  1. Like both DA and Stuart said... we will have 2 types of beta testers.

    1) Serious Testers - filling out Q and A forms, we actually take their recommendations seriously.

    2) Hardware Testers - Basically all we are asking is for people to play the game on their machine to see if there is any glitches with the game being played with different combinations of hardware on peoples computers.

    Soooo... how its determined what type you are will be:

    Group #1 - You will be invited by the head of beta testing - Phoenix_Dragonslayer. Or if send a request to him and he accepts your request.

    Group #2 - We will do random signup sheets, and also use things like forum points as 'payment' for your own beta copy.

    Thats about how it will work. Also this isn't for a long time too. We are talking at least a year from now. So don't worry to much about it ;)

  2. The supply unit was implimented in a game called Celtic Kings. Have you guys ever played that? Though realistic I found the more frustrating than anything. It was just one more thing to manage when your trying to wage war.

    You guys should download the demo and play it before you decide if you like supply units or not ;)

    If the supply unit didn't have to be in a certain radius of units and instead only in the 'territory', then I think it might work.. but eh.. to much hassle this gammer ;)

  3. I was thinking/wondering if we could adjust (if its possible) the ammount of threads shown in general chat to a higher number... There is so many topics going to fast, I'd like to see them all on one page? Maybe 40 instead of 20?

    Or can I do this in my personal settings?

  4. Yeah there are what you would call unique units. I think we are actually calling them 'super' units. But they will have unique traits that are only availible to those type of units.

    For example... the Persians have:

    Immortal - which is a good lightly armored unit with strong attack

    Indian War Elephant - Slow moving unit with lots of hitpoints... little skimmishers on the back throwing spears.

    Each civ will have 2-3 super units.

  5. What do you think about the future? I don't mean you should expose your futuristic sci-fi imagination, but rather what you think current society is evolving to. Do you think our Western ignorance and lazyness means the end of a great civilization or do you rather think modern technologies will save the world? Will the world become more honest for any human being, and eventually come to global peace, or will the current situation continue or even escalate?

    So, go aheadĀ 

    The future is what you make of it :) How is that for being phylisphical?

    I do think that Western Civ's lazyness and the desire for the rest of the world to be 'king of the hill' will have a bad effect on this world. I think of it almost as what happened to Rome. Each civilization has power curve. There is a name for it, but I forget... goes something like: Bondage, Rebelion, Indepenance, Prosperity, Glutany... then back to Bondage. I think the typical time period for the curve is about 200 years.

    More technology will ever save mankind. If anything it will make us destroy ourselves faster. 2000 years ago it took empires to do great destruction on fellow humans, 200 years ago it took nations, 50 years ago it took a score of people... and soon it will only take 1 person to cause mass destruction. How can you combat that one rougue individual @#$%-bent on destruction? You can't.

    Sorry if I sound depressing... but there is only one answer to solve the worlds problems. And He is comming.

  6. Actually there are a few advantages and disadvantages for roads, they can lead you to the enemies main bases. Roads could also be used as a bonus when it comes to military.

    ooooh the stratagy ;)

    maybe you could make it so walking on roads could also increase the speed of military units walking on them?

    yeah we hope to do this
