I'm curious. I know of one guy in BM who I suspect is a Nazi.  So any lefties here??

BTW, I'm a communist-anarchist from Delhi, India. Born Roman Catholic but practising athiest (I like kids but not in that way).

Helpline / Noble character got duplicated when I emigrated

« on: December 14, 2015, 07:31:17 PM »

Wilsa emigrated.
Wilsa stayed behind in atmara.
Wilsa went to Dwilight also.
So iv two Wilsas. I'm tempted to unpause the one in atmara and transfer all his money to the family.
But no. I'm a nobleman y'know. I shall be all noble. Plus wouldbreak immersion for me.
So should I delete the extra char or will the admins do it in a safer way?
I didn't want to post on the bug tracker cause this is a minor issue and the mentor board was not a proper forum imo for this kind of thing. Hence this post over here. Hope someone notices.
Thanks in advance.

Development / Shouldn't those immersion breaking "undead" and "monsters" be replaced

« on: December 10, 2015, 04:43:16 PM »

Imagine a future for BM where you are fighting bandits, raiders and rebels during peacetime (and even more during war time. Especially long wars as discontent rises and the enemy works to encourage domestic discord) rather than those silly fantasy creatures who apart from being irritating, also remind you that you're playing a fantasy game and not a medieval army commander simulator.

I think replacing the creatures would provide the following benefits at least :-
1) As stated more immersion. You feel like a feudal lord who can't afford to fight long wars as domestic trouble makers grow stronger and stronger if they aren't put down.
2) more opportunity for fun as you can sponsor raider bands, and give support to existing bandits in your enemy's realm so that they grow in strength, men and equipment.
3) adventurers can now fight these raiders and bandits and thus earn gold and loot in a much more believable, sensible and immersive manner.
At least one island can be set aside for those who do not have a soft corner for fantasy but do want domestic ai targets to fight from time to time.

Development / Dig in - another shamefur display!

« on: November 12, 2015, 07:53:43 PM »

Sorry for:-
1.) Being a constant whiner.
2.) The repeated shogun 2 total war reference.
It's just that I lost six hours on TWO OF MY CHARACTERS!! cause I clicked on the dig in option by mistake. Can't we please please not have an option of confirming that action?
My motor coordination skills are not at fault here. I'm accessing this game through my mobile (I'm a poor third world fellow) and sometimes I miss my aim with my finger. Now I can't travel this turn due to shortage of hours and I'll probably reach where the army is after THE BLOODY WAR IS OVER!
are such irritations really mandatory??
Surely a page saying "are you sure you want your men to cower in foxholes for the remainder of the war?" Message isn't all that unreasonable a demand.
Also, pertinent to mention here is that sometimes your comrades !@#$ in those very fox holes and you have to live near that. (I think. So says Orwell (homage to Catalonia) and band of brothers (forget the episode).
