Default Re: Player controlled battles???

The only time I've noticed a problem with the enemy supply situation is when I've got them boxed in with superior forces. Then, they'll often grow and shrink as they try and deal with supplies. Given a normal amount of room, or a less than overwhelming force bottling them up, they seem to deal with it OK. I haven't studied it though, so I'll keep a closer eye on that.

I'll watch their usage of warding spells more closely, but they seem to be quite willing to guard themselves. They lay a lot of protection spells of various kinds about, although not anything that wouldn't actually come into play. (i.e. no anti-missile spells if the opposition has no ranged troops!) I think they actually tend to use more defensive than offensive spells, but that's something I'd have to analyze more closely before being 100% sure.

Don't take it so seriously..
Anyways a few examples:

"definedly intresting" should be definitely interesting?

"And you even aren't noobs!" should be And you aren't even noobs! ??

etc.

Btw as I said my english is bad as well, so its totally ok of course.

I just know English, a smattering of Spanish, and some rusty Irish Gaelic. My Hungarian is limited to being able to name the Gabor sisters.
