I vote for this, but leave it as a option so the hardcore types dont get uppity. I'd recommend stardock not listen to people who are intent on ruining the game for a vast majority of people. Options are good, people being fascist gamers and saying there is only on way to play; the hardcore way is bad for any game and is not conductive to a successful product.
Repeatedly making hate posts is allowed in the forum now? Don't worry, I'm so quickly checking if there is Ignore option in this forum that you can keep spitting "fascist" in your postS as much as you want. And if there isn't, my eyes are bound to slid over all your posts like if they weren't there. Permanently.
When I'm a newb, or when I want to experiment with different ideas, a redo button would be great. When I want a real challenge, then hardcore "no save" mode would be awesome as well.
I find it hilarious that some people are getting upset because some guy in another state may be playing the game differently than them .
There is no right way to play the game.
They are called Difficulty Levels. Anyone can experiment there. Experirments in higher difficulty levels? Can do too. Yes, you can play in other ways if Stardock offers you the options. Right way to play the game? There is. And that is according to the options given in the game. So if Stardock says "Hey, we add a Redo battle option.", then it becomes one of the right ways to play the game.
Calling "hardcore" not having the Redo button is silly. Elemental hardcore? Really? Hardcore is Europa Universalis. Hardcore is Shogun.
Adding "Redo" button to Elemental wouldn't make it "casual" game though.
