Re: The cheezy and exploitive MP tactics thread
I think it kills a movement phase. That can mess up a well laid plan where the other guy wants multiple armies to meetup.
Personally, Id consider it to be real-world realistic (or at least movie-world realistic). A smart scout cant cause an army to dig-in for one turn?

Re: The cheezy and exploitive MP tactics thread
I'm 90% sure that I have stopped armies with single commanders. Are you thinking it's because the scout is coming out of stealth?
Mists of Deception + Wrathful Skies + Retreat is, of course, cheesy and exploitive.

Re: The cheezy and exploitive MP tactics thread
I know I have done this many times in sp.
It doesn't always work.. but it works often enough to make it valuable.

Re: The cheezy and exploitive MP tactics thread
Deepest apologies, guys. Very, very, deeply sorry. So on and so forth. I haven't been around much since last year and as stated in the OP, I didn't find any equivalent threads. Thank you for your input, though.

Re: The cheezy and exploitive MP tactics thread
The only one I can really remember is Mists of Deception + Wrathful Skies followed by retreat. The battle just keeps on going...
There are other bugs as well, but not many non-bug exploits that I know of. Not that bugs will be likely to be fixed, since Illwinter has more important things to do, like creating overpowered nations of cannibalistic giants.   |
