You missed the point I think, I was never meaning to belittle anyone.
I was not talking about 2D sprites, I was making points based on features not graphics ( I mentioned an "unrealistic castle" once in my whole post, big deal), please reread my post and don't be disparaging about me when I have afforded you the same courtesy, I was making my points thats all.

I am not disparaging you personally, I'm referring to your post. I took it all as a whole even though I only quoted that one bit, and I read it all, and found it to be pretty offensive. Telling someone [who] "bitches about a game after numerous 20 turn games should stick to FPS" is pretty obnoxious, his style of play and views has nothing to do with his opinions, nor does it make them less valid that anyone else's.

Another one of your points that I will agree with that I did NOT miss from MTW was the refusal to engage by an inferior force. Chasing someone across the map for the better part of an hour trying to pin them down or in a corner was incredibly lame and obnoxious, so that I agree 100% with and do NOT miss in the slightest.

Guys it's EASY to pin an inferior force. It takes 2 turns. First move your force next to the enemy, but DO NOT ATTACK. Then next turn, attack, and they will run, but they can't move as far retreating as your army can with its full movement points. So go hit them a second time. An army can't run away twice in the same turn.

Thanks for the pointer there mate... But we aren't talking about M2TW and RTW, we're talking about MTW. And we aren't talking about the campaign map, we're talking about the battle itself.
