Tried After I Played War Tortoise
Allow me to preface this review with a statement on how awesome it is.
*Ahem*
This game is super-awesome. It is certainly one of the best mobile games Ive played. It is challenging, and Ill admit that occasionally I will fly into an expletive laced rage after failing a level or losing an outpost (again), but that just ultimately makes the victory even more satisfying. The update has made it even better and has expanded the gameplay, so you should definitely give it a try.
Suggestions/Bugs for the developers:
The dwarf engineers "Fortify" ability no longer gives the usual animation in which the wall is flaming(ish). I think the ability is still working, though.
I really like the ability to summon heroes in battles now! However, I think it would be better if you could better tell them how to behave? For example, maybe I want to take advantage of my dwarfs "Last Resort" skill and have him sit behind the wall, have another baby sit the wall/bannermen. Perhaps you could achieve this by being able to tell your heroes to behave like another unit? Also, unit discount runes dont decrease the cost of summoning heroes. That may or may not be intentional on your part, but figured Id let you know just in case.
Also, it seems that the human paladins "Retribution" doesnt work as well as before, i.e. it doesnt knockback enemies all the time, but sometimes it does? That may be because Im playing in the New Game+ mode, but Im not sure.
Would be nice if you had the option of having your units of a type *not* go after the same enemy. I.e. not having 5 dwarf miners attack one goblin rocketeer. If you could have the option to have units of a type "divide and conquer" or "swarm" (their current strategy), that would be great.
There should be more in depth explanations of what certain terms mean (perhaps another feature for the scribe?).
Also, I think it would be a good idea if when you are viewing the details of a location and the map and you press the "x" in the top right, it doesnt exit you from the map, just the details, aka the equivalent of what the "back" button does.
