Very nice game from first impression, stylish and fun. I think it really needs an end-mission screen where you can see your casualties. I'm already starting and already find it difficult to manage my army.
You see indeed don't see your casualties in the end mission screen, thats true, but a real marauder always knows how to manage his army!! Anyway, i personally manage it through the storage, so thats also a good place for that. Just keep playing than you'll notice that it's easier to keep track!!

Judging by the top comments, the Devs seem really nice. Im glad the game worked out well and I love it. No games perfect but this hits as one of the best of its genre.
I don't think thats why wer are game of the month, i would be happy to discuss that more and deeper with you, but for now have fun playing marauders!
Cheers legolas
How could we improve this, i mean we have never had this comment before. We would be glad to make it less offensive if it such a big deal for you.. Cheers legolas
Can you play the rest of the game? Have you been able to play the 3D battles? And do you meet the system requirements? Can you tell me what kind of system you use, video card, browser etc.

when i see a one shield raid i do not want to find that the enemy bring more troops than i can possible field and that they do more damage than my units do
it means that the AI cheats to create a artificial difficulty that is much higher than the shield suggests and so trumps any chance of doing a raid and the other missions pay out so low that leaves me stumped at how to actually play the game.
That is understandable. However, the AI difficulty is based both on the shields and on the amount of wins you've had. The AI adjusts according to your skill. It's not ideal system, but it keeps the game interesting, challenging and balanced for everyone. Unfortunately, this sometimes means that the AI difficulty is a little to high for a player and that can only be resolved by losing a couple of times.

geez...if I`m opening a Match in PVP I expect an EQUAL enemy. Dear developers, there should be an option where you can set up who will be able to join the match. Equal (+/- 1,2 lvl) Stronger (+2 or more lvl can join the Battle) Anyone (every lvl) - something like that. I`m Level 8 now and haven`t played any PVP-Battle yet - just because each and every time some High-Level-Player is joining the match (Level 13, 24 and even worse) and is taking the place. WTF is wrong with those ppl? Go and look out for an Enemy at YOUR size, cowards. *shows her middlefinger and gets back marauding* ;D
That is indeed really annoying. You can always try to get someone to enter the battle with you. That way you can choose who you fight against. At any case I will forward your suggestion to the devs.
MechanicalAngel
In addidtion to this; @Sarahkreuz, the pvp system is in place for more then a year now. We know the things you menton should be ideal, but at this moment that isn't a high priority. Wht usually happens in in the chat is that people meet to play a battle. You can join the world chat (the tab at the right next to the normal kongregate chat) to meet players from all other platforms. That way there are enough players to choose from also round your level. I hope your still like the game with this 'workaround' and indeed happy marauding!! Cheers Legolas

When you sell units from your storage, it states that you only get a 40% return, however everytime I sell any units I dont get anything!
Hi SephirothLaw,
You get your money i'm sure, there could be a little lag there when you sell them. However you don't get any message so maybe that's causing confusion..

I really don`t like the fact that I have to spend Gems to open some boxes. DAMN, even on Christmas. :( I hope that you guys are not overacting it - so far I spend 20 to 30 Gems and I`m only playing this for a couple of days. But anyways I like this Game so I just wanted to support it. But...yeah...you know, I really would like to get by for a while with the 99 Kongregregate-Kreds that I`ve contributed.
Hi SarahKreuz,
Thanks for you support for our game. The boxes you got untill Christmas are from our adven calander action. BAsically those are boxes that hang around in your storage and you can do whatever you want with it. They stay there untill the end of times. I know a lot of players keep them in their storage to open them on a level where they need to new units. Next to that there are enough free gems to gain in-game especially at the early levels. However, we do need to make some money of this game ofcourse so yeah :). My advice is to open some o the crates on the lower levels and keep some of the for the lvels that you find harder to overcome but in general, spending ges on boxes is way batter since you get way more units and resources out of it then you woud normally get on the Black Market or such..
Cheers Legolas
Hi Elmyr,
The tutorials are there and they are pretty much 'quests'. If you go through the tutorials you will make it to level 3 and then there are more quests availible.. So have fun Marauding!!
Cheers Legolas
HI OneLiner,
About what quest are you talking, the first one? I think you complete the tutorial and you can go to the normal game screen to proceed with the second one. If not and if you still face problems, could you describe it a bit more in details so that we can try t reprodue it and fix the problem, if thre is one?

@SGTSEIP
in game client: options (the tool icon), audio option, disable turn notification
the most important part of every feature is a button to turn it of. This turns a good game into a great game :)

The overall appearance of the game is quite nice. I like the old fashioned round based battle system as well as the development part particularly.
Things i would like to see improved:
XP bars for all units (do units even carry on their battle exp if they dont level up?) and the ability to pick them for battle individually (so to level up more easily)
more tactical approach on the heroes (skills?) so to personalize them further
ability to counter attacks in battle (saving action points as means of indicator)
Looking forward to future development.
Meantime: Merry X-mas and a happy new year!

uhm please make the game use no turn base if you can or make it like that in the other game if you want to make the second game from this
hi Zyllyn,
This is a pretty good idea, and i'm in discussion with our devs to see if we can build it in and realease it with the next patch. Can't promis you anything right now, but i'll do my best. When i know more i get back to you in this conversation!!
Cheers Legolas
Hi AriezaJ,
I think you mean the advent boxes, right? Cause the Kongergae pack that we gifted to all new Kongregate players is for Kongregate users only and free to open. Those advent boxes are a big thing in our complete comunity and a tradition for multiple years now. Some of them cost some gems, other cost gold or iron.All of them are pretty easy to open. Next to that you can gain enough gems ingame to use them and you can save the crates to open them on other (higher) levels to get better rewards.
So please don't see this as an annoying feature.. see it as an opportunity, cause the rewards you get out of the boxes are way more worth then if you try to get them on other ways.. as an example, sometimes to open a box i costs you 1000 gold, but you get 3000 gold and 4 units out of it)

you should have a natural gold/iron regeneration. what happens when youve run out of cash and all your troops are destroyed?

So my hero can do a lvl3 assault/smuggling mission with no problem, but a lvl2 raid is impossible? Balance Fail -2 to rating.
Hi Mewvg, I dunno why you think it works this way, but it's absolutly not true.. You can play lvl 2 raids and even level 3 raids. Premium raids will be available on a later level, out of my head around lvl 5. It's sad that you base your score on this only, cause our game has much more to offer. I would advice to play a bit further to see things on a higher level, cause there will be more and more features unlocked... Have fun Marauding! Cheers Legolas!

I started out liking this game. And then the army that I had carefully built up (including the rare unit from the starting box) was casually wiped out on a level 2 raid.
The difficulty of opposing forces seems to vary widly. I had done a level 3 raid and handeled it nicely, so to be casually wiped out has soured the game for me.
The permanent loss of rare units seems targeted at getting players to re-pay for those units...and is distasteful.
I'm sorry to hear that. I understand that is sucks that your rare units got wiped out. However, at higher levels you'll have more variaty at the units you can build.

I really hate Iron Grip: Marauders! The main cause of this was the game-play; the unbalances in game play (caused by all the stupid & needless upgrades), the bad graphics, and the internet troll infestation in the game & the games forums! The additional loading screen to get into the game-play is total nuisance and downright stupid as hell; the lackluster on-screen lags are extremely big issues; and the menu interface is, quite simply neither “attractive nor persuasive” (it is just plain ugly). Again, this is my opinion, if you don't like what I post – then, simply, don't read it, but I'm still going to say it anyways , it’s is never nice to see a badly made game with the addition of a PvP (I call it an internet trolls playground)!
I say this because I was one of many online beta testers for this game!
