Skill Level Rule

Elite is the way :-)

I nearly always ask and usually people are agreeable. I have a few regular opponents I know really like Iron, for them I go with their flow since I don't hate Iron, I just prefer a simpler life. Personally I would consider a request for Warrior after making the case for Elite but anything lower than that would be a no go for me. I can tolerate some icon display annoyances and some extra clicking but as soon as you start messing with artillery call times I'm not interested any more. A big part of the game is trying to time hitting your opponent and trying not to get blasted yourself. As soon as the times are shorter all of that gets harder - or at least different enough to mess with your learning.
