So I got neutral countries to 6 and they still fell to the card you can't block.
Nevermind, I didn't die. I got a draw.
The game has crisp and clear graphics, and it is fun to play.
However, about half the games or more, the AI will have this thing where I end my turn and then the AI gets stuck forever.
Skirmish doesn't have this problem.
If knights charge from a lake, they kill the other unit sometimes, but they always die right after.
I'm really puzzled that people are seem very shocked and amazed by this after Dune 2000, which is very easy to obtain (Certainly if you use any of the fan remakes that use different software).
Also, this is newer than all the remakes of Dune 2000.
Is the story better or something?
I've played Dune 2 before and the interface was just.... Hard to use.
BTW, I was inspired to boot up Jagged Alliance 2 and play it.
I noticed that in that game, enemies only drop like a magazine and rarely a whole gun.
In this game, units drop broken guns and those are at least worth like 30, and if they're like a Mini UZi, they're worth 200.
I'm also a fan of not having to constantly wonder how to get ammunition. Even on the worst days a bullet is like 5 dollars and a old pistol is worth 40 times as much. It's not worth managing the cost and supply of ammunition.
I found the intro to be a mixture of charming, funny, and campy. The only problem is the music was almost louder than the person narrating and I didn't have any subtitles. I barely have any idea what was said to be honest.
Three times, one of my team members was interrupting and the game got stuck. It was never the main character, but always the second guy you meet. No idea why.
Other than that, I haven't noticed anything weird or odd.
Lowkey fan of the "WTF" people say when they see an enemy.
The leader of the SA was gay, working class (Hated the rich and wanted a revolution, and was a veteran nationalist.
So it is entirely possible that the nationalists could've been won over from the Nazis towards a more moderate political faction.
The game allows you to have arrests and purges, which could target some nationalists and win over others. Healthcare would also win over people like the leader of the SA, as would dividing the communists and socialists. (The socialists refused to take orders from Moscow and had closer ties to Germany).
Purging the military while you are offending the upper classes, could also mean purging the upper-class interests from the military. These are all options.
