Reply to A change in development strategy means a change for this Stardock fan in Galactic Civilizations III GalCiv3 Forums

I'm pretty sure you can always expect the current price of a Stardock game to be the highest price. GalCiv III was first available at $100, then $40 and now with the sale $25. It seems to me that the higher price is supposed to encourage the most ardent, enthusiastic fans to buy in and keep the more casual, less invested ones out, at least early in the process while they are still making heavy changes to the gameplay.

Army Size in Fallen Enchantress Elemental Forums

Maybe this is a dumb question but is there any way to see how big an army you can have? (without just randomly adding characters/warriors until someone can't be added) If not, it would be nice to have that listed somewhere, or maybe an icon that comes up that indicates you've reached you're limit?

Looking back on the save game, it looks like the problem is that there is a tower built right next to (or on?) the city.

[.992 BUG] Display resolution changing on game restart in FE Support Elemental Forums

My desktop resolution is 1920 x 1080. Whenever I set the game's resolution to 1920 x 1080, it will work in that resolution after I restart. However, the next time I restart the game it defaults to 1080 x 768. This also happens when I directly edit prefs.ini and/or settings.ini. Any other resolution below 1920 x 1080 seems to 'stick'. This only happens when I am running the game in User mode(my normal mode). This doesn't happen when running as an admin. Also, the 'Desktop&#

After my army conquers Rilkaz the opposing faction somehow ends up with one of their armies standing directly on top of the newly conquered city. I've tested this with both Autoresolve, and playing out the tactical battle. [Save] [Debug] <

Reply to Raise / Lower land Mana Cost-- Too High or Too Low in FE Beta Elemental Forums

Maybe it would be possible to scale the cost with the level of difficulty? That way novice players would get to go nuts with the spell but as they moved up in difficulty they would have to rely on it less & less.

Reply to Game is not living up to what I expected in FE Beta Elemental Forums

I think it might help the developers more if you could list the specific expectations you had going into this. The things you're mentioning sound more like play balance issues and/or bugs; i.e. things that (hopefully) won't be issues in the polished/finished product.

Reply to [.86 Balance] Grain is pointless until the endgame in FE Beta Elemental Forums

I wonder if the seeming excess food problem depends on your approach to the game. I tend to stick to just a few cities, or just one early on, and never thought excess food was an issue. I always want more. More prestige, more food, more growth. I guess I tend to fall into the "builder" camp. If wonder if this is an issue for the expander/war mongers, who never reach the pop cap (I'm constantly running into it, and trying to get past it).

It might not be a bad idea to have two versions: Lesser Maul & Greater Maul, so that low level monsters/characters can still be somewhat badass but not overpowering.

[1.05][Bug] Game Freezes in WOM Support Elemental Forums

Other posts seem to have similar problems with ATI based systems freezing. However, I thought I'd be as detailed about what's happening for me, in case it helps. The game will start out just fine and I'd be able to get into a Sandbox game with no problem (haven't tried anything else yet). It plays great and there are no issues (Although I did have to reduce the resolution to the same one I use for Civ 4). At some point I'll play out several tactical battles. The battles
