Default Re: Gandalf\'s Crazy Solo Games

Been playing the poke in the eye map, love it.

One thing I wish - mobs/pretenders were categorized. i.e. militia - mid infantry = lvl 0, cav and some specials = lvl 2, mages = lvl 3, nasty mobs = lvl 4, pretenders = lvl 5...or something similar depending on difficulty. Then have lvl 4s and 5s just be commanders, with the rest being troops. Make sense?

Love the idea, love the randomness, love starting out with a free commander/stuff (I like it as an RPG as well, very commander concentrated - most of the fun for me). With that being said, its kind of silly when i start with a troop of horrors or a troop of melee pretenders Or face them for that matter. I spent like 2 hours just re-creating games to see some combinations, some were super weak (mages w/o magic, some were unreal (20 free horrors/gatekeepers), and some just wierd (20 baphomats - immobile).

I tried Jack's tool once, and will be testing further. Is there a way to simulate the free commander/troops on yours Jack?

Speaking of re-creating games - is there anyway to just "re-create game" with all the same settings? Or to have a standard settings file that you can choose? For instance, I hate starting in the midst of a map and will recreate till I get near an edge (my form of cheating), but while its still only a 2 minute process to start up a new game it gets old. Any thoughts?
