Default Re: Understanding battle strategies...newbie question

Grandpakim has this to say:

Quote:
One of the best moves I ever made was to go into DefaultStrategies.txt and change the whole works to the way I wanted it. Now any changes I make are mere refinements to a system I like. A big time saver. Oddly enough, the only thing you can't change (except in-game) is the damage percentages-- no entries in the text file.
What a great idea!

But we newbies have a problem. We may know what we want, but we do not know how to get there! Even worse, we do not know if what we want is even possible to achieve.

Until we have some understanding how the "Strategies" menu works, we can only flounder around...

I think SE4 loses a lot of players who give up in frustration... and then move on to other games where they are given enough information to make intelligent decisions (which makes them feel better)
