Matrix Games Forums

I am playing the demo, not the full game. This game is innovative and holds lots of promise.

Even in the 2 tutorial games in the demo, I cannot beat the AI because I don’t yet understand the game.

I was hoping the current fans of the game could write an AAR. It doesn’t matter whether you are playing against the AI or against a human. The purpose is not to write about an exciting battle at all.

Rather, the purpose is to describe the features of the game for those of us who know little or nothing about it. An AAR should read like this:

“Due to such and such a feature I did this thing and I suspect that the opponent will use some other feature and therefore do something or other.” And then go ahead and describe those features.

And of course diagrams can take the place of 1,000 words. The diagrams need to illustrate the features. It is not necessary to take a full screen shot. Sometimes a screen shot that shows only 5% of the screen illustrates the point better.

I was hoping a player of the current game could write an AAR in that style.

Joe,

check out The Drop Zone and look in the Articles and AARs sections.

Bil Hardenberger's Operational Combat Principles is a great read.

Also make sure to read the documents that go along with the demo, they make things a little easier to understand in terms of the interface (though I think you want something a bit more in-depth).
