Default Re: I dunno, guys...

Don't worry, they will be back once SE5 comes out...

The game has some really poor design decisions that make it not much fun to me... stuff like missile combat being poorly implemented (you mean my archers can't figure out how to aim at that single giant, and instead will pelt the ground for 100s of yards around him with arrows for no good reason?), a good chance of your units breaking morale and running away when they are handily winning the battle, the lack of empire-wide management, the lack of meaningful infrastructure development, etc. Not to the mention the lack of customization options during gameplay... The game just doesn't seem very polished... Sure, it has a ton of spells and items and whatnot, but the gameplay is lacking... It is certainly not as bad as Dominions I was though... Maybe Dominions III will be a good game.
