I do not want to start a big flame war here but I have a question that may sound dumb (And is?) that I need answered before I plunk down my money. Now I can see that this games bears a strong similarity to AACW. I want to know if it plays the same basic way and shares the same basic interface as AACW.
The reason I ask this is I had a hard time with AACW that was in part due to several factors
1. Very large map very small regions (lots of regions) that gave me the feeling of not quite knowing where I was or where I should be going. The color and period look would give me a headache after about 3 hrs. of play.
2. The interface seemed to be a bit click happy and I found the data screens did not work for me.
3. There seemed to be a long line of patch's that for me made the game harder to play and by 1,10d my ability to use the production/unit building sub systems was near total meltdown for my old brain. I was always running out of something (money,war supplies, or men). It got so bad that I could not even replace the losses for one turns worth of battles.
4. The over all effect was that it was work to play AACW rather than fun. It seems to me that in the effort to make it better with several patch's it only made it worse for me.
I could go on but the point of all this is if BoA2 works the same basic way with the same basic system i will most likely have some of the same problems. SO what I want to know is are the two games using the same kind of system? If so I think I need to save my money or wait till all the patch's are in to buy it.
I do not mean to make AACW out to be a bad game but just a game that did not work for me and I fear that I would have the same problems with BoA2 as I did with AACW so maybe someone can help me out here with a brief overall view of the two games.
thanks in advance
