But that is not the same as stack combat. I cant see how individual unit attacks all the time is going to work in MP. When I played CTP2 MP, the Yanks got the shits if you took 2 minutes for a move.

That, & their starting location would suck on real maps, since S. America is mostly mountains & jungles.

As the majority of people play on random maps, that would not be a valid reason for excluding them.

sure, it'll sell there. but firaxis probably isn't going to find a cash cow over there in ptw. nor will it ever, not with tbs games. |
I think 90% of the korenas are playing Warcraft 3 right now.
Great game BTW.

last 2 icons: something with regicide? locate enemys king?
any ideas? |
sabrewolf,
When I first saw the screenshots, this portion drew my attention the most. I agree with you that the first two icons represent:
icon 1: build road, then colony
icon 2: build road to
For the rest on the first row, I suggest some changes:
icon 3: automate road building/interconnect cities
icon 4: as the 'home' picture is used for "build city", this probably means auto-irrigate around this city or irrigate to a city you select
icon 5: automate around city you select? (somehow auto-mine doesn't make sense even though that would be the logical extension from the last two - and where's the pick-axe anyway?)
icon 6: identical to icon in middle row - probably a mistake from when Firaxis regrouped it with the other automate buttons but forgot to remove it from the original location.
icon 7: automate w/o replacing existing improvement
icon 8: go to city. I'm assuming a pop-up list appears. (Hopefully with a mini-world map and zoom-in view of selected city. It was so annoying in Civ2 w/o anything like that)
icon 9: not some chat stuff. It just doesn't make sense to include it down with the unit actions. And what do you suppose all of those blurb icons are next to the leader names up top? I'm not really sure what this one could mean...unless...maybe you get to name your units.
middle row: nothing new
lower row:
3rd last icon: probably patrol (hope you get to set the points to cover), though could also mean 'explore'
last 2 icons: Probably to do with escort services. First (plain sword) means 'protect', and then you choose which unit. Second (with arrows heading to it) means 'find cover' and then you choose which gaurdian.
Alright, we seem to have mostly gotten that. Now why hasn't anyone mentioned all those new buttons in the lower right above the info box? Obviously the arrows cycle through menus or something, but I have no idea what.

Guaraní is the most spoken language in Paraguay, and is winning positions every day. |
interesting... my ex-girlfriend is from paraguay and spoke a "1 sentence spanish, 1 sentence guaraní" with the other paraguayans. she said how this language had survived, even though it was forbidden for a very long time under some dictatorship (sorry, don't know any more about that). impressive.
if you think - we've got languages in europe noone want's to speak, but the governements put in tons of money to keep it. but if it's forbidden, it can survive generations 
ok, i'm completely off-topic, so to make this post a bit on-topic:
laszlo, i think you things make a lot more sence. the chat-stuff of course is wrong. i heard it some posts earlier. ABC looks a bit like civilopedia, but why with the worker action buttons. if it were in the general unit part, it would make more sence. ... we'll see

But WC3 isn't a Turn Based Statagy. Koreans are all for Real Time Stratagies, but they don't really care for TBS.

? and DON'T YOU DARE to say it's a medieval infantry, when you take a closer look it's not. Maybe Carthage? 
So... Is better see Aztecs building cities in Argentina?
