I want multi-screen support    ... My new set of brand new 24" widescreen LCDs should be here on Monday to replace my current 8+ year-old dual 20" setup If Stardock doesn't support multi-screen displays I hope they at least make the game more intelligent than most. Many (most?) games don't let you side-scroll in the direction of your 2nd monitor - the mouse just goes onto the second screen. And if you accidentally click on the second screen the game minimizes. I'd like SD to at least have a "lock mouse to screen" function that wouldn't necessitate me having to explicitly disable my second monitor whenever I want to play. ... But I'd prefer full multi-screen support ala Supreme Commander

That was totally your fault. I don't think I'll play hotseat but I'm very much in favor of it being in the game. Split screen, however, is retarded, considering only one person can play at a time on one computer And even split between monitors is silly - there is only one keyboard and one mouse, after all...

1st option is wrong. Civ 4 has C++, Python and XML modding capabilities. You seem to mention only XML in Civ 4.

I still think it's wrong to mention Civ 4 in that context. Most good Civ 4 mods are C++ mods. Something like Fall From Heaven is impossible without C++. So, some people may see Civ 4 and think "Civ 4 had nice mods, i want something like that in Elemental too" and vote for that option, but that option will not allow to make the mods of the same quality in Elemental.

Aren't "Going Sauron" mixed up? I always use the example of "Going Sauron" as the "take-down-entire-armies"-channeler as described by Stardock somewhere far back in time.

57 respondents! Time for an update. Please note on question 1 a LOW average rating reflects that

the option is popular.

Download3. Submitted by landisaurus - (Due to length of answers, they will be explained in the body of the question) If there are multiple maps in a single game, how should they be accessable. A. only through portals/stairs in very specific locations, allowing for the maps to be different sizes B. Through phasing, planer walking, and everything else (possible phasing units might exist on both planes at the same time); forcing the maps all to be the same size so things sync up C. Same as option B, except force units into one plane or the other, and have a scaling feature so the maps can be different sizes (phasing units may have a range of locations into which they come through when switching planes/going-underground) D. All of the Above, I love the idea of multiple maps but am unsure how to do it. I'd leave it to the devs because I don't know the complications of programing it. E. I vote against multiple maps

Download6. I believe my preferred playstyle would be:
	answered question		56
	skipped question		1
		Response Percent	Response Count
"Going Gandalf" - making your channeler godly powerful with little infrastructure or armies.		1.8%	1
"Strong channeler" - Focus mostly on a strong channeler but cannon fodder and heroes have a place.		8.9%	5
"Balanced" - looking for the optimal balance of Sword and Sorcery		10.7%	6
"Bring on the Heroes" - Channeler still an important role, but heroes and armies are prominant.		19.6%	11
"Going Sauron" - Channeler works primarily thru others - strong heroes and massive armies.		23.2%	13
I will probably not have a dominant style, playing fairly equal amounts of various playstyles.		30.4%	17
I will mostly play a style that you did not list.		5.4%	3

Download7. Another playstyle question - what attributes would you use to describe your ideal channeler - the one that is going to truly be your in-game avatar? (Choose all that apply)
