New patch?? - Page 2

Assuming 'kills me in the face' isn't copywrited, I'm going to have to try that out at the next party I attend.

I'd recommend playing LA Abysia, Kristoffer. I'm relatively new, but in one MP game I played it was pretty much agreed that they sucked donkey organ. Even quantum_mechanic more or less concurs.

Boy, what's the point of being a developer if you can't alter a patch in order to take advantage of it in a game your playing?

Thanks Edi!

Anyway, I think a nation will generally benefit from me playing it. So if there are other nations percieved as unfun, weak, or graphically unpleasant let me know for my next MP signup.

MA T'ien Ch'i.
MA Agartha.

We have some hope of T'ien Ch'i getting a facelift, if not now, perhaps in a later patch, since their unit graphics have come up as topic of discussion in the beta forum, but I have no idea of the status of that project. Kristoffer may know more.

MA Agartha, 2nded, it lacks diversity, I personally love golem cult but its too much of a one trick pony. I think some 'free' design points by giving it heat scale would help and the low attack values a killer but thematic so I don't really know what to about that. Takes far too long to get going in MP to be viable/competetive.

EA Marverni, weak early game, gets knocked out in MP very quickly.

MA Ulm, weak early game, even weaker mid game and no chance at all in the end game.

Other than those, considering how many nations are in the game, its amazing how well balanced the nations are vs each another.

So is Lugh a new nation or a set of guys under the fomorians? I can only find stuff on the 'net refering to it as a Tuathan/Fomorian sun-god.

The Lugh I know of is the national hero for Tir Na N'Og. Is this who you mean? He is very, very useful with lots of nice abilities/magic paths.

I really need to get cracking on the typos...

When you have the typos "fixed", would you open the patch up for peer review before it is applied? Then some other people have a chance to find things which you may have overlooked.

I'd nominate EA Ulm and second LA Aby for nations in need of work.
