Re: is this an AI trick? or does it really work?

Re: Exalted Mod

Hmmm...

Ok more ideas:

The blood was supposed to represent a thorough search through the populace to root out Solars. You find lots of people, check, and find 1 is a Solar.

If every Solar...

Re: Exalted Mod

Just had an idea:

Swop blood magic for Exalted summoning.

You can recruit normal humans, and you can have people out looking for Exalted. When you've looked enough (lots of blood slaves) you...

Re: Exalted Mod

To get the flavour right Exhalted need to be able to deal with TONS of normal troops, without special equipment. I'd suggest lowering the power of all the infantry units, and making those multi-path...

Re: Mod Idea (Noob.)

I think that you got two races the wrong way around:

Marignion are more similar to Bretonnia, and Ulm to the Empire, from what I understand.

Re: How do YOU play the game?

Given that there are only two ways to ultimately survive the ascension wars

1) Don't be a pretender, and get lucky.
2) Be a pretender and win.

And that you are forced to play a pretender,...

Re: Can I get some cheese with that...

Can't remember who it was, but I just read all this debate, and someone said something like:

Re: -=- Dom2 on sale! -=-

You distrust patches because they always break something?

Are you not ignoring all the previously broken stuff (that you presumably hated from the previous patch) that they fix?

Re: Two Birds with One Stone Suggestion

Clams only work when equipped on mages?

Re: TRUE effectiveness of VQ/castling/clam-hoarding

Re: Can I get some cheese with that...
