woot woot! first reply. better try to make it a good one...

Has consideration been made for 'lesser' sight spells that you can cast along the way to this overpowered Ineluctable Vision??
 

I'm very glad minor balancing details are still on your list for considerations. Unless there is objection, I will post suggestions for balance changes in this post as I come across them.

woot! Freeze and Tremor too??

edit: umm...y doesn't it quote properly? Edit2: Fixed.

Looks like a good start! Any UI changes planned?

Dear Derek and Brad,

Could you PLEASE add the functionality of notifying us not only when a hostile army enters our territory but also when NEUTRAL armies (of the other UIs) enter our territory?

I am hoping this would be a small change, using the same UI and functionality of the hostile army notification (an icon on the RHS - clicking on it goes to the army) but it would be a GREAT benefit to all of us players who have to keep "visually" patrolling their borders in order to find neutral armies / pioneers and tell them to get off their land, only to have them do it again in the next turn... 

It also eliminates an unfair advantage, since the AIs presumably have an instant (coded) notification when we enter their territories, while we have to visually check all our borders EVERY TIME

I hope this is a simple enough fix that you can include it in 1.4 ... 

Thanks again for a great game that is quickly evolving to legendary status, 

This is already in the game. If you look at the minimap it has red dots for neutral and enemy armies. I find this easier then the notification system built in the game. 

RE: Adding the Fallen Enchantress Scenario

This is awesome! Thank you!

Yep second that, great to have the FE scenario added.

If there is any chance of getting the AI to cast the odd tactical summons?   Seems to be something that prevents it, there never seems to be a tactical summons used by the AI ever.

Um, please?

You need to remove the "quoting="post"" part if you want multiple non-nested quotes in a reply for some reason. Just normal {quote}{/quote} tags work.

thanks!

 @ SD:

- Can the Pyre of Man summoning spell be boosted in some fashion? Currently it's quite....well....let's just say that the Grave Elemental route will always be picked.  I'm NOT saying 'nerf Grave'...   imo that's a really good, well balanced, end-tree summoning spell.

- Also, I noticed in a recent game that the Air Elemental Scroll costs mana to summon the Air Elemental. Why is that? If I recall correctly, Fireball Scrolls and Wellspring Scrolls do not cost mana to cast. I don't think the other Elemental summons do either. Seems like an odd ball in that scrolls are loot or purchasable items and should not require mana to cast.

AI

AI won't cast wither on armies without an attack (caravans) anymore 

Can we make is so that the AI wont cast freeze and tremor on caravans too? 

Thanks for all the great work!

Heck yes, having them spam tremor on a caravan every single turn is so maddeningly annoying, especially when they tell you how awesome they are in a pop-up for having cast it, every time. I tend to declare war on whoever I have the trade route with just so I can kill the trade route and stop the spam.

Any chance of setting a custom wander AI on Vetrar, the Wanderer of Worlds, Delin and other wildlands beasties so that they don't leave their wildlands?  How about allowing the AI to use Summons?

+2 this needs to be addresed

i guess this makes it +3

Sounds like the last of my AI modifications has been absorbed

I'm liking these changes thus far. Good work.

Is it possible that a mod does this?  I have the same issue in my games, Air Elemental and Burning Wraith (the ones I've tested) require mana to cast.  What's worse, if you don't have the mana to cast it and you try to cast it, it is used up at the end of the battle.
