I'm not much of an RTS fan either, I suck at strategy games.

Johnny, I hate RTS [img]smile.gif[/img] for one thing, it is so fast and furious you never really get to admire the art work or the scenery. Another reason is that they really arent RTS games, they are more RTCF games, thats Real Time Cluster F**** Strategy games are turn based, everyone knows that

Damn. I had just decided not to blow any money on a new graphics card to go with my new mobo, CPU and RAM, and now this. Sigh. Bankruptcy, here I come

What does RTS stand for? [img]graemlins/1ponder.gif[/img] Real Time Somethingorother? Does that mean it's a twitch game?

It is supposed to mean strategy but is not really. It is a twitch game, a lot of frantic clikfests to be the first to unit rush your opponent. Total and complete waste of beautiful graphics if ya ask me

Looks very nice indeed. Cause women are hotter TL? I completely disagree! [img]tongue.gif[/img]

MagiK, here´s the description from the developer:

Originally stated by Volker Wertich:
In other RTS games you first click on your own unit. Then you select an action or a spell with a second click. After that you try to find a certain foe - which is often very hard and fuzzy during a battle with lots of units - and then you click on the enemy unit to start the action/the spell. If you miss the unit, you need to restart the whole procedure. Click'n'Fight allows you to cast a spell or start an action with just 2 mouse clicks: first you select the enemy (or even one of your own units, if you, for example, want to cast a healing spell) - this opens a list of all possible spells and actions at the bottom of each of your character portraits. A second click on one of those actions (or some more clicks - if you want more than one of your heroes to attack the enemy) - and voilà - the action starts. Very fast, very precise, very deadly.

Recognise the name Volker Wertich? It´s Settlers all over again.

Awesome Graphics, but unless it's RPG I'm going to be disappointed. I LOVED Morrowind, and I've been patiently waiting for the next installment, with better graphics and gameplay. I've already got too darn many RTS games, either they're too easy or the computer cheats (which really steams my jeans). I've been playing Empire Earth, the computer cheats like a dog on that game and it's still a breeze to spank one on one.
