Trench Warfare

[AndyDufresne]

awesome, so many new tactic options, but almost all games starts and ends in dice lucky of course before dice, you can loss your game due to not equal drop, but it is "nice" to imagine that new options can make this game more tactical lets continue draeaming more

Definitely is nice to see a new feature introduce some new tactics and strategy into the mix.

It's jut like Risk here in Brazil where they took the game and worsened the rules and created the more inbalanced game ever. Defence plays whith 3 dices and all. It's called "WAR".


It's risk so it may be good after all.

Got my silver medal already am i first?

[chapcrap]

Got my silver medal already am i first?

Yes.

[Swifte]

Got my silver medal already am i first?

Based on there currently being 44 Trench Warfare medals awarded to 43 people, I would guess that yes, you are first to silver. Congrats! Go for the Gold Ollie!

[eddie2]

balls you just beat me.

[AndyDufresne]

Oooh, nice work! Is Ollie on the fast track now to getting gold, or will someone else swoop in?


--Andy

[trinicardinal]

eddie's trying to give him a run for his money... especially since Ollie beat him to silver

[codierose]

is the medal going to be added to map rank

[Swifte]

is the medal going to be added to map rank

From the MapRank thread...

is there gonna be a competition running to support the new trench feature?

I haven't heard about one, and considering that it will be quite easy to add, and the response to the previous competition was not huge, I would be surprised if a new competition were to be held for this.

Emphasis added... sounds like it should be an easy change to maprank... so hopefully, yes.

After playing a number of these games I have to say I think it makes for entirely crappy and one-sided games.

It may not be a stellar 1vs1 setting (which all of your 16 games seem to be), but with even 3 players (and more probably) it is quite fun I think. Try it again, this time with a few more players.

Agreed. The drop and first turn are even further emphasized in [strike]Adjacent Attacks[/strike] Trench Warfare for 1v1 games. It's more balanced in teams games, and particularly the "starting point" maps become very interesting with multiple players.

Try an 8-player on Feudal Epic.

[OliverFA]

Yes. 8p Feudal Epic or 8p New World are full of strategy and enjoyment.

This new feature is trully amazing. a really strategic game type. How come things like nuclear spoils can came up first than this? This one is an undoubtedly improving of the game. Well done

Just what I have been saying all those years. One word: "Strategy"

[Pirlo]

Hey OliverFA, I <3 you! XD

[paulgamelb]

This gameplay is crap for 1v1 if your opponent gets the start

So don't play 1v1 on it! Most of us already realized this, and stopped playing 2 player games.

[OliverFA]

Plus 1v1 games are boring with any setting
