No more "plan attack"

Post by tim_dowd »

Hi,

I am very angry the new patch has no more "plan attack" function! It has been a part of all previous TOAW games!

what we're you thinking taking the heart of the combat sysytem out?

Thanks,

Just curious, how and why do you think it's missing in 3.4.202? [&:] Because it's not. You probably miss the old/default way to open it. I recommend to go to options -> default options -> classic default.
