Played 1.2f for about an hour last night. Thanks for getting the glitch fixed. Some comments: - Game seemed a little less stable. First time in awhile it stopped working so soon (about 1 hr into game, 3 cities, only one other faction met). - Lots of problems with portraits not appearing (black) and then coming back later. This happened in spell book when researching new spells and also with cities and resources. - Rat's Nest

[quote who="Buladelu" reply="24" id="2954560"]Why do you spend time on War of Magic still? Don't you want to make absolutely perfectest game with Fallen Enchantres? I'd rather wait for couple of month more and get OMG TEH BEST GAEM EVA then get slightly better War of Magic... Which I hadn't played since 1.1. [/quote] IMHO - Because EWOM is Frogboy's baby. He won't (can't) abandon it until it grows up to be something he's happy with. It does
Agree with both Murteas and jecjackal, forcing us to make choices about which champions to keep instead of just hiring everyone that comes along because I've got too much money & nothing to spend it on sounds like a good thing strategy wise. Also want to add my vote to fixing training time. Question: Are you using the player lag as a way to make the AI tougher, i.e. they get training time reduced? Seems the AI gets bigger groups faster. &n
[quote who="jecjackal" reply="1" id="2954200"] Don't lose faith frogboy. I am getting the "one more turn" compulsion in 1.2c. [/quote] Yes. So very close.
[quote quoting="post"] I am very pleased where this game is going. Keep up the great work guys. [/quote] I'll second that Jec! Here's some highlight's of my 1.2c game after 150 turns (large map, hard, epic pacing, 5 opps, ceated Sov) - Lots more resources. 1st City had Lost Library & there was another nearby for 2nd city. At least 4 Oasis within easy range. This starting position was
[quote who="Nakisisa" reply="25" id="2949766"]Somethings I have noticed. In the pregnant wolf quest/event? you're asked if you'd like to expend 5 essence to help it. I said yes got two pups but lost spell casting ability on my sovereign. I had forgotten that while hidden essence is still linked to spell casting ability. Is it meant to cost you so much for two units? Nakisisa[/quote] I also had this happen. I found I cound cast spells on the ma
Only played about a 1/2 hour, but game definitely seems to have a better pace. Also seeing problem with abandoned villages showing up on cloth map but not in 3d. Here is saved game showing that. http://dl.dropbox.com/u/16706254/Jim12b_4.EleSav
[quote who="Kaesho" reply="13" id="2949642"]How do i update/run to 1.2b? still on 1.2a on impulse with no option to update[/quote] Here's a link to the Impulse guide: http://www.impulsedriven.com/help See #10 - Preferences. The item you want is "Show pre-release versions". If you check this box you'll be able to play 1.3 betas as they come out.
[quote who="Lord Xia" reply="26" id="2948359"]This is the only game that after 3 major patches will actually have less content than when it was released.

All in all, I'd say this looks pretty positive. Can't wait to give the new version a test drive. Thanks to all.
If you've checked out the all the updates then you should know that no changes to content will be made until 1.3.
Still Needed: Unit Abilities: ?- Unit starts at 2nd level Warrior's Way Armor: ?- A magical breastplate with increased defense Aegis of the Scrap Golem Monsters: ?- Better name for a Green Dragon ?- Better name for a Red Dragon ?- Better name for
Darklands!!!! I loved that game. I still have the original box with the manual, foldout map and 3.5" Floppies. Oh discordia, where have the good games gone. Sometimes I truly believe that graphics killed gameplay.
From all of us who play EWOM (or those who only hope to want to someday), thank you Frogboy for your dedication to this game.
Hiring Derek may prove to be Frogboy's best move to date. Unfortunately some people will still be upset with anything less that an updated MOM clone. I'll just be happy with a good free game.
I'm pretty sure they've said that FE will be digital download only. So any manual will be digital.
http://dl.dropbox.com/u/16706254/Jim2_66.EleSav I been playing this game since 1.2 came out. Not a test of strategy because I'm playing on easy. I just wanted to see how much I could discover. If you want to see how the game runs when 1 player max's just about everything out this is that game. I really tried to play as magic user.
I'll give him the benefit of the doubt & say he's just asking when we'll see a 1.3 Beta. To all the Dev's & Frogboy - I've been playing the heck out of 1.2 and enjoying it. I also can't wait to see what the 1.3 Beta's add.
Here is a link to a FAQ for beginners post. Some of it is a little dated, but the general concepts still apply. Good work phazonfreak. https://forums.elementalgame.com/393014 This one is also a little dated, but Wintersong did an excellent job covering EWOM. Well worth your time.

mentalinstra is right, no more beta's for awhile now that 1.2 is out. I don't know if there was a post with the info that you're looking for, but here's a link to the Impulse guide: http://www.impulsedriven.com/help See #10 - Preferences. The item you want is "Show pre-release versions". If you check this box you'll be able to play 1.3 betas when they come out.
Played 1.2 for about 2 hours. Very stable & very close, IMO, to what the game should have been on release. However, still got an OOM trying to load game in game. I like to play large map (standard) with custom Sov, so I sent save file. Let me know if anything else will help. Great job. Keep up the good work. Can't wait for 1.3 (and FE). <a href="http://dl.dropbox.com/u/16706254/Elemental1_2-2011-05-03T15-39-44-30

Here's the link to CariElf's "how to post a problem" post. https://forums.elementalgame.com/391297 I use Dropbox instead of Pastebin. It's free and super easy to use. https://www.dropbox.com/ Don't expect an answer from the Dev's, but they most certainly read these posts and use your files to help clean up their code.
