Or, you flee with your important units and run a mob of peasants up against the enemy troops to slow them down. The one button retreats don't take into account such crazy things as tactical choices.
Not if you're still lucid. It's the progressives that are taking us there. :)
You're attacking a concept that's near universal in strategy game design. Calling them factions instead of races doesn't make it any different than gaining new units in C&C. A preset tree is a preset tree. That said, I would prefer a more interesting tech tree implementation, but the faction and start out system is hardly cause to require it.
There are plenty of canned responses from the major reviewers for that. :)

If you have more resources and don't have to worry about failing, there isn't anything changed by having them run out. The guy with fewer resources is running out first, or he'd be walking all over your ass right after you lost your armies with spectacularly bad results. Resources being finite or infinite really doesn't change much. 4X doesn't lend itself very well to the forms of turtling where you butcher massive numbers of enemy units without very many ca
Double entendre is for risque meanings, niether of those are anything resembling inappropriate.
I don't do these vile social networking things. It's bad enough having messenger programs that let people talk to me.
Put what up? Edit: Bah, buggered page loads are the bane of my browsing.
Sorry, but the only people that pay any attention to the core market are the people in the core market. Free advertising by having news agencies pick up the crowds is the most the core market will ever do for the casual gamers. The advertisements for the Wii are why it sold so well, they were catchy and informative. As a hardcore as hardcore gets gamer without an internet connection to do it, I don't even give a shit how many people are interested in a game
Yeah, that's one of the things where SupCom was a major step backwards... A good LOS system is not something impossible to do. It's been done, people are just lazy or cringe at such scary concepts as having their archers outrange their view when walking through a forest.
No idea. I'm still trying to decide whether he's serious or trolling. Supposedly I'm a pessimist, but it never seems to work out that way when I aim for less than rock bottom.
God forsaken perverts are seeing innuendo everywhere these days...
Yeah, they're called cluster bombs. :)
I'm a masochist with 30+ guns lying around, so that's not exactly worrying.
TWOK is perfect, thus any remake would eat shit and die. Maybe some of the others could get by with it...
Heh, if someone thinks that one sucks, maybe I'll have to give em a second shot. I've never managed to make myself play through it.
If I didn't hate taking the easy way out, I'd kill myself in despair. :(
Yeah, I just don't want individual improvements to be more powerful than channelers for researching channeler specific stuff. Having essence wouldn't be particularly important, as you'd have nothing much to do with it compared to the other guy who's nuking your ass with a world ending spell.
Hah! Eat me, you homo! The number hasn't increased yet. :)
If you compare it to the show, I'd take the original at the drop of a hat, minus the extra cheesy episodes. If you compare it to the movies, OMFG that first one sucked. If they follow the same pattern this time around, the next movie will be the best movie ever made in the history of mankind. If they don't improve, I'd still take the original. It's way better than TMP, but nothing on TWOK.
No no no, I want my AI to send care bears after me. All this repetative mentioning of them has me feeling ursicidal.
You've played MoM right? Lots of highly improved cities would eclipse the channeler's personal addition, but individual cities did not. So the guy with oodles of improved cities would research faster than the guy with one, but the channeler alone might be worth three or four cities all by himself.
Bullets are for losers?
I'm not that slow. :( I like all of those, assuming the second is MoM style bonuses and not a massive research center that takes over as the primary research function. The channeler should definitely be the main man when it comes to researching his own spells. After all, if he's the only magic wielding titan, he's the only one that can figure out what titanic things he can do with his magic.
