Two interface suggestions:

[rabelais]

LOVE this game. Just Awesome.

BTW- The undead race is "broken", as they used to say in MtG. I assume they get gangtackled in MP?

Curse shields are too.

Oh, about the interface....

Please make research sliders lockable. Micromanaging is hell without it.

Make visually clear (grey?) which magic items one has the gem resources to build, without removing the info as such. Annoying to have so many options and have to hunt forever to find what is actually buildable.

Also decoupling the god files from the nations would be lovely.

Longer scripts and scripting improvement to control(prevent) gem/slave use by the AI seems like it would be a very positive change, if it's feasable.

Thanks for a basically perfect game !!
