I understand that the one reported game and probably the one that I am in the middle of right now (four turns in and will start the fifth, of 14, with only four tank platoons left) are designed versus the AI.
Versus the AI? Regardless, I play the ones that my opponents choose. It worked for CS. Plenty of versus AI could be played against a human opponent. Never, ever, had this experience before. Especially to this degree!
Don't get me wrong. I do like the looks of the new game. I even like some of the new units. Helicopters are cool. I even laughed when a sniper shot one down.
But, I am not fond of the LOS rules.
And, there is the bridge building within six minutes that gets me too!
Zap, in addition to playing the two PBEM games, I've played the boot camps a half a dozen times each, along with the first couple 'size 2' scenarios (more than twice each and from both sides). If you think I am judging too quickly... sobeit. I stated that I was musing and what I was musing over. It really does not take much to form an opinion?
And, am not an "instant pop up, yes man". Never was ... and never will be. So I will not be a cheer leader simply because someone wants me to be.
