uh

2019-09-08 10:38:46 UTC  

i remember age of wonders 1

2019-09-08 10:38:53 UTC  

from back in the day

2019-09-08 10:38:59 UTC  

Is best

2019-09-08 10:39:00 UTC  

might check it out now

2019-09-08 10:39:17 UTC  

then i didnt know about 4X games at all and was expecting just a HoMM

2019-09-08 10:39:37 UTC  

and so didnt like it (was young)

2019-09-08 10:40:04 UTC  

None of that wizard tower bullshit from aow2.
Compared to HoMM, aow1 is a lot more warlords-esque.

2019-09-08 10:40:50 UTC  

Fewer units, quality over quantity.
Heroes that actually matter, level up and get great abilities.

2019-09-08 10:41:04 UTC  

yeah yeah

2019-09-08 10:41:13 UTC  

uh disciples worked like that too

2019-09-08 10:41:35 UTC  

disciples 2 was interesting mostly with the setting being edgy af

2019-09-08 10:41:46 UTC  

goth HoMM

2019-09-08 10:42:43 UTC  

im only now growing somewhat comfortable with this low quantity approach haha

2019-09-08 10:42:49 UTC  

I never played disciples 2, it looks very HOMM

2019-09-08 10:42:50 UTC  

i used to hate it in disciples tbh

2019-09-08 10:43:52 UTC  

so disciples plays like HOMM a lot but it does have different mechanics

2019-09-08 10:43:52 UTC  

Probably a white guy

2019-09-08 10:44:02 UTC  

its HOMM on the overworld

2019-09-08 10:44:09 UTC  

Or a (((white))) guy

2019-09-08 10:44:12 UTC  

with the added mechanic of spreading your territory

2019-09-08 10:44:16 UTC  

and combat is shite

2019-09-08 10:44:16 UTC  

😄

2019-09-08 10:44:21 UTC  

Lol

2019-09-08 10:44:31 UTC  

The combat in aow1 is great

2019-09-08 10:44:53 UTC  

i think it was too tactical for me when i first played it coz was young 😛

2019-09-08 10:45:00 UTC  

The combat map is hex grid, but *much* bigger.

2019-09-08 10:45:03 UTC  

Yeah

2019-09-08 10:45:06 UTC  

ye

2019-09-08 10:45:15 UTC  

like a proper battlefield ahah

2019-09-08 10:45:18 UTC  

i recall

2019-09-08 10:45:20 UTC  

i was blown away

2019-09-08 10:46:12 UTC  

ye in disciples you have two armies stood opposite of each other performing attack move or defense move

2019-09-08 10:46:15 UTC

2019-09-08 10:46:35 UTC  

so you have different classes and 6 slots, your leader cant hire all 6 slots at first, needs to level up

2019-09-08 10:46:36 UTC  

its shite

2019-09-08 10:46:44 UTC  

Sounds it

2019-09-08 10:46:55 UTC  

Seems very arcade-y

2019-09-08 10:47:22 UTC
