i must have missed that thread. heh. oops, /me goes to do forum search.
i can't believe i missed that huge thread. now i feel stupid. 
EDIT: i thought it was a forum game thread. that's why threads should be labelled clearly like this one.

i've only played one game so far in multiplayer. i was the orcs vs the rebels/dwarves. it was a very defensive oriented map so we aborted after a while(we were getting nowhere) but i was really surprised how quickly i picked up the game and how forgiving it is to learn. i quickly learned which units do good vs what just by trying it out.
rts lovers should at least try this game as it gives me the same vibe. that means you drspike!

yeah i mentioned that on the forums. it seems as if most people don't care from what i can tell. if they introduced a time mode so whoever has the most points wins, or king of the hill, some weird version of ctf, etc it might be a lot better.

muxec: i have never even heard of that until now. what does it do? make it so you can level up more?
btw, if anyone wants to play multiplayer private message me. multiplayer is like 10x more fun than single player. single player is too frustrating even though it's not super hard. it reminds me of roguelike games where you can die at any time through no fault of your own.

i played some games today with ages of heros and lots of starting gold(because high level units cost more). can't say i really liked it as much since you generally didn't have to try to level up.
i played 2v2 on a map with a bridge in the middle over water. two humans vs me and a cpu. i am actually pleased i managed to do pretty well considering i'm still a newbie. the cpu didn't help much but he managed to tie down the other player while i destoryed most of the other player's army. my team might have actually won if we had played the whole thing but a few strokes of bad luck and momentum could have turned. i am going to try a few ideas i have for a map which will speed up the game a bit.

I'll get the new version sometime soon, then we can have more epic battles. Those last two games TVK and I played together were awsome, the 1v1 me undead vrs humans, in which the failing (but extremely wealthy due to fast bats stealing all his villages) undead managed to keep the enemy away from the commander long enough for him to get to the ENEMY keep, at which point many skeletons ghosts and acolytes were recruited to kick butt .
in the 2v2 the elves (TVK) were hit right away by the enemy elves, while the undead captured mass villages while trying to get the slow army there. Both elf commanders fell, but TVK was still kickin with a ranger and a couple other units. I managed to get to the dwarf keep before ol' dorfy got back. I then recruited an army and gave chase, with some stalling from TVK the commander was surrounded and beaten to death in a forest about 5/6 or so of the way to TVK's keep. |
That was a hoot. I only had a bad roll against the enemy leader who came rolling in with everything he had at the start while my troops had spread out a bit (did manage to tie the bulk of his force down though). I did attack his leader with about three units but had some bad hits. I lost my leader but managed to take him down in the next turn with my remaining units and got a nice promotion out of it with an elvish captain.
Afterwards it became an interesting match. Shifting fronts, giving chase, cutting them off at the pass, rear strikes and close quarter combat all over the place. 
I'll be around for another game if anyone wants.
