@darkraiders The reason there's no upgrade at those points for Neutral factions is that you already get two production increases of 100% for Neutral buildings.
I've decided to adopt a new tactic. In Perfect Balance, I shall aim to destroy the blocks. In Imperfect Balance, I'll try and build a tower! That way, I shouldn't be too bad at them ^_^
Lol... I captured two of the East Kingdom towns (one of which was the capital) by dying. I played the fight like 5 times and kept re-loading my save afterwards, and the last time I re-loaded, I owned the town I was trying to capture!!
oh, really cool!
