There's all sorts of things you could add
Yes, there are all sorts of things you COULD add to this game, but the very simple fact of the matter is that I've played this game more than any other game on newgrounds... probably one or two rounds of this game per day in the last two weeks.
If you had added any complexities to it, it probably would have upset the nice simple satisfying strategic balance the game currently has.
Take a game like chess and start adding experience points and air and sea units and nobody's going to want to play it. Sometimes less is more, and in this case it definitely was.
Some notes:
-I've only encountered one bug. A few different times an enemy's unit has gotten 'stuck' on a tile... even though it has been destroyed and in terms of game play is no longer there, it will remain there visually until the end of the game, even once that faction is destroyed.
-After all this time I'm still not certain I understand the logic used to replenish units. I understand it's based on how many cities/tiles I have, but how are they distributed? It appears to be somewhat random, and yet often times there are cities that even though I 'own' them, will never see a unit created on them for the entire game. I also wonder sometimes if by having a city with 99 units on top of it, if I'm forgoing the units that might have wanted to generate there, or if the game is smart enough to redistribute them elsewhere? In fact this could prove a worthwile strategy... get your cities in the far corners stocked up with 99 men and then just leave them there to sort of force the unit generation to happen on the cities closer to the battle's front.
Whether I win or lose this game seems to be determined by three things:
-If I pick a starting location that I can spread out to many cities very quickly in the first few turns.
-How many enemies have turned their attention toward me vs each other
-How the first few battles for occupied cities go. If I lose a city or two in the beginning, I'm likely done. If I capture a city or two in the beginning I've likely already won. It's for that reason I use my morale booster toward the very beginning of the game, making sure I have highly populated groups of units to allow for maximum morale boost.
whoohoo!
cool, but i was the 3,800th voter!!
cool gamme though
Pure Awesomeness
That is really fun, in-depth, and addicting. Hope to see a 4-player version!
