Redux: size-settings...

[daigaku]

Hi,

• On what size-settings do you play Redux? ....Default/Maximum/Other (what then)?
• Do you play on different size-settings while playing Redux as to MTW1? ....Y/N? (If so, what sizes might that be then? Any reasons why?)

- A

I never bothered with size settings, always used the default ones. Not being too trained with epic battles ´cos of lack of machine power I was (and still am) glad to have not too many men on the screen to "care" for ;-))

(and I love small, effective units. Now playing redux, it´s simply fun to see units of 10 or 20, highly skilled and trained (valour min. 3, morale well beyond 10, armour and weapons upgraded), to smash into units of 60 or 100 - and walk through them ;-)) Done so with Norse Bodyguards(20) and Pathfinders(10), as well as with "ordinary" Norse Spearmen(only 40!!). On the other hand, I do see the beauty of a unit like 100 Lithuanian Cavalry - nothing better to clean out a battlefield ;-)) )

So for me the choice of default might be lack of experience with battles. Others who did use the TacMap more might have found something in higher settings for their gameplay - for me, I would even choose smaller units to specialize still more within one stack to make battles as interesting as possible....but if the Pathfinders are down to 5 men they won´t do much damage any more, so - default will stay my choice...
