Missions

Clearly...missions would be far more useful...and clearly identified...if we had......(yes not even Beane can contain me) a Demo :)


On to missions

Funny would be nice, I think TW games are a bit to serious sometimes......then I blow up my own units and laugh

I tried so hard to stop him, but in the end what could one man do against such single minded passion?

TW games have a habit of being really funny in certain areas (such as General's speeches and Ancillary descriptions. I still remember some of the wonderful speeches in Rome and the ancillaries such as the Pet Sheep. And the description of qquaducts. "What did the Romans ever do for us?"

I just wished the humor would leech out into other aspects of the game.

You know....a great way to show that humor exsists in a game (i am the juggernaut of one mindedness) WOULD BE.....a..............DEMO



On to topic.

Funny things are fun, and I honestly hope our generals get some humorous dialogue. It got kind of boring to just hear. They are weak, we are strong, we will crush them, huzzah

The best generals are insane generals, or the ones that have scary mother in laws.

Generals with the insane trait in Rome had some truly memorable speeches, that had me laughing out loud so much that I couldn't ven fight the battle properly.

I'm trying to remember where I read it, but I'm pretty sure there are going to be missions in Empire. What details I can recall:


As in the two previous games, they'll be optional.

Rewards will more frequently be in the form of prestige points (read: fewer useless/expensive units as "rewards").

Missions will now make more sense. We should see fewer requests to blockade some far-away port of a faction against whom you have no grudge (and/or have barely interacted with).


I also want to say you can even receive missions from both the nobles and the commoners, but don't quote me on that.

I hope you are right Martok! I actually wasn't expecting missions in the game this time around since there was no central authority to issue them. Here's to being pleasantly suprised!

i'd be pleasantly surprised with......(you guessed it)..........a DEMO

That said, peasant missions? I guess the less missions you do the more likely they are to revolt. Still if your king and listening to the people, what's point of being king
