Just wanted to let all posters in this subforum know I am reading and taking notes. Coming weeks I ll be shifting from repairs to additions and there are plenty of good suggestions here.

Best wishes, vic

You can ask Laiders and WeaverOfThreads for quotes to flesh out the fluff of the LIS Cult, they have a striking talent for it.

Since this subforum is also for feedback, let me just say something I just experienced something I found truly awesome and I wish there was more of (there is probably, but it could be more frequent imo) :)

I just had a Decision: "Our Spies in Tiefavia Found Info"

Their leader had been up to no good and I had the choice which Faction to divulge it to.

This made me look through all reports (Economy, Domain, Trade etc.) and there is so much! Found who the Leader himself was part of (I hope.. it is the leading Faction in any case) and made sure not to choose that one but one that a military leader was part of, hoping for some extra effect.

But this made me really wish there were more things we could piece together from such reports. Maybe the relations between his cabinet members for example, making it even better if we choose low relation targets (and maybe that's possible and 6 spies isn't enough).

But there are Trade details, Assets details etc. I would really like it if searching through them would be rewarded at times.

(Also the Major AI both buy and sell the same resource (all Public trade btw! private of course can well be different), is this a bug or mismanagement or neither?)

Can you please, please, please add some type of in-game tutorial so that I can enjoy this game? I am aware of the DasTactics videos but some are really long and some are rather repetitive without doing much for me on getting into the meat of what looks like a fun game. I bought Shadow Empire based upon the amazing reviews but each time I start it, I feel like I am just wandering out clicking on random things. I do not even understand why I am clicking on big cards shown to me. It is so very frustrating, like maybe buying a puzzle without a cover. Guessing my way through what I am supposed to do shouldn't really be part of a game. At least the basics should be explained.

There's a manual in PDF format. You don't need to read it from the start to finish, but being on PDF, it's easy to search for any topic.

Keep going against the AI, last night I learned how to build assets and develop artillery and other new units, and now I'm beginning to get it.

Maybe I'm from another generation (older), but I love discovering a game step by step like this one.
