Want to Know More

I am thinking of buying BA and the new MG module. The sale price is great btw.

Is the Multiplayer format/menus as easy to use as the ones for Field of Glory? I really like that format.

From what I read of the game it looks good. I like the idea of a server based PBEM transfer format. Can someone post a screenshot of what it looks like?

Yes it is the same PBEM++ system as FoG.

Thanks Ian, surprised with such a large group here that a "quick reply" :wink: was not forthcoming sooner! :D

Hi Iain,

I recently bought the game plus both expansions but was disappointed to see that its not possible to select a force in a multiplayer game using a points system - I believe you can do this in FoG.

Is this something that you would consider as a future enhancement?

Regards,
Neil

Adding improved flexibility to the MP side is the main task for 1.8 (the version after Sealion). We agree that it would add a lot of the game, although it does mean we will need to be more careful about balancing the MP maps and force pools.

Cheers

I usually play almost only multiplayer games so this is welcome for BA!
