit big units in the head in melee, and some afflictions are based on the hit bodypart ( only headhits cause eyeloss etc).

Oh yes, with spurting blood too. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/wink.gif

Personally, I would love to see some diplomacy in the singleplayer game. Give us some gameplay options, instead of constant, mindless war.

I was thinking, not only blood-geysers, but head-graphics actually falling to the ground, bouncing around, and being kicked repeatedly across the battlefield. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/happy.gif

Hows about a continue button on start up like MOO 2 has?

I would like to be able to jump straight back to the last game I was playing against the computer without going through the list of saved games trying to figure out which one it was.

The button I press most of the time in MOO 2 is the very top one putting me right back to where I stopped with no thought required on my part.

It does have that, in a linux sort of way. On the command line you can give the name of the game to go right into it.

With Windows or Mac you can create a desktop link for your game which takes you right into it. You can also add other switches such as one to kill the credits for a faster quit.

I also like to use the desktop icon settings to set things that I continually change on every game I start. Like turning on renaming, setting the indepts higher, setting the magic sites higher. That way when I get to that screen, those settings are already chosen the way I like.

Has anyone mentioned naval battles yet? It would definitely require a new dimension (literally).

-I would like a big red X to appear over unique artifacts that have been forged. the greying out is not always helpful.

-I would like the path requirements to be listed in the artifacts decription

-I would like to be able to give commanders battle scripting from the main screen. or at least be able to click on them and bring up scripting screen for them only (I get confused with dozens of identical commanders)

-I would like to see more levels of experince, why a 5 star limit?

Re: Wish-List for Dominions 4
 

Good idea about battle scripting for individual commanders. This is a better solution IMHO than being able to rearrange the order of commanders on the army setup screen.
