Screenies look great!

I like the Indian ox drawn chariots! didnt realize they were still using oxen in war, good stuff

Would any beta testers be able to comment on this new feature?

3.Add: Logic: Ability to give more than one move order to any one unit in each player turn.


Does that mean one can move a unit one hex, then go and move other units and then go back to that original unit to move again?
If this is the case it will be a large game play change, much more so than double moves

The OX carts are Indian battle wagons. I think they are rated poor but can't recall exactly.

No, that's not how it works, you cannot give one move order, then move another unit, then return to the original unit and complete its move.

Anyway, it's a good improvement in my opinion because it lets you ensure the facing of the unit better. Have you ever moved a skirmisher backwards two squares and forwards one square? In the old version, you could do this, but you had to make the shaded arrow go back upon itself, which could be tricky. Anyway, now you can just move backwards two squares, then click the square that is one forward, thus not having to play with the arrow all in one movement phase so that the unit faces the way you want.

It doesn't let your unit move any further than it would originally have been able to, and doesn't appear to open up any new facing possibilities either; it just makes it easier to do.

Some of the new features of Immortal Fire are listed as:

Enhanced A.I. opponent

New optional game rule of ‘double’ moves

Improved line of sight/Fog of War rules.

Changes to the evade and pursuit rules.

Are these the same enhancements included in 1.2.8 or are they new tweeks since 1.2.8?

"Ability to cut and paste battle group information in the scenario editor."

Very good

Thanks Chris, just wondering why the redundancy.
