Unfortunatly as far as most likely goes I believe Diablo 3 will be next year.

For me I'm waiting for Dues Ex Human Revolution and Red Faction Armageddon.

The game is extremely sweet.  Steam has a combo pack for the lot of Age of Wonders games that I'll be picking up soon when I'm done with the game I'm on now.  Its kind of similar to a Heroes of Might and Magic in a way but so much better in many ways.  Check the campaign out and you'll see

If this is in reference to the item shop, all I have to say is I almost quit.

I really prefer movement done province to province, this is so disappointing.

Perhaps, but when I joined the game and someone said look for a lord who needs a knight I went to that page and messaged the lord with the least knight and got an estate.

Damn, I gotta change my hiring tactics if all my men in my militia are a few days away from retirement.  Though this discussion is rather funny and I enjoy all the free bumps I personally thought this was a good suggestion.

Allowing lords to be able to pickup their militia units from their region like the general does except without the ability to give the unit to anyone else.

Thoughts?

Not to mention the fact that you can go to the information page and check the realm hierarchy page to see the knight situation everywhere in the realm.

Not to mention having such sub sets can in itself bring about schisms.  I also like the idea and also agree it needs its own thread as it is a bit off topic.

+1 for secret religions making sense and being an interesting addition to the game.

Tony: Yes, Tom said he didn't want mobile militia, the ability to move militia.  This is not moving militia, this is just extending an ability that is already in the game for generals.

As for it being exploited, I don't know.  I also prefer option two which would only allow a region lord to pick up militia from his region, so he couldn't be passing them around.  If it was kept like the general's ability the region lord could only pickup a unit every few days I believe it is?  As De-Legro pointed out militia slowly lose troops over time which would also hinder any sort of exploit someone might try to find.

My only question is when you are on the province map is army movement province by province like in Medieval Total War 1 or is it with movement points like in the other game?

Feature Requests / Assigning Militia

The thread about moving militia got me thinking about how expanding on the generals ability would be helpful but not approach a mobile militia type thing.  Two ways of doing it:

1-Fairly open ended:  Allowing lords of a region to have the same ability as the general where if when in their own region they could assign a militia unit to someone?

2-More closed:  Allowing the local lord to take control of a militia unit from his region, but only take control of it not actually assign it to anyone else?

I prefer the second option myself perhaps because it isn't too powerful and it makes reasonable sense when I think it out.  I have no unit and I'm in my region so I go to the captain of the guard and say grab some of your men and come with me.

In my mind I say unfortunatly.  Unfortunatly it will yet again be a stand alone game which means a stand alone price for a game that is really similar to its previous title, so similar it should be an expansion.  But at the same time it is a small company that I want to succeed so it doesn't bother me too much to shell them out a few extra bucks.  Much like battlemaster

Warband is good, but if you haven't bought it I would wait for the next expansion "with fire and sword" as it will have more quest types, more intrigue options, more multiplayer options, and most importantly for me is more town development options.

First, the above post is epic!

Second, for me I believe it was Halo 2 playing multiplayer where you bomb the defenders base.  20 seconds on the clock, we need to bomb the defending base to win the match, the bomb is set, my buddy dies placing it and their currently defusing it, I rush in killing two baddies, I stand over their bodies watching the bomb tick down, the other three members of their team rush in one after the other and all of them go down.  KILLTACULAR EXTERMINATION!!!
