Sorry if I'm missing something blatently obvious, but I cannot find a list of traits in the game. Is such a list compiled?

[quote who="Barney_130" reply="17" id="2592696"]If you already think it's going to be out after september wouldn't it be wise to indicate it in the Impulse game page ? http://www.impulsedriven.com/elemental "Realease date : To be determined" or something like this.[/quote] I would like to second this one. I would rather set the expectation rather than watch a few dates pass.

[quote who="Frogboy" reply="98" id="2584614"]I'd love to do a MOO 4 (i.e. MOO 1/2 with better graphics and more advanced MP) but our plate is pretty full. My point is that there is no scenario where Elemental outsells Civ V no matter what. Wish for success for both. I am sure I'm not the only one who would like to see a LOT more than TWO major TBS games coming out a year. [/quote] Going over the initial read for Sword of the Stars II, it

[quote who="Magicke" reply="69" id="2552025"]Yea, the battles in Civ4 are frustrating when a iron age unit defeats a modern unit.[/quote] This never bothered me. Consider this: The guy in the tank has this really slick armor system. The tank. The Iron Age guy...doesn't. But the guy in the tank can't spend his entire day in the tank, he has to eat, sleep, wash up, spend time with the girlfriend, do his taxes, etc... Once he's outside of his tank, he's just a guy. And if th

[quote who="Wintersong" reply="14" id="2371068"]As long as there is beta I don't care if it's fun or not. I'm getting some serious anxiety problems about it right now.[/quote] You may want to consider getting your priorities adjusted if the lack of a beta for a computer game is causing you health issues and you don't have a vested interest in the company producing said game.

Why wouldn't I just make pikemen to start with?[/quote] If the game tracks experience through upgrades (in this case spears being replaced by pikes), then I would want my more experienced troops using the better weapon.
