Already in the mix. There was a patch during beta testing that cut down the number of friendly fire casualties by a tremendous degree.

Hi fellow warriors ,im new to dom 2.I enjoy games like HOMM & ROTK, Ive downloaded Dom 1 Its a great game. What features i want in Dom 2 are;

#1 Castle upgrades expansion and add-ons . Like HOMM.
#2 Option to controll Only my god in battle with unites .Feel.
In Dom 1 i feel giving orders to comds is like, Well (rolling the dice cross your fingers) JITTERS.
I had a enemy come at me with 150 unites of (souless long dead) skeltons etc. attacking my castle of 50 unites including god.( Reminds me of LOTR the 2 towers battle. Which i lost the defending castle by a mere 40 enemy unites.

A - there is such a thing - it's called arena death match - winner gets a special weapon and lots of experience

B - there is a way to communicate in game with human players, and trade items, gems, money

C - yeah, there's been a lot of talk about this one…

D - we will have this, according to a recent post by Johan

E - I don't really understand what you're saying here…

E) A Stratigie order > in battle of No unite Retreat( NO routed). a choice in battle order menu to Select. Example . i would have in the begining 20 unites in battle, enemy hits my troops with spell twice, no losses, and then my troops will run away. While the enemy would have 5 illithids unites left and they are still attacking my forces on the run??.Wouldnt common since say to troops if i have more numbers ,shouldnt troops get a boost in morale, to keep fighting???.

Note; the 2 enemy spells are a black ring & a green tear drop.i forgot the names.

Sorry to do this, but its driving me nuts...

Its not 'unites' its units...

As to your suggestion (or complaint, can't quite tell...) E. Its the entire point of moral that you can't force units not to retreat. If you really want that go for mindless troops, or get some priets that can restore moral during the battle.
