I loved the little victory dance they'd do when you beat an area...  Especially fun with the braves doing a conga line around the fire warriors who are busy shooting fireworks into the sky.

[Cthulhu]

You know what would be epic?  If multiplayer Majesty had one or two kings, and the rest could be heroes.

Also, I've found a fun multiplayer tactic.  My brother likes to build huge cities with lots of heroes, and those heroes make lots of money.  I build a town in the middle of the map with an inn, trading post, and fairgrounds, and watch as his heroes spend literally thousands of gold there.  I saw a single knight spend 1200 gold on a fairgrounds training session.  Of course, all that gold is going to me, instead of him.

[Kagus]

Yep, that's why some people decide to invest in lots of statues, so that doesn't happen.  Either that, or just get a bunch of monks and paladins to protect them. 

Interestingly enough, the primary trait for gnomes is willpower.  I guess they're supposed to be loyal or somesuch.  It's kinda funny, they're dreadfully weak, but they have the best habits.  They spend as much time training as they can, and they also take lots of time buffing themselves in royal gardens.

So... I really want to play this game.

But I don't really know how to pirate stuff well.

It's not worth paying for really, because it's eight years old or whatnot.  I mean, I would pay five bucks for it, but I don't think it would be five bucks because I really would have to order it, etc...

Any suggestions?

[Kagus]

What about $6.70?

[Puzzlemaker]

What about $6.70?

That may work.  Thank ye!

...Does that come with the expansion?

...Do I have an E-Bay account?

...Is there anywhere I can just pay online?...

...I wonder if I can borrow an account...

[Kagus]

No, that one does not come with the expansion...  I just picked the first item on the list that wasn't charging six bucks for shipping.  I didn't put all that much effort into finding the thing, you might be able to find a better deal somewhere else.

[Cthulhu]

Oooh, I just remembered, Majesty had an awesome manual.  My favorite PC-game manual of all time.

[Kagus]

Ah yes, that was a lovely little thing...  It skipped on a couple minor details here and there, but it provided a very solid groundwork and was an entertaining read.

As for pirating, not that I engage in it or would recomend it all, if someone were hypothetically going to pirate it i suppose they could download bitcomet. Then, purely hypotheticaly, they may just go on mininova and search: "Majesty". They would, hypotheticaly of course, want to pick the one with the highest number of seeders as this would increase increase their hypothetical download speed. Once their hypothetical download had completed they would probably need to unpack the data archive. Although I have no experience myself in such criminal activities I do believe you will probably want to get the trial edition of WinRar to do this. Our hypothetical person would then probably illegally get Daemon Tools through a similar method, they would then hypotheticaly run it and in the bottom left would be a picture of a little boxlike thing which they would right click on and select mount then select the unpacked file. This would then allow them to install it (hypothetically if it doesnt automatically run go to my computer and double click on the drive with the majesty symbol, a crown) install the game and then follow the hypothetical instruction given to crack it. Our hypothetical person is now ready to play majesty, although they would have to feel very bad about themselves for stealing.


I didnt fool anyone did I? Well make sure you scan it for bugs before you go running anything youve downloaded, and check the comments section if there is anything nasty someone will normally make a comment saying so.

[Sean Mirrsen]

People on out local network were nice enough to put both the Majesty and the Northern Expansion CD's up for everyone to download. I say everyone, though I doubt any of you will be able to get it - most of these people refrain from keeping p2p active when browsing external i-net.

[Keiseth]

I hypothetically obtained it, but I've got two problems; the screen scrolls *extremely* fast, and if I stay in the scenario-select screen too long, it locks up.

Smashing game, though. I don't usually play RTS games, but this one is too awesome to pass up.

[Sean Mirrsen]

I think I somehow solved the ultrafast scrolling in the game, though not on the scenario select screen. And yes, it locks up periodically.

[Cthulhu]

I use the keyboard to scroll, I even turned it down through some configuration file I found while looking around on the site, and it still doesn't work.

According to their FAQ, the fix goes like so:
