i think the game should let you build mobile units to fight as well as defense or just plain place troops on the ground atleast

it would be nice to have a way to upgrade or place a lot of structures and soldiers quickly, instead of plonking them down one by one

And if you have one of the repair cheeves you can get stuck in an infinite fight where you can't kill the last enemies and they can't kill you.

This game is great, I love building fortresses with lots of angles so you can maximize fire on the enemy.
I will say, playing as the British just isn't fair sometimes, Greenjackets make it so the enemy can't touch your walls. Maybe for Master of Fortresses II, make ranges similar for all factions, but give Greenjackets a chance for headshots (crits)?

early on prussion 3rd tier troops suck due to extremely low range and problems with the icon next to your gold not working well when the entire army is left.

Used to be good, now Too many glitches.....now unplayable. After 5-6 levels some enemies with limitless range show up and destroy everything

so many bugs, this was lucky to get a badge. technically, an elevated unit should never be out-ranged by those on ground level.

I realised the best basic stratagy is to not even build cannons...They are expensive and far less effective then a massive amount of greenjackets. Such a narrow firing arc and slow fire rate, the fact enemies get squashed like bugs just doesn't make up for it...

It would be nice if you could place soldiers on the blockhouse wall. Also like gota7poop said, playable soldiers and men to place in front of the walls. Also The playable guy could possibly send your screen to first person, WITH, HOWEVER, THE REQUIREMENT OF UNITY 3D WEBPLAYER. It should only be needed for this purpose, and not needed to play the game.

needs a playeble soldier and men to place in front of your wall. and you should get to pick your soldiers class but still love it.

I love the game and look forward to seeing a second. I think a second game could open up a world of possibilities. making user levels, cavalry, more effective cannons, less effective greenjackets, more nations, more maps, speed toggle, barricade upgrades and unit strategy like go for closest/farthest/fastest. the idea of the game is great though.

Also, on first level I start with 4.5k but on EVERY OTHER LEVEL I have 2.5k. Why is this? I have all the achievements for extra starting gold too.

the difference in the cannons is not in range but rather in attack speed, with a 4 point difference in between the culverin and grand cannon

Pros: Great game concept, the freeform fotress building is much more exciting than a typical tower defense.
Cons: Uninspired units that differ very little from each other, which causes the game to become very repetitive once you have laid out the general defense plans. Planning is fun, playing the levels is quite dull (lack of new options, just simple upgrades and repairs).
Overall 3/5 - it could've been great if it had more diverse options, though.

Even with the calendar button re-pathing option, it is still possible (and somewhat common) for enemy troops to get stuck on a used Trou do Loup.

How to get Obsessive achievement. Although you cannot manually repair walls during the assault phase, you can repair your keep (blockhouse) as long as you have it selected when you hit "Begin the Assault". Particularly once you have free repairs from another achievement, then you can win an entire skirmish with your keep alone by continually repairing it as it is attacked.

Once you have Overprotective, it's actually quite difficult to get Obsessive, since any lightly damaged walls are already repaired and don't need your help. This leaves you with only heavily damaged walls to fix, which are much rarer.

Also, the cost of unlocking the French Garde does not in fact halve. despite the price changing in the side panel, 1800 is still deducted.

French pros and cons. Although French canon strength is listed as a pro, all canon do the same damage (i.e. instant kill). Since they also all have the same range, the only difference between the three different tiers is firing speed. Also, French con listed is that tier 3 soldiers have nothing special, yet they have pretty awesome damage compared to other troops. This is a big plus, not a con.
