Bay 12 Games Forum

Quote

almost ALL of this game's problems come from the fact that it's a tablet game

I am starting to think anytime a game title pops up and mentions that it is also on tablets... that you should reconsider.

Unless you're going to buy it for your tablet that is.

Ill be home in 25 minutes. I'm up for a game then

I've made a nation, although I kind of forgot about the communist thing. How do I turn my free market in something a bit less capitalist-like?

Maybe we could get a seven kingdoms 2 (I don't have one) game rolling on Bay12 sometime? Could be tons of fun, even though I'm pretty poor at playing as a human. Yes, there are monsters (frythans) in this game that could enslave human towns as well. Quite a different game it became when playing as a frythan race.

R.U.S.E. sounds like it might be fun. Have you played the game yourself? Is the multiplayer scene still alive? Could you temporarily disguise your own troops as his own?

@Stworca
I've really enjoyed both games, but I don't recall if it was possible to infiltrate another family. The bribery and blackmailing parts of the game were fun though

I've suddenly gotten a craving for a strategy game that allows me to win, or at least, severely smoothen a victory through subterfuge. The only game that I know off that does this really well is Seven Kingdoms 2.
 Seven Kingdoms 2 allowed you to train spies and have them take on the color of any team. You could have them listen to AI orders or control them yourself. A player could store your spy in a barrack, where the spy could bribe other soldiers which made them rather weak spies but yours nonetheless, or the spy could even bribe the general who in return could capture an entire fort (and maybe the town too, can't remember). Your spy could also get promoted by the enemy if say...the enemy king got assassinated and your spy is a high-level combatant and leader. This immediately had you take control over the enemy player.

Now I'm searching for more games that give you those kind of options, preferably modern'ish. Can anyone recommend me something like this?

Ill be gone for a week with barely if any contact with the outside world, so I'm giving a no as well :p
