The legendary Emerald Warriors of the Petrified Moss don't mess around. They may not look like much, but they will fly into an intense rage when damaged(+5!). If an Emerald Warrior is reduced to 0 hp, they use the secret untagged Emerald Warrior power - turning into a bear.  From here their only in a mild rage (+0!) And get some regen. But shapeshifting takes a toll on the Emerald Warrior. It's a burden they have to accept to achieve power. If he survives the battle, one is never the same again.  They are cursed to live out the rest of their (very, very short) lives as extremely old human assassins. baronb fucked around with this message at 16:13 on Mar 8, 2014 |

Did someone finally make a comprehensive change list somewhere? I'm interested in this game, but not enough to spend 40$ on it sight unseen. A few minor interface improvements wouldn't be worth that much money for me, I want to know exactly how much content was added and what it is. Apparently Illwinter can't be arsed to tell us themselves.

One thing I would love were buttons to adjust values by 5 or 10, instead of one. I like to put 5 or 10 PD in my provinces, and casting a big spell with 20 additional gems can get tiring. And I am always afraid that somebody will snap up important mercenaries, so I don't mind spending 50 gold more than the suggested amount, but it leads to too much clicking.

Use the arrow keys! I thought the clicking was annoying too until I discovered that.

Or he was riding a fossil giant  It took me ages to realize that when adjusting research it only took from the highest bar until there was 2+ even, then it'd take from all equally. Now I can actually research more than 3 things at once when I have a bunch of points.

Cardiovorax posted:Where in the manual? I can only find that vague list of new stuff right in the beginning, which isn't very comprehensive. I don't understand what exactly you are expecting, here, from a game developed by two people in their free time. There's the list you already know about in the manual, you can probably find a few fan-compiled ones (that you'd have as good odds of finding on google as anyone else), and there's the changelog http://www.desura.com/games/dominions-4-thrones-of-ascensions/changelog/ . Beyond that, the big question is whether or not you want to play multiplayer, use new/updated mods, have a continually improving/patched game and so on. If you are content with playing Dom3 as it was when Dom4 was released, then just stick with that? Azram Legion fucked around with this message at 20:50 on Mar 8, 2014 |

Cardiovorax posted:I don't really play multiplayer, so I basically just want to know whether there's enough new content to keep me entertained in singleplayer for a while, because I basically played Dom3 to death. I've been a fan of the series for ages, but 25€ is a lot of money for me right now. I guess I can just wait for the next sale, though. If you don't want to develop carpal tunnel syndrome after moving one too many armies around, buy Dom4 as fast as possible. Believe me, it is worth it.

IMPORTANT: EVERYONE IN INFINITY CUP Here is a new mod file that fixes a problem that we've discovered in the process of testing the nations more thoroughly. Everything remains the same numbers and such, but certain weapons weren't working correctly. Please pass this information along to the other players if you can. Mod is here, and also on Brainwrinkle.

Eriu suffers from being difficult to play well. A good player can get a lot of power out of them, while LA Pan has a pretty solid roster that a relatively new player can play decently. MA in general also seems to be played less than LA or EA.

Dryad Hoplites are pretty great too with their +2 awe, throw a cheapo W9 bless to put them up to 20 def and you've got some of the best line infantry in the game.

Flavahbeast posted:theyve only got one attack and it doesn't hit very hard, I don't like em Sure they're not amazing offensively, but you don't use them for offense; they're line infantry not assault infantry. LA Pan is a bit lacking in the 'heavy hitters' department but Grove Guard, Centaur Cataphracts and Satyr Snipers can all work for that role if you can scrape together the resources for them. The thing about Dryad Hoplites is their def + awe means that they will basically never lose a melee fight non-mindless infantry and their shield means that unlike a lot of infantry sacreds they're not vulnerable to archers. If your enemy wants to break a frontline of Dryad Hoplites he needs to bring in tramplers or spells because no non-mindless melee unit in the game will be able to reliably or easily break a line of w9 blessed Dryad Hoplites. This also makes them amazing at obliterating indies.
