Author | if AI carravan's settlement could be previewed... |
you dont know what units would appear,dont know what fomation they would be settled,that increase the difficult a lot,also reduce the fun of the fight.
if we can preview them,ofcoz i mean AI only,i think we can perform a much better fight.
what do u think? |
nah... just pretend that you are playing with another player. Besides, that's the point of doing thieves, we need to fight hard to steal the money (although the arts are much more expensive). =) And this will also make the battle more challenging. |
Well I think the fun of doing ambushes is that you don't know what to expect.
You need to make a formation which you think will be best and if it works it's totally your skill. |
not seeing the enemy formation is the best part of ambushing. you never know what you're up against until you click start.
however if you fight many ambush battles you start to get the general idea of what you will face and where certain units are usually placed within the setup area. (for example ranged units are usually fully surrounded by melee units or like certain elf battles druids or upgraded druids and melee units) large fast units (rocs, griffens, cavalry etc) are usually on the perimeter of the setup area. and other generalities of this nature.
there is a finite number of setups and while they are random they will repeat in the long-run either being stronger or weaker depending on how you have fared against them in the past. |
and if we could see what we catch before i set an ambush, then i can also set my favoured enemy...
Wont happen >.> then it would become too easy |
Sven: If you see the troops settlement before hitting start you cant set your favourite enemy. But anyway, not the best idea. |
