  1. sorry, I was confused, I wrote warhammer but I meant warcraft, the RTS. Italy. I noticed it's popular in spain and spanish speaking countries. the art is cool, I specially love the walking animations of the units, they are varied and colorful. I'm not sure how intersting the maps are, but one thing they can be is huge, way larger than 0ad maps, with no lag attached.
  2. I just love Imperivm. Btw I only recently realized how that games shares an important gameplay feature with another prototypical RTS: warhammer. in warhammer there are NPC units called "creeps", that must be killed by your heroes in order for them to gain experience, because hero experience has great value in that game, and could be compared to certain resources in AoE or 0ad. All this also holds for Imperivm, where NPC enemies hold common settlements which have various uses, and you can fight them as soon as you have an hero with an army that's good enough, first of all in order to level the hero, and then maybe employ the settlement if you need it in your strategy.

    Cavalry

    cavalry is very powerful but requires skill and at entry level it's just more effective to go all in infantry. However, you can maybe watch on youtube how cavalry rushes are made and try it out yourself, it's a kick.
  4. tell this to @chrstgtr if you want to piss him out.
  5. also, more efficiently, it would be possible to have cavalry take back damage for each hit they land on the palisade. do palisades now have at least a cavalry damage resistance factor?
  6. I support many things that have been said here: - having a customizable "favorites" selection would help immensely with clutter - more categories would also help, and it would help if they weren't mutually exclusive. Examples of this kind of categories would be "naval", "co-op/scripted", "Gaia enemies", "geo-realistic", etc. - I also agree that a general review of all maps would be good, because some maps are just very bad and nobody likes them, and also because some maps are good (even very good) but could be better if some flaws were addressed. Uknown, for instance, can have issues with wood distribution that mainland and continent don't have. I think Marmara is less balanced than Red Sea, south team has a noticeable strategic advantage. Red Sea is less predictable, and flexible team strategy is necessary to turn the game around. Lower Nubia is another ridiculously unbalanced map.
  7. so sniping is still a thing with the community mod? was it nerfed though, right?
  8. - One can watch at the consumed total resources (in the game stats), which has been mentioned before to be a better eco performance proxy. - Player ratings should only take account of game wins and losses IMO.
  9. This really had me for a while. Then at some point I was overwhelmed and I felt like I don't know what to expect from this game.
  10. I'm kinda opposed to this. it's good to have this structure for art I guess, but I think that for gameplay it's bad. Why should two greek city states like Athens and Sparta play alike? One is a thalassocratic democracy with a stratified social system, the other one is a militaristic oligarchy with a frozen society and political system. They would have a similar military in many regards, but the eco should be different, and new players should not feel like they are the same at all. agree with campaign-specific civs, I think they are a cool idea.
  11. The question is: if this is a bug, what's the intended behaviour then?
  12. isn't this like the third time you share this video already? great one btw, but yet...
  13. I had to cross-check this. actually, the latin inscription is not very ironic and basically says that the giver couldn't afford bringing a better gift. still, very nice discovery. I felt it.
