WOOHOO!

Unfortunately I think I should probably stick with 1.00 until I finish the tutorial I've been recording.

Not available via Stardock central?
(Yes, I have enabled beta downloads in the settings)

Very cool.  Nakor, you need to get a stardock sig.

No, it's not available via Stardock Central. The 1.01 update will be.

I have a Stardock badge by my user and member #2. A sig would be overkill.

[Samuel L Jackson] I've got the Member No. that says Bad Muthaf***a! 

And woot, thanks for the update! Installing while I'm typing!

Nice.

So far I like the unrest weakness that Tarth gets because it fits their personality. But the symbol of a questionmark doesn't quite fit rebels. I don't think the Tarth are the riddlers minions (although that would be cool). I don't know what to put there, but I don't think a questionmark is the way to go.

A trio of upraised fists could represent unrest... (so it won't be confused with a hero ability like crushing blow).

Or a torch and a pitchfork ala angry villagers from Frankenstein.

Liked new trait points in beta, had a few run ins with duplicate stacks, but it seemed to resolve on it's own.  Are the dragonfly bracers meant to be free?  Those are nice, esp for a beastmaster!

only thing is that neither shows in the thread starter without digging.

Trojasmic - does this build still contains the bug you discovered concerning AI not paying for heroes and buildings and rushing several buildings simultaneously?

Minor Bug: When you get "Tactics II" the tool tip says it gives you +1 to init, which is in addition to the +1 from the first one.  When you mouse over the skill on your hero it still only says +1 however instead of the cumulative +2 which could really confuse people.  The bonus DOES appear to get applied.

The AI gold is super bugged in this.  In a normal game, turn 130, the AIs have tens of thousands of gold.

Xia, could you check the file coredifficultylevels.xml and check the starting funds ratio?

I am playing challenging, no real issues and definitely nothing like what you are describing.  Might be some odd process that got stuck in a loop or they grabbed a resource that produced some sort of error.
