Re: What is really new?
Simple A.I Diplomacy would be a start.Non-aggression treatys and alliances.Simple trade pacts like in SEIV that give a certain resource percent.The lack of SP diplomacy is big disapointment.All the other modern 4x games have A.I diplomacy.It adds greatly to the roleplaying.  |

Re: What is really new?
A little off the thread's current topic, but I like being able to summon 14 Corpse Men with one death gem.
Hee hee hee!

It's Air first, Death second, so Air gem.
And how is that? With a Staff of Storms? Lightning Rod only gives 4 per summon, perhaps 14 is a typo? If that's really possible, add me to the club. Corpse Men armies!   |

Exactly. I checked it - 6 Corpse Men with a Staff of Storms (Air 4, costs 25 gems with the new formula), 4 with a Lightning Rod (Earth 1, 5 gems). Maybe 14 was a typo for 4? |

I'm guessing it was the new air/death book artifact + staff. |

Re: What is really new?
Quantum also just said the same thing on IRC. 2A2D Artifact for Misc slot. This could be interesting.
Also, imagine a Nataraja with two Lightning Rods! Caelum even has four-armed Air/Death pretender! 7 20-hp undead every turn from turn X very early in the game? Needs starting Earth income, Earth and Death mages to make the Rods and to lead the Corpse Men, and... doesn't work. Grr. They don't stack.  |

But staff of storms and lightning rod together would stack, wouldn't they? |

Re: What is really new?
Yeah, lightning rod + book. My mistake on the gem type.
Would two rods/staves stack? In any case you could have one of each, right? They're not bad at .05 of a gem each...  |
