Wood is made up of a perfectly aligned array of matches - like electrons in a battery. Similarly when wood burns and expends it's energy the matches become misaligned, which gives it it's black appearance.

I like the well, and right building roof from the second image

Just had a playthrough on v0.17 - I liked it!
I actually just went straight into a mission without playing the tutorial, and managed to win that so it's very intuitive.
One thing I couldn't tell was how to determine what decided the "initiative" of units - in that sometimes I would send a unit in to attack an enemy unit, but they would occasionally move before me? So I went back and tried the tutorial but it didn't seem to mention it.
Other thoughts:
- Love the pixel art graphics
- Sound effects are cool
- No ambient music?
- Victory effect was very nice
- The tutorial AI seemed to have more units that the easy AI managed to build in my first mission
Very good fun though. I look forward to seeing how you progress

Checked out your new site as well. Looking good! :p (puts mine to shame a bit!!)

Oh dear sorry to hear that. Reading can be great to help with stress busting. Personally I try to do a little reading last thing before bed - rather than nodding off in front of netflix or something, which I can slip in to the habit of doing sometimes
I have certainly read LOTR books and wholeheartedly agree that the books surpass the films in a number of ways. Not all though - some of the battle sequences are fantastically realised in the movies. Plus I am ashamed to admit that I may have skipped a few of the lengthy song sections on my last readthrough.
La Belle Sauvage looks fantastic, wasn't aware of it so thanks for that suggestion. Will definitely be checking that out. Tigana and riddle master looks very good too. Looks like I've got plenty to be going with already!

Writing, Poems, AARs, and Stories - The Storyteller's Hall / Fantasy book recommendations please!
« on: March 14, 2018, 11:16:47 AM »
Greetings Exilians!
I'm looking for a recommendation for a fantasy book / series to move on to. I just finished the night angel trilogy by brent weeks and really liked those. Also really liked his dark materials, and the mighty song of ice and fire etc
Anyone reading anything juicy at the moment - or maybe recently completed a great book?
I'm hoping to remedy my so-seldom-its-nearly-nonexistant post schedule - so thanks in advance
