Re: Extra secondary paths and fatigue reduction

Marverni Druids are sacred. Are you using any kind of Earth bless? A strong Earth bless might help with that fatigue.

Re: Vanarus, Machaka Lion Kings etc

Since Edi's asking, here are a few things I think could be improved with Machaka:

One think I wish Machaka would do would be to more fully embrace Ashanti mythology. The connection between an...

Re: Yet another new person with a question...

I kind of throw my hands up at trying to help anyone with this thread, any longer.

I'll just point out that I never suggested that someone from China wouldn't understand English, so there's no...

Re: Crossbows vs. Longbows

The modern use of the word "arbalest" tends to denote a steel crossbow, and is useful as such. The medieval word was indeed interchangeable.

Re: what about the future?

I was replying to Fantomen (which should be pretty clear, as his is the above post), rereferencing, and then inverting, my own quote, to make it clear that it wasn't seriously applicable to Shrapnel...

Wrana: I'm not sure if you're referring specifically to 'King Solomon's Mines', and not his later works, but Haggard wasn't writing about the Zulu in that particular book. The weapons he described...

Re: what about the future?

I disagree that trying to maintain order and politeness, as professionals trying to run a business, and then enforcing that, in a professional way, translates in any way to a state of fascism.

Re: Yet another new person with a question...

And how well did I do with that, before I got Domkilled, Mr. Ghost King I had to kill not once but twice?

Re: Yet another new person with a question...

You can do all of those things with EA Tien Ch'i, Squirreloid. Probably better, since you have more units to order around (and they're simpler and more straightforward than Niefels), and you can...

Yeah, I reported him after I asked him (politely) to no longer contact me, and he persisted. Tim's gonna sort him out.

Re: what about the future?

If only everyone could learn from their mistakes, and adjust their behavior appropriately, then noone would ever have to be banned. We all make mistakes, as human beings, afterall.

Re: Yet another new person with a question...

So, your argument is that new players playing Dom3 right out of the box should already be somewhat educated, and know their way around the Forums?

You'll run into just as much trouble from Wolf...

Re: Yet another new person with a question...

I'm not talking about what shiny thing attracts them. I'm talking about what's best for educating a new player.

And no, you don't need to do anything fancy, because I've tested it out myself.

Re: what about the future?

13? I kind of doubt that...I'm in my 30's (I'm quickly losing my hair, have a wife, a mortgage, gallstones, arthritis, the whole bit), and a lot of the players I know are older than I am.

Re: Crossbows vs. Longbows

Re: Yet another new person with a question...

I think you're missing the point I'm trying to make: that Niefelheim does not give you a huge amount of options to play successfully: It's got units that are there mostly for effect, unless you...

Re: what about the future?

Yeah, that did catch my eye, Wrana. I wonder what it was like? I imagine something like desert areas transforming into forests or swamps, which would be pretty neat.

Especially with things like...

Re: Yet another new person with a question...

It's Niefelheim.

You don't think Niefelheim would tend to promote a strong bless strategy to an inexperienced new player? If the obvious elements of the Nation didn't, then certainly the Forums...

Re: what about the future?

I don't know what the argument is. You've got a Forum, and that's great. The whole "but it's got this, and this, and this" effort is starting to sound just a tiny bit insecure at this point, however,...

Re: Yet another new person with a question...

The strong "forgiving" factor is partly why I recommended EA Tien Ch'i. I have a feeling that starting with Niefelheim promotes the desire for a "strong bless strategy", for all situations, which can...

Re: Vanarus, Machaka Lion Kings etc

I like Machaka for what it is. I see the main problem being that it's the only official southern/western African Nation in the game. There's room for plenty more. Maybe as many as Asia.
