All's fair in war, sometimes 6 people don't reduce the opposing army. If you had real dice you would probably get close to the rolls on here. Tough luck that you got killed, but at least you got to go on to your next game.
MrJ17, I see you bring up "problems" with the game. 1. If you place troops at the end of everyone's turn, there is no defense from the people playing after you, so this won't work. 2. Some of the best strategy and game-play come from the first 2 turns when you either make or break yourself based on how you play. Maybe you get unlucky, or someone trolls you, but that means you get to go play another round where maybe you get to go first this time. 3. The advantage of first and second is only important when you are new to the game. Lopdo has done a good job of removing that with races and larger maps. If you play right, there is no advantage to going first. As a later player you can see what they are doing, predict them and stop them, where red and blue have to move blindly. As I see it there are no problems to fix. I do agree with your 'want to see's' but we have been asking for that stuff for awhile, it is up to Lopdo. Thx for the suggestions, and I hope you continue to play!
I hate you too for hating a game for no stated reason, so yes you get a minus :P And no, the sequel better be Vortex Wars 2, because its a sequel, not a new game :)
If you learn how the dice roll then you can stategically place units accordingly, also this is based on RISK! which uses dice to determine battles, so no the game didn't take the "low road" its staying true to it's roots.
YAY! I get to inform another dumb noob.....The 30exp penalty is for those ppl that just join and quit immediately, give you a reason to stay and actually play the game. Also, exp dosent actually do anything, so if you lose some you will be just fine, maybe a little further from your next rank....but thats no big deal. Lastly, try and pay attention to whats going on around you, so you don't put yourself in those situations. I doubt you parents just jump up and decide you all need to go somewhere, there is almost always advance planning, so it your fault you lost the exp, ty and have a nice day :)
No JoeyH4, then ppl would just start their own games and get forst everytime. People would also for alliances and make sure they are the first 3 or whatever. Also, you punish those that come in after, for what? becasue the didn't click the game a soon as you? No, the system is good, try suggesting fixes for things that are actually broken next time.
The first turn advantage isnt so much of an andvantage unless you are playing extrmely close quarters, alot of times the later players will get better spots away from people, and odds are somone will end up fighting red immediately, the players counteract it.
You need to play everyone, if a high level wants to play you, take it as a learning experiance. And no, there does not need to be a transfer system, it would be nice but that is what stategy is for. If you are stupid enough to place an 8 in a corner or ur playing random and it puts one in the corner, that is all part of the game, its what you do with ur units once they are placed that detirmines how you do.
