Will the site (forums, mainly) be back up soon? Looks like I missed the latest version. I've tried constant refreshing, but that doesn't seem to be getting me anywhere.

If another country ends up attacking someone you pledged to (usually not through the AI's fault- often they attack another city state, and the city state you're protecting decides it's a brilliant time to do a RAWR! WARRRR! deal), they send you a message. It seems to range from 'OMG I AM SO...

Yes, the game needs Mongolia and Spain. (And the Vikings, the Dutch, the Portuguese. It really doesn't need Canada, but if you really want to argue it, you can go ahead- oh, wait, that actually didn't pop up in this thread. Huh.) Yes, the inability of the game and the world at large to...

They actually don't really have Void in the last version I played, but there was a long talk about it on the Orbis forums that they should. I don't know if dimensional is the best fit for a Void element (I think Mind still fits the best), but I think it could work with a bit of playing: there...

What is happening that seems to be causing problems: Player goes to her city, checks it, and says "Okay, cool." Player tells the game to not let her city become unhappy, by clicking that nice button that glows gold. City grows! City sees that, say, it has a max of five health but has...

The Dao aren't the Eastern-based civilization, they're the Japanese-based civilization. The "eastern classical" is not 'Eastern', it's Chinese. While going with a strictly Erebus theme would work (thus Terrestrial would be my second choice), it seems weird to have a theme so tied to Japanese...

I've had most of my friends play a game or two on Noble when they first get RiFE (or really any mod, for that matter). You'll likely find it pretty easy, but it'll allow you to figure out what For now, you may want to consider the option to lock/block certain civ's from spawning, and turning...

Adding on to what everyone is saying... be careful with the houses. For Cannith, for instance, I usually am one of the first to reach Ether and +, so I usually build the world wonder that gives you a free mage guild in every city. Unfortunately, Cannith doesn't seem to pick that up, so you...

You've gotten a ton of reports already, but just adding in the report that yeah, the D'Tesh really need a few pokes with the nerfbat. Or maybe even a full windup. I had never played them before. I loaded them up for the first time with this patch. I started to play them in my standard...

Is there any sort of log generated when you get a crash to desktop, or any information to get at that point that would be helpful? I've been actually having a few stability problems- not major, but more then it seems most people in the thread are. They don't seem to bug my save games, and I'm...

The issue with Loki is the same for the whole D'Tesh recon line, as mentioned above. You can pop everything under the sun, and get away with it- only the possibility of your unit disappearing really limits you, and hey, if that happens, you just make a new one. Basically, you get to be the one...

On D'Tesh Affinity, only when hovering over the promotion on a unit (Scout, in this case) rather then in the pedia, there's two extra TXT_KEY_etc etc etc errors, one for DEATH and one for SHADOW. The benefits for Death and Shadow are listed already, however, at the top of the promotion list.

A few scattered thoughts: As mentioned in the Balance post, the Lectum barbarians are really annoying. Got the standard popups to go find the Lectum, did so and got my Aggressive trait (as the Illians), got it in city range, connected it over, and still barbarians, pop pop pop. I am...

Having trouble with healers, health, and food as well. Although I understand the intention, it's not really fun. It's hard to avoid having problems (three of the ten quick start games I just ran off started without a river, with two of them needing seven turns to get to a spot with a river...

Cheers, Valk and team! ...four minutes to go for me. <3 :)
