So I finally got around to playing the game. Great in all aspects, a warfare game seems like to me. The only thing I don't like is the set up of strategy map. IT's always the same. Starting positions, armies and other default things.
This reminds me of my younger days when AOE was the game to play. Everyone would play shang in multi, since they had villagers cost of 35, giving them advantage in the game. Things got mundane and bloody old after a while and I had to give away the cd.
I'm not comparing two games, just the fact that things are set up the same way. I'd hope that WE campaigns would be random in what resources the lands have, variations of armies. STW:WE will come with strategic map online play. I guess things will turn out the same always same set up. If two good players get to play a game, one which chooses a superior location will win. Yes, I know that it's the beauty of the game in the war and tactics of battlefield. Strategy and diplomacy was more of an after thought.
I'd love for the WE to be a bit random, prosperity, income of provinces should change and be more balanced between clans. There's no chance of that happening is there?
