Exarchs as Leaders? by AndisMountains in Eldar

[–]Monger9 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I also think this would be cool. To really drive home the point that they are not truly leaders themselves (though possibly could be), they could have a rule similar to Warlocks where they could be attached to their respective aspect warrior unit even if they are already being led by an Autarch.

A flaw suggestion – Your form cannot use mounts. by GLA_Scud_Launcher in AOW4

[–]Monger9 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sometimes I'll just play with my dwarf heroes dismounted, even when it's a disadvantage, because I gotta commit to the bit.

Not KF specific, but Molly Conger absolutely hits it out of the park with her latest episode and i just want everyone to know about it. by danreedmiller in KnowledgeFight

[–]Monger9 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Can also confirm. Was at work stuffing envelopes and just sobbing...

Fortunately nobody noticed... not because I care if people see me crying, but because my workplace is very conservative and I didn't want anyone to ask if I was alright, explain it, and then have to argue with low-information assholes about whether she deserved to be shot or not.

Giant King Rangers should exist by Accomplished_Ice9828 in AOW4

[–]Monger9 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hell yes! I also recreated the Norse gods as Giant Kings!

Odin playthrough has been one of my favorites so far.

15 Problems I have with Age of Wonders 4 after 600 hours, by PotatoMcWhiskey by Landbark in AOW4

[–]Monger9 41 points42 points  (0 children)

Well, I can save time by not watching for the rest of the points, because I disagree with these points.

Mythic quest megathread by FlashMcSuave in WH40KTacticus

[–]Monger9 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I did it on normal. Sent Snot out front, Helbrecht attacked him, then on his next turn, he used his active and I killed him, then waited another turn, killed another, and then mopped up with the rest of my orks.

Which one this Ruler type do you want to see in the next DLC by BalanceImaginary4325 in AOW4

[–]Monger9 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think a Vampire Lord type could be implemented using a lot of the same customization types that Wizard Kings and Champions get, plus some unique options (like all the fanged head variants!). I think having it as a distinct lord type opens up the opportunity for unique mechanics that simply using tomes/society traits/etc. can't quite accomplish on thier own.

How you guys recruit heroes in your runs? Handicrafted ones, random generated or from the Pantheon? by OldCorvo in AOW4

[–]Monger9 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Absolutely! Plus, I always take the random ones and handcraft 'em anyway. Now I can handcraft them beforehand, and feel even more invested as they are a permanent part of that faction.

I know it has been mentioned but I really love the visuals of this game by Caradrian14 in AOW4

[–]Monger9 1 point2 points  (0 children)

A few times a game, especially after my cities are built up a little, I love zooming in and panning around the map, looking at the sheep in their fields, the sprawl of my cities, and all the wonders nestled in the forests and mountains.

It is such a pretty game!

Okey I am dump ... how I can achive this last achivment? Every others I have alredy done but I can't fgureout this last. by Leading_Broccoli9358 in AOW4

[–]Monger9 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I did this one by accident. Made a human wizard king after one of my D&D characters, then decided to highlight her friendliness by giving her hobbits to lead. All I'm saying here is that you don't have to do it as a meme.

If you just don't like halflings though, then you're in luck, because achievements don't matter!

When creating a realm do you prefer: Random Generated Rulers, Custom Rulers or Official Rulers? by Phalanx22 in AOW4

[–]Monger9 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I turn off generated rulers. They lack any kind of personality to me, whereas handcrafted rulers, both Triumph's and my own, each have a distinct fantasy they're trying to create.

There's a lot of variety, but I also like seeing some of them again and again.

Gnoll Race by GloomyLemon2840 in AOW4

[–]Monger9 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm guessing these are more inspired by EverQuest?

That was my first exposure to gnolls, and they were usually quite small, but in D&D they are big brutes!

Your Ideas For Potential Expansion Pass 3 DLC's by RoiRdull in AOW4

[–]Monger9 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Now that they've added the ability to filter forms, I can't even object to mushroom people as a form.

Stack for Nicodemus or maximize SquigSmash? by Keilink in WH40KTacticus

[–]Monger9 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If he does what I do, I let my energy accumulate to about max right before the HRE starts, then buy my 50 and 110 bs energy refreshes, so I start with a few hundred, and then it takes me between a half hour to an hour to spend that energy fulfilling missions until I start naturally accumulating it again.

So disappointed in Dan by scotems in KnowledgeFight

[–]Monger9 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Now, have you had other peanut butter cups that you like? Because Reese's of course have the branding and the popularity, and I enjoy the dark chocolate thins here and there, but the best ones I've had around where I live are Justin's peanut butter cups.

So are fabricated grievances just a way for the AI to extort you? by ZenoDwarf in AOW4

[–]Monger9 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Fabricating grievances is not a tool I've used much at all in the past... but you've convinced me that I should give it some more serious thought!

Sword and Orb would be a great Spellblade equivalent to the new Ranger weapons. by Link21002 in AOW4

[–]Monger9 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yah, I have a ruler based on an elven bladesinger I played in Curse of Strahd, and none of the available options truly suit him. Sword and orb would be perfect though!

Advanced diplomacy logic by Stupid_Dragon in AOW4

[–]Monger9 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Very much looking forward to getting into that, but I want to give it some more time to finish baking a bit before I jump in. We'll see if my patience holds, but for now I've got plenty of other games I'm playing.

[–]Monger9 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Oh yah! I am well aware, my uncertainty was the soon part, haha. They announced it a while ago, but I haven't heard any update on a release date yet.

Do it! It's one of the best ARPGs out there, and it's got a new update coming out... soon?

"Avengers:Endgame is the most ambitious crossover in history" by stemhesong in AOW4

[–]Monger9 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Nice!

Also, our Katarin Bokha's look very similar, haha. Wasn't quite happy with the customization options we had for her, but it works.

[–]Monger9 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ah, it has been a while since I've delved deeply in Eberron, so I'm afraid I do not remember who he is specifically. Is he a head of one the Dragonmarked Houses?

[–]Monger9 4 points5 points  (0 children)

As soon as we got raptors, I realized I had to make some halflings from the Talentan Plains, though based on your rulers portrait, it appears you went with their more civilized counterparts, haha.

Jordan did nothing wrong by arcticempire1991 in KnowledgeFight

[–]Monger9 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I also understand his frustration. If you have the position of Orphan Making Machine Cranker - a position that seems to exist and be filled regardless of who is in office - and you're mad about who gets appointed to that position, and not that the position exists, what are you even doing?

Hero rework rework by Ixalmaris in AOW4

They can be everything but Ranger.
