Nice surprise

Wasnt sure I was going to like this, I am normally a fan of modern warfare.....
I was put off by the idea that this was trying to be like a table top minatures game, I couldnt see the point of trying to do that on a PC and didnt think it would work but I decided it was cheap enough to try.
What a suprise, this really works!! its easy to learn exciting to play and makes a nice change from the modern era.
Only two gripes, the mouse pointer is a bit "soggy", feels like I am trying to play whilst drunk, and It could really do with being playable by email. A battle just takes too long to play out online,
So, when the ai loses its appeal as an opponent I will be putting this down...but maybe there will be others in the series to pick up by then, certainly feels like its a game with "legs" in terms of keeping my interest.
...oh and a battle editor would be a really nice touch, sure all this has been said before but just thought I would chuck in my two ha'pneth
....and add something to encourage the diehard "moderns", that this is worth a look.
Thanks a lot Koios, Great game.
