People are saying they want to conquer planets/space/etc with katherine, but isnt a little inappropriate due to the historical fantasy setting? How about conquering demonic/angelic/dragon/elvish/dwarven/etc realms instead?? Last map: Conquering the homeland of dark knights from where we summoned them. Also, i'd like to suggest conquering in any order similar to warlord (i think the game was called), where you can conquer any territory adjacent to one of yours, and the difficulty of remaining territories scale in accordance to how much youve already conquered.
The Aliens thing started when there was a unity web player issue a few weeks ago that took our game and a few others offline for almost the entire day. we put up a temporary image place holder that said Catherine had gone off to fight aliens or something, and everyone had a laugh =). We actually don't have any plans to conquer other planets. We will probably reserve that idea for the sequel! haha.

@Aracon1: yes it does, if you reset after conquering the world, you permanently gain 5 extra DK multipliers, this stacks so your alter can pump out hundreds of DK each if you do it enough times.

In the kingdom overview, it would be nice to have Total Gold per second(includes buildings and countries), gold per second from buildings, and gold per second from countries. Right now, I think the Total Gold only shows buildings which is slightly annoying.
Under rating threshold (hideshow)
i wonder, why first thing we will be buying for any structure is just one building, no matter if you choose 100. Usually, after dark knights reset i upgrade farms first and there is enough money with that to multiply anything bought next by 100. But no, it's still 1 building first, and only then exactly how much you wish to buy. And my eyes hurt from looking at numbers ending with 01, not with 00.)
Because, despite it looking like a simple thing to do, it ended up being a troubling headache for me in my code and would require me to reinvent some ways I am already doing stuff which means days of work because people are bothered by numbers not ending in 00. I am sorry if this is truly troublesome to you, but I really did try it out to see how 'easy' it would be and it ended up frustrating me so I stopped messing with it. Thus, I cannot invest any time in dealing with this kind of stuff as I have over 200 conversation dialogues to write and a ton of new content to get released. ~Taiga

Does the achievements reward multiplier maintain after a reset or do I have to build that certain amount of buildings again?
Under rating threshold (hideshow)
I have to agree, once you have a few DK the army power really isn't an issue anymore. I wish there was something else you could do with the troops once the world is conquered. Maybe they could extort extra payments or build the buildings in other places. I have so many extra troops I wouldn't mind if the troops gained from counties was a maintenance fee instead, and I keep my troop production buildings 100s of levels behind the rest of my buildings.

Really lightelf? That's the opposite of what it's like for me, but then again we might be at totally different places....
Under rating threshold (hideshow)
Kind of feel like there is an imbalance with troop production compared to gold production. Can get really high troop numbers/army power in relatively short time but then have to wait ages until you have the gold to actually utilise them.
Apart from that I'm enjoying the game so far :)

....Nation conquering time should match the tide of battle instead of being a fixed decrease of of opposing army strength
Under rating threshold (hideshow)
Your total number of army troops should affect the speed of killing an opposing army...Ex When your army is 247 million strong against 50 million.

tman, check the "game news" under the "game" tab to the right of the actual game. It has all the update news and mentions a bug with offline gains. It will be hopefully be fixed in the next update.
Under rating threshold (hideshow)
nice game, looking forward to the next updates!!! One question tho... what is the point of having the Grey Isles produce troops if it is the last nation you can conquer?
Under rating threshold (hideshow)
I know you must have a lot to do still, and i love that your continuing to work on it as well as pay attention to our comments here, but i believe you mentioned that in a future update that you will be able to select your gender so that Cathrine can refer to you as he or she. And so i can't help but wonder if you could allow us to imput a name for ourselves. It would be a neat little addition if it's not to hard to do (I know nothing about programming). I think i might have her call me "Master" or something like that to confuse her.
I thought of it, and it would not be hard to do. However, her calling you 'general' is part of the character I have developed for her that is the reason I have decided to stick to 'general'. At least for now. I might actually allow you to give yourself a name for the new world conquest much later though. We shall see! ~Taiga
If you hover over the buttons they will turn a dark red. If you are using our 'sword' mouse cursor the effect was to simulate a little sadism over the conquest. Hover the sword over the buttons, it turns dark red. ~Taiga
It's PC only and there is one thing I can express with this game it will never be converted to cross-platform because it would require us to completely reinvent our entire GUI like AdCap had to do and I'd rather not deal with the stress of the shitstorm that will come from that. I'll just focus on creating new content instead of going mobile friendly. ~Taiga

First off, fantastic game, love it, but also whenever i switch browser tabs it seems like I don't lose enough soliders when I am in war, example I had 60,000 soliders, Plyket had 40-50,000, and when I came back after a long time away on a different tab, and now Plyket had 15,000 while I still had 50,000, now I could be wrong but I would really appreciate if you could look into this, still love this game though.
The battle system is done by random calculations. If the enemy lost the minimum or close to the minimum amount of troops each time a calculation is done, it is possible for what you say to happen therefore, until the next update where I remove random calculations in favor of static damage calculations, I cannot verify this at all. However, I am feeling pretty confident that switching tabs should have no effects on the game calculations. If you are not on a fast computer I recommend switching to low quality mode before you idle and switch tabs as it will remove all need for your computer to process any graphics while away. ~Taiga

"General, we have conquered the entire known world except for three little islands! We must build our army to well over 10 times what we have now so we can utterly crush the final, pitiful resistance! Fufufu! You DO think that's a good idea, right?"

Remember to export your game from time to time! Be it some crash, erroneous cache clearance or your own clumsiness, you won't lose too much if you will have manual copy up your sleeve. ;)
Because of my own awkwardness I'd mistakenly made Hard Reset instead of DK Reset (Yes and No buttons it both reset confirmations looks so similar ;)), but fortunately lost only 10h-12h of progress, which is trivial and very easy to make up for.^^ Starting today, I will have separated folder on desktop, just for my Touria's World saves, made every few or dozen of hours - just in case my clumsiness go wild again ;P

At the moment I don't get any offline progress, not just less due to upgrades not being counted. Is it just me or is that a common problem at the moment?

@azzah69: Sry bro I haven't cheated, just played since it came out and figured out that farming a ton of dark knights to get the achievements was how you progressed the fastest (think i reset the world only 7 times in a month or so). Now it's farming world conquests for altar multiplier, which atm takes ~15 minutes if I'm not playing BoI:Rebirth or smth. You'll get there eventually so keep it up!

When I am conquering country after country I like to imagine that the next country I invade attempted to provide relief/aid to the previously dominated country. :D

Under Kingdom Overview, perhaps under Misc. Total Gold /s should be renamed Total Gold from Economy /s and add "Total Gold /s" but make it a combination of "Total Gold from Country /s" and "Total Gold from Economy /s". Currently, Total Gold /s is just the gold from buildings only and it was slightly confusing to me at first when I noticed conquering new countries didn't increase my total gold /s.
Well if I combined it with total gold from countries then you wouldn't know what the total gold from economy was. Regardless, it's a simple text change and will be made for the next update! ~Taiga

sweet! I love the new update(s), I've been gone off here a long time for the dull, since the updates arrived, I can't wait 4 next ones! :D (thanks guys for your efforts to repair the game [FOR HONOR!!!!!! ~queen])

Not that the gains matter much, but it would be nice for you to start getting rewards from a country immediately after conquering instead of needing to hit accept. Especially in offline mode it is annoying to log in and see the accept window there. It isn't like there is a choice to make there that would affect output.
We did that as a noob prevention method. So players don't log on, see no battle progressing, and make comments about the country not being captured while offline, when in fact it was captured and they just forgot which one they had attacked last. =). We may be adding in a different summary method when we expand conquest content, until then it will probably stay as it. Thanks for the idea though =)!

the gold gain seems low once you get past the early game. only real jumps are resetting once every day or two for a boost in DK's. The returns on conquering seem very low too. 12B to get a slow paced 1M trickle. it would take days for it to see a positive result.
Possibly add a 'risk' (board game) set bonus for conquering continents or island chains?
You can see country gains per second on the Misc panel in the Kingdom Overview screen. Notice that its not as low as you think once you get enough countries captured. =)

small problems with typing gluuestein or gluustein it says

on the seige bar: Gluustein
on the button to start seige: gluuestein

@Comrade_SOD
You only get them once you reset. Check Kingdom overview and the top right red icon that is not an x to find how many you have.
Under rating threshold (hideshow)
Each time I log on it says I have gained 'X' number of dark nights through my alter but at the top it shows 0. I have watched the bar fill while I've been online and still shows 0. I should be getting at least 210 per bar.

Hello, Taiga. I just wanted to say it, cause everyone calles you "Yotsuba", but you like nickname "Taiga". Yes, it's nice... Taigaaaaa *-* Nya ^^ In russian there is a word "Taiga" also (тайга).
Well, and I'll ask also - how is the stuff going?.. Seeing what you've written below.. that "don't know when to expect stuff".. Oh no, are we really need wait a.. month? I just thought it would be.. maybe in next week. Don't know why, maybe because you've written recently that you're a "fast programmer", that's why o.o
Under rating threshold (hideshow)
so... how do you actually conquer stuff?
I have the required gold and manpower to conquer stuff, but its not doing anything...
If we had an actual team working on this game I'd say yes but I'm a programmer with only 6 months experience doing everything by myself so I can't really give you guys a time you can expect stuff. But I think I got my Catherine interaction setup to where I only need to create the writing now the code's all done. I'll do my best! Making release date promises then breaking them due to unforeseen consequences will just upset people so I'd rather just say I'm working my little butt off as hard as I can! ~Taiga
