Show age of Commanders

Show the age of commanders in both the unit and National Overview screen. Age plays an important role in Dom3, it would be nice to know the age of commanders. The game currently only show old age.

When viewing a commander, click on "fatigue" to see the age.
If you havent, you should click on everything in that view. The words and the icon pictures. Most of them give info you might want.

Default Re: Wish List for next patch

I have essentially only two big wishes for the next update. One is to have a seperate binary for textmode dedicated servers, which does not need the mesa/glide and SDL libs. It's a pain in the *** to install these libs only because of depency trouble, even though they are not used at all for a dedicated server. If you're not root, you might not even be able to install these libs at all.

I forgot the other request...

I will second the text-mode server request.

Default Wish for the next patch

I wasn't able to find a thread like that ... if it is already somewhere, please point me out and I'll remove this.

There are some things I remember I was looking for since Dom2 and are still not there ... so, I'll try to post my greatest wishes:

1. detalied battle reports including initial units and killed units per type

2. possibility to optionally allow/disable use of gems in cast scriptiing

3. a cathegory in the build objects menu that list all the avaible "magic boosting" objects

good play
Liga

Ciao liga!

1) IMHO unlikely to happen
2) IMHO extremely unlikely to happen
3) Manual?



For me, I'm hoping sooner or later for the "forge monthly" command like, dunno... "Manna from Heaven"?

Default Re: Suggestions for the next patch

1. something different for nature 9 bless power, berserk +2 is not particularly powerful or useful and is undesirable most of the time. Perhaps resist all elements 25%?

2. When the computer creates a title for you pretender, have two option buttons available "Regenerate name" and "Regenerate title". Really nice for SP and not obviously broken for MP either.

(unlikely) 3. Rework shield/missile mechanics so missiles aren't shockingly useless against shields and devastating to troops without them. Have countermeasures to mist and storm, perhaps via a general Battlefield enchant dispel?

4. Something (summons?) to beef up nature magic, it seems a bit disadvantaged.

Just wishing,

Rabe

1. I find berserk +2 useful on plenty of sacred troops. Not so much on commanders, it's true, but the bonus to protection, attack and strength from berserk can be extremely useful, as can your troops winning a battle after you side has routed.

3. This could be done via a mod. Reduce the parry value on all shields and reduce the damage value of all projectiles.
