So does Awe and Fear stack?

Awe takes effect whenever an attacking unit fails a morale check, and Fear reduces the morale of nearby units. So, in a sense, they do work together(fear will make nearby units more susceptible to having their attacks blocked by Awe), but do they stack? Kind of a weird way of putting it. It's more just that they synergize really well.

  Unfortunately starvation itself is kinda an odd mechanic (IIRC it prefers giving units afflictions to actually killing them?)

It's a major penalty to morale, and has a high chance of giving afflictions, yes... I think it's even specifically weighted towards causing Disease, which itself is a fatal condition unless treated in some way.

So, no, starvation won't smite down your foes in any quick fashion by itself... But it will make the enemy's units all but worthless in battle, as well as the logistics nightmare of wounds and disease running rampant through your troops.

So, are there any plans to run a game in the near future? I haven't had my ass kicked by competent (i.e. human) players in over a year, and I'm starting to miss it.

Sorry I might have been thinking of another game.

In it there are two effects that are basically exactly the same... But they give one to the "Good guys" and another to "The Bad Guys" and they basically do the same thing... enemies need to pass a will/morale test to even attack.

Well mind you... it wasn't for "Good guy, bad guy" flavoring. So much that it wanted to separate the difference between someone blinding you with divine reverence and someone making you poop your pants in terror.

One is currently running. 30 turns in at standard research, when it's over likely another will start I think.

My preference is to use games here to find NationGen guinea pigs; I'd be willing to admin one if you lot would be willing to suffer through NG...

[RexMundi]

My brother loves nation gen, and I think I could try a game with real people instead of just AI. Pm me if you do wanna get something going

[a1s]

I'm in for nation gen- should be fun.

[Kagus]

I'd hop onboard, but I've already kinda dedicated myself to more projects right now than I'm really capable of handling. Maybe some later time.

...I'll go ahead and get a post up for interest/planning/scheming...

Passing along that I am attempting to revive community clash in a somewhat more organized fashion.  That is to say, I actually secured a working server option and obtained semi-delivery of a map before making a post.  Post is on dom4mods if the team here is interested in signing up again.

Trying to pull the team for this back together, but only one other person replied, so as such if you feel up to the task of representing the glorious community of the Twelfth Bay, send me a PM.

Are the the developer for NationGen? Just wondering.

[E. Albright]

I'm the junior partner. About 2.5 years ago I sorta ended up being the primary content dev for the project, mostly by volunteering to take up the mantle when the creator went on hiatus for a while, and doing a fair job of it. Most of the coding heavy lifting and engine functionality is still done by the original author (Elmokki over at Dom4Mods), but some random parts of the coding and a reasonably large percentage of the content - to include the majority of new content - are my fault. Other people in the community have contributed content as well; the original forms of Atlantians, Sidhe, Serpentmen, and I think Abysians (and maybe one or two more?) were made by someone other than one of us two, even if they may have subsequently been modified or expanded by one of us.

So (all) non-magic ranged weapons don't work underwater, right? Including crossbows, javlins, slings & so on?

[E. Albright]

Spectral ones do [which I suppose would fall under the rubric of magic], but I can't think of any others used by human or humanlike troops that do, no.
