I am still having a problem with the Garde achievements in game. It shows that the deploy and unlock costs are less, but it still subtracts the full amount from my holdings, and will tell me I don't have enough money when the full amount isn't available.

In the hard map ultima ratio regum seems that there is a bug. All the troops spawing at the top can walk trough barricades and walls.

I hate how the campaigns are no challenge, yet the infinite mode gets 1 hit kill on earthworks later from any tier 3/engys. It wouldn't be so bad if the cannons didn't all fire at waves of near useless level 1 soldiers instead of the 3 waves of grenaders about to knock down a whole level of wall in a second or 2. Because at this point, they are near superman's health , and 3 layers of greenjackets can't even kill them.

the whole point of the different cannons is much better fire rate once you get to the grand cannon (2-3 second interval between shots compared to around 10 seconds for the culverien)

It's an ok game, but needs a couple more badges to make it seem more worthwhile. +1 to Bastions without the need for palisades as well.

If somebody thought out a way for you to take the offensive on enemy positions in this game, a 'conquer the world' map could make this game a lot better. Defend your territory from enemy attacks, while taking more territory for yourself in the process

I somewhat enjoyed the game. I like fighting the Prussians as a British and killing them with my greenjackets before they reach me. I've done a hard stage like that (skipping the medium ones), the one where you're surrounded, and as soon as I got greenjackets in place, the rest was a peace of cake, and eventually got the 10 000 bullets achievement. Now, I truely think this game deserves more badges D:

Just one medium badge for earning a couple of achievements (too easy!), despite there are so many options and challenges, and despite it's such a great game?! Shabby!

EDIT: Campaign Honor Earned! "I HATE THOSE GUYS!" This was spot on. 5/5 for this quote alone. I love this game, didn't even feel quite like a tower defense. Please make more.

I like most of the things in this game and it is a nice change from traditional tower defence. Rotating the bastions is a fantastic idea, I just wish I could extend that to being able to have my soldiers run around the palisades as they need to. Enemy attacking from the North? Don't worry, we'll just watch the South for a few days. Also I like in traditional tower defence/RTS/etc clicking on an enemy to see its hp. You can press "e" for a health bar, but seeing the actual hp gives you an idea of how many of what unit to place and where. Great game though, really enjoying it :-)

I was able to beat the whole game without losing a single unit by using only greenjackets on palisades. no cannons, barricades or traps on any map

The French seem to have developed soldiers that can shoot the length of the field and stayed back to kill my cannons from out of their range.

I have all France's in-game achievements, but even though the cost for the guard is listed as 72 it still costs me 95 to actually build them.

Was the badge based upon the comment of undinechan by any chance? ;)
"I wish there was a way to make the cannons hold fire. 'Don't fire until you see the whites of their eyes' kind of thing". :D
The game is okay... it has a good atmosphere but in the end it's still just a tower defence game which are hard to keep interesting, making you much rather to play Empire Total War. :P

The fast-forward button speeds things up by about 25% from what I can see. Not only doesn't it really speed anything up, but it is a click and hold button. That might make sense if you could change things during a wave, but you can't.
For a tower defense game Master of Fortresses if extremely shallow. There are basically only 3 types of weapon to use. The traps are pretty much useless in most situations. The cannons are way overpowered, but too slow to reload. Once you set up puckle guns you are pretty much invincible. At least there is only one badge.

Wait-now I'm confused. How does the game define spending money: the total, or does it account for refunds, like replacing a palisade with a curtain wall?
Under rating threshold (hideshow)
There needs to be a way to toggle speed, a shift+click option for building walls would be nice, a hold fire for the cannons would be nice, all the cannons (cept the puckle) do the exact same thing, the British tier three infantry are way to pwnage and can beat any lvl in a group of 15 surrounding the fortress on earthen walls if not fewer. Otherwise nice game I enjoyed it but the music is kinda lame and it always stops when the waves start and starts between them...

Nevermind-seems the system erroneously awarded me the "Logistics Genius" honor when I actually failed the requisites...

Day 21 of unlimited mode: Half the attacking army stops just out of range of my defenses and waits, while the other half proceeds to absolutely rape my earthworks walls with what look like oneshots, while ignoring a massive hailstorm of bullets. What.

One badge? You said badges on friday, and all we get is one badge on monday? how about..It's heading right towards us (hard) for survival?

Trick to not holding the "Hold Button":
"Left Click" the "Hold Button", then while you are holding it, "Right Click" the "Hold Button". Then you can let go of the mouse. "+" to keep this knowledge.

I like how there's a hidden timer on the levels, so if it's taking to long the left-over enemies just die. Great since it sometimes glitches and an enemy gets stuck shooting at nothing out-of-range. 5/5
