update: Scroll of heat shield-Says it targets caster but i can actually target anyone with it. And you never answered why you have one faith start out with 2 level 2 wizard tower summons while other faith starts out with a level 1 thief unit and 1 level 1 wizard summon. Air starts out with 2 wisps and earth starts out with axe throwers and shamblers. There is a certain synergy i'm expecting when i play different faiths in that the starting units and resources should be the same. Perhaps it would be prudent to do what you did with life and death. You shortened the casting range with death but you also did it with life. At bare minimum you should atleast have comparable setups for oppisite faiths but it would be better if you balenced all archon faiths with comparible setups and all elemental faiths do the same. I get how you want variety with this shit. how you want one faith to have a weak mage but make up for it by having better infetry then another faith who has a strong mage and weak infentry but that shit makes things complicated. And i feel i'm not getting a consistent experience as a player. Now i didn't make this fucking thing but my guess is that if 2 oppisite faiths each have 1 set of every unit and every spell every ability (no scrolls artifacts or any of that because you cant balence for randoms) but the idea is all being equal in a battle between 2 oppisite faits equal skill and everything the battle should end in a stalemate. Now quit fucking your girlfriend and get back to work. Love Solarr8

Wall of text. Very little constructive things to say. You have a history of this. I'm less and less inclined to listen.

oh and 1 more thing. The description for falchons eye should be costs half of remaining movement points Adds 1x cl sight radius not costs half of remaining movement points and 1x cl sight radius The spell adds sight radius as far as i know
By the way in case you havnt realized this after this long im a critic aka reviewer so if by constructive you mean agreeing with you or putting up redrawn pictures for you to add to the game your heads a bit off.
Let me make it double clear since you're not the best with english, i'm not here to add to your game. I'm here to tell you whats good whats bad and whats indifferent (all opinions) (Duh!)and ask questions if i have them as well as help you correct certain atmospheric elements since i know your english isnt good.
In other words, i am a reviewer judging your art (your design choices) and making suggestions along the way.
I get the whole wanting to streach the game out as far as you can especially when your shits in the kind of situation where lomse is all you play. Trust me i get it. You want the game to be like the early days of Everquest or dragon age back when plus 3 to armor actually ment something and small numbers ment segnificant impacts and i admire that. I've beaten the shit out of dragon age and i thought it was gimp at first because i wasnt used to the whole back to basics things. But the idea is this,
A good game teaches the player and suggests the expectations to the player. With a game like lomse its very hard to do this because its so old school. I don't fault you for having trouble making the game "manual free" and user friendly. I'm just telling you what they are. The best thing you can do is to make the game as close as possible to being a game people can understand. Starting off by listing the extra perks that some units have on the descriptions is a great start.
Really your only problem is that your thin skinned. You've got to roll with the punches and not take the critique of your mod as a personal insult. Besides you outta know by now that i post the insults in the boasters spot section and not this one (HAHA FUNNY JOKE) Yeah thats right im going to spell things out for you whenever i can to make it easier for you.
But yeah when i post hey is fireball intended to be the way it is because once you're caught in it you cant get out and you snap back with "It moves slow enough move out of the way" like a pompous ass yeah im going to send shit back because i don't sit around and get spoken to like that without firing back.
(not to mention the fact that i dunno [What The FUCK] are you saying that if you click in the right direction after the shit lands you might get past it or are you just fucked if it lands. Hard to tell if the fire wizard is casting that specific spell and honestly on a level 6 big house in the second area that fire wizard starts out real close to you already so i dunno how the fuck im suppose to move when the fireball has such a short distance to travel unless i want to pause the game every second to scroll around the screen looking for the casting of the fireball so ya being more specific and lenghty with how you arrive to your conclusions would actually help me see things the way you do. i know completly unselfish right?)
Prime example of me making a specific effort just for you to be as unassuming as possible with that question and you throw it in my face. and if you really didn't mean it that way (which is entirely possible because i know your english is not that good) then i'm sorry i snapped at you boaster.

It's hilarious that you believe my English is so very bad. I'm not exempt from mistakes.
If you mean English as all encompassing: grammar, diction and spelling... then you might as well critique yourself first.
Everyone's a critic, and some critics aren't worth listening to. You've developed a reputation for being a low brow critic.
Sometimes you bring legitimate things up that I can fix, other times it seems as though you're whining about something.
Take your hand at modding, starting with knowing nothing. Please do.
Until you do, I have nothing further to say.

"Sometimes you bring legitimate things up that I can fix, other times it seems as though you're whining about something."
In other words you don't want to hear anything bad about your design choices unless its something being spelled wrong or a bad spell description. Sorry you can't take the heat boaster. It's even funnier how you ask people for money on your call to the magistrate post but you're not willing to work with the people who come here who would possibly be your next donator. You rebuke everything they say right off the bat (see the death is overpowered post) (apparently i'm not the only one who has shit to say that challenges the all mighty boaster)without once trying to see things from their point of view.
People don't pay for art they don't like. And they especially don't pay for artists that don't consider design feedback from the people using the art they're trying to sell. (Yeah it's tough i know)
"Take your hand at modding, starting with knowing nothing. Please do."
designers or critics there of don't usually code boaster just like food critics don't usualy cook. Jeffrey Steingarten for example has a legal backround and not a food service backround and he is very well off for his opinions.
And im not posting this for you, since your ears are closed. I'm posting for the other people who read so they can know where i'm coming from. You have a tendency not only to not respond to challenging logical questions and arguments but to side step them as well as you see fit. but i'm not here to critique your personal choces, just the game.
And it is true that i can be harsh at times. And i'm sorry if my harshness makes it hard for me to get my point across or if it's considered hurtfull. Alot of what i say is in 1/2 jest, just my personality. Hard to convey on a forums page i see and for that i apologize.
To me, on your left hand you convey that you want to be a hero of the people who play your game and get us involved and make it a true collaborative thing and on the right hand you you say this is my mod take it or leave it.
You can't have both. and again if i mis interpret your intentions i'm sorry about that.
