A big congrats goes out to xmorg who has won the Fallen Enchantress “Design a Trait” contest!  His trait, Outlaw Connections, took the top spot!

“The Hero has spent some time with the lawless and knows a little about how to communicate with bandits. The Hero may recruit bandits he encounters in the wilds, at a small cost of gold and prestige.

Bandits can be disbanded and add to the population. The hero cannot propose to marry them.

Bandits may also equip bows and leather armor if the technology is available.”

Congrats again, and we can’t wait to see that trait in the game!

YAY!

Look, Island....95% of us are disappointed with the top 5 traits you chosed so it's embarrasing to see you try to hype it up like it's a big deal or something....(Congrats again, and we can't wait to see that trait in the game!)

Outlaw Connections is IMO the best trait of the top 5 but it's like an average guy that have fought a little would win the UFC (Ultimate Fighting Championship) because the others tripped and knocked themselves unconscious. The average guy won, but the audience would BOOO until their lungs hurt and people would make fun of him instead of celebrating him.

Congratulations, I really liked your idea. I preferred the one with the giant randomly spawning army eating frog, but I voted for yours

Congrats, xmorg!

Congrats! Looking forward to seeing the trait in FE

Congratulations xmorg. You had my vote.

Oh indeed, I can't wait to see this awesome trait in the game! /sarcasm

 

I mean, it's not a bad trait by any means. But if the coolest trait you can come up with is my dude walking into a forest and paying some gold to hire a bunch of bandits... then well... I saw many traits that were much more interesting.

 

Oh, and finish FE already, now that is something I really have a hard time waiting for!

Submitted the exact same trait, did you?

What?? No???

Well then I guess ANYONE can't come up with it... But I sure you would have if you thought it would win.  

Congrats xmorg.  Wasn't the one I picked, but I like it.  Besides, the more diversity in gameplay options the better. 

Can we maybe get a companion trait that lets you feed your citizens to wandering monsters to win their loyalty?

I expected this kind of response from someone, not everyone has the time to actually sit down and put down stuff that they can give to developers now for a contest. We all have lives to live and are regularly distracted in RL. It's just that... trait is boring and as I said anyone could have thought it up, I was expecting something more creative and not so... bland. Anyone of us can come up with an idea to hire bandits, it's no better then hiring hero's that you find from the wastes.

Now... if those bandits that are hired have hidden status and you can attack any faction with them without repercussions diplomatically I'd find that be be pretty creative, hidden nationality status is a powerful tool because the target can't point his finger at just any body because he doesn't know who the source of the attack came from.
