I tried to play a game via the web player and it says that the current version is 1.85 and that it is not compatible with version 1.87.  It says I can play on the web, but well that is where I am trying to play from.

Any idea?

Hi Ross:

I see you have been experiencing some issues with the ASync play. I have a game that I completed and won but the games list shows me as Defeated. Game is 38788 This game also for some reason shows three player but there where only two. During most of the match Kaivtroll was showing up as null in the games list but was fine inside the game.

Also I have noticed today that I am getting emails saying it is my turn to play but when I login there is no games to be played. I have a game with Rugman where on my last three turns I have not seen the replay from Rugman's turns at all, I had to look at the logs to see what happened. That game is 38789.

Anyone have a faster game? This is a PSA for all the newbies, of just how NOT to play a game, I only got to take one turn. Thanks Rugman!

Is something going on with the server today? I have had issues with getting to the forums all afternoon and now I can't login to the game server. It says there is no user VanHlebar and to check the spelling and try again.

So here is the initial match I was talking about where Blizzard actually saved me this time!  A couple of times things looked really bad for me as I couldn't get a roll to save anything and the numbers where not in my favor.

Hi Ross,

Have you ever thought about creating a new Mage type like a Necromancer? I haven't thought this one completely out for game balance but something like giving them the ability to resurrect dead guards and creatures? It would be awesome to be able to resurrect an opponents dead guards and use them against them. :-)

Clearly the raised creatures wouldn't be able to have all the HP of a live one or even the abilities. I was thinking something like the Necromancer being similar to Summoner and having mass amounts of units to fight with but they all would probably be low HP creatures and the ability would have to cost a lot to use.

Then maybe you could give a different ability to the Paladin to permanently lay these undead creatures down so they couldn't be raised again.

Anyways just a thought i had last night while playing a game.

So I thought I had him right where I wanted him, low on HP and only a Fire Elemental and his Summoner, then out comes Blizzard and the games ends that quick!!

Ok so I don't know who you guys are but your killing me!  I keep starting new "Random" games and keep running into you guys.

Fern your seriously killing me as I just can't seem to get past you..have been close once or twice but still no luck!

Thanks for the great matches guys/gals and hopefully here soon I will turn the tide against you both. lol

In one of the games I am playing (UncleDozer??) I thought it was over. While I still had all three of my units (Wizard, Rogue and Bard) my Rogue and Bard are each down to 1 or 2 HP left while my Wizard is full strength. UncleDozer had his Rogue and Bard bearing down on my poor helpless units along with I think 3 other skellies?? It was looking really bad for poor me, then I got the luckiest card I could get. I drew Blizzard (or Ice shards or whatever) and I was just able to move my Wizard into the perfect spot that allowed me to hit both his Rogue, Bard and all of his Skellies. I got some serious lucky rolls and when it was all said and done all he had left was just his Summoner!!

Game is still far from over since I can't seem to get a heal card now for anything but man was a disaster averted for me.

It would be neat if at some point we could post a link to our games and be able to have others click on the link and be able to review our game. Just would add to the Battle Blogs I think.

Hi Ross:

I just saw an article today that said that Flash is going to be dead and not even able to be installed on new device from the Play store after Aug 15th. How will this impact Hero Mages if at all?

I know you use Adobe but wasn't sure if their discontinued support will have any impact.

I have finally gotten to the point where I feel like I am ready to play others. Been playing a lot of single player games against the AI up until now. I am loving the game, love it love it love it!! 

I have been hoping on the lobby the last couple of days and maybe my timing just is horrible, but I rarely see anyone in there. Got to play one game yesterday afternoon which was fun! Looking forward to getting my first win under my belt, so who's it going to be?

Really looking forward to and hoping the ascync option will allow us to be able to play more games since both players won't have to be online at the same exact time to play.

First please be gentle, I have not play any real games yet so I am not sure if this suggestion is even possible. I just found this game this week on my tablet and I played through the tutorial yesterday and I have already fallen in love with the game!

I noticed that it appears that most games are played "live" versus other players through the lobby. Is it possible to have a different method of playing the game that wouldn't require all players to be available at the same time? I see that the game is turn based, so couldn't you implement some kind of push notifications or email notification when it is my turn to play?

Sure games would take a lot longer to play, but it would eliminate the need to be online at the same time. I kind of relate it to the current system that is in place as being like playing blitz chess, you have a very short time frame to make moves and it requires you both to be online to play, but the other method would be more like a traditional chess game. You could still even include time limits on the turns to keep the games moving sort of.

Anyway just a thought, I am looking forward to playing some games this weekend and definately will be active next weekend on my flight to Vegas.

I am still doing a lot of reading here on the forums and various pages to get as much help as I can before I jump into playing!

Just found your game and so far I love it. Any chance you would consider adding Tapatalk support to your forums to make it easier to use on phones and tablets?
