It would be quite amusing if you could add animals to beastmasters in the same way that you can add great commanders to units. They could either add +1 strength, or perhaps give a promotion (see suggestions below). Of course, it might be necessary to limit it to one animal type per unit to...

Sorry for asking a silly question, but I'm planning to reformat my PC and I don't want to lose all of my trophy information. Does anyone know which file this data is kept in and where it is stored? I'm running Vista if that makes a difference. Thank you.

I really like that the level 2 spirit spell, Hope, automatically grants units in the city the level 1 spirit spell, Courage. It's almost the exact same effect as your mage manually casting courage every time you get a new unit, but with a lot less upkeep. It would be nice to see this effect...

Last game I was playing I managed to dominate both the Baron and the Malakim hero (the super arquebus guy). Both of those seemed rather unfair; especially the racial hero, as not everyone can build him (I am aware that the Baron does not have the hero promotion, but he's still a unique person)...

I've had the AI demand a lot of things to end a war, but I've never seen them ask me to change my religion. They will occasionally ask before going to war, but it should at times be one of their demands (or their only demand). Especially for spiritual leaders, and even more so for Hyborem/Basium.

Perhaps I'm unusual, but I never build catapults or canons. Early in the game you can usually beat the AI to the stooges, or just build a few extra units and then ignore the low defense bonuses. Later on you can use mages, high withdrawal units, or highly promoted city attacking melee units...

Having played a lot of games of FFH2, I'm come to rather dislike the city attack promotion. First off, it's very, very powerful. Three promotions and even middling units can destroy a well defended city (especially if the AI is trying to defend). It's so powerful that I've mostly stopped...

Every game that I play I either lose and get TweedleDee or win and get Cthulhu. I don't think I've ever had one where I won and didn't get the highest rank, or lost with enough points to not get the lowest. Perhaps the scores should be adjusted so that you can only get the Cthulhu with a...

The Kuriotates are all about diversity, what with centaurs instead of horsemen and the like. I think that Lizardmen would make good recon units for them; it's not like they're all crazy barbarians. Plus, it seems to me that the Cult of Dragon would appeal strongly to lizard people. All of the...

I received a very amusing event where a hill giant wanted to eat my pigs. When I gave him the pigs he joined me (which is cool). Seeing as how the other three stooges are names Larry, Curly, and Moe I humbly recommend that this one be called Shemp (the fourth stooge).

Several time in the bug thread I've seen someone post a save with the message "my game keeps crashing, can someone help?" Then, a few posts later someone else will say "unit x had the wrong <something>; I've deleted it, and now you should be fine." I can't image that the helper is opening the...

Just a quick thought I had on enchantment mana based summons. The stats are just off of the top of my head; they could be anything really. Enchantment II - Summon Enchanted Sword Size 4, comes with the "Enchanted Blade" promotion. Enchantment II - Summon Enchanted Armor Size 7, comes...

I've noticed that for quite some time now the AI has not built any rituals. I know that they used to be able to, because I remember them "casting" Purge of the Unfaithful all willy nilly, whether they needed it or not. So I can understand not allowing them to build that one. But some of the...

I apologize if this has been brought up before, but my forum search didn't turn up anything: I'm afraid that I have a problem with the Altar of the Luonnotar victory condition. When the AI is near to completion, the game raises a message "So and so is about to finish the altar." Now, if I'm...

I've tried in the past to get a religious victory, to no avail. I spread my beliefs to every city on every continent, purged all of the heathens from my territory, and still never really got above 60-something percent. I'd even tried burning down holy cities, in the hope that it would take the...

I'm not entirely certain what's planned for the Svartalfar, but it would be interesting to see them as jungle elves. Essentially they could have all of the same bonuses as the Ljosalfar (extra movement, ability to build farms, etc...), except for jungles instead of forests. Of course, they...
