Default Re: This might interest me...

I play almost entirely solo. And this game has lived for years on my machines. Some points of interest are:

A) each nation is unique with its own abilities.

B) The balance is not just matched units with different color uniforms. The nations are not equal to each other. They are balanced rock-paper-scissors. One nation might do well vs another nation but there is yet some other nation which does well against them.

C) Some claim to have winning strategies but you will notice that there is always disagreement on such things. In my opinion, the only winning strategy is to find the nation which best matches the way you play (keeping in mind that someone elses perfect match will be some other nation)

D) Testing all the nations and finding which ones worked best for me took me longer than most games stay on my computer.

E) for some reason I never felt distracted by the lack of graphics.
