    I'm pretty sure they don't do that. Honestly, I'd prefer the game without that degree of realism.

    Indeed! I have had fun, and I did give this game a good rating. Thanks again for being friendly and active here- it's rare and refreshing to have creators participate with their player base, even though we can't all get exactly what we want ;)

    Finally beat Earthmaw on Heroic with Melwen. Holy crap, that was hard and fun. Ended up using only
    Lizards
    . (Hero Level ~100, Atk ~ 1000).

    Has anybody beat this with any melee units? I can beat it on Master with Dwarves, but if I put any Dwarves or Cavaliers on Heroic the AOE spells obliterate all my DPS guilds.

    This was the toughest and best Master->Heroic strategy change so far for me.

    Is there some kind of hidden stat for the general character where certain monsters don't attack him and simply walk right past him into the exit? I found some orcs (the green armored enemies), purple giant enemies, and golems can't be stopped by the general, which resulted in very frustrating situations since I was aiming for a perfect score and letting 1 enemy through ruined it.

    I too have hit a button that unlocked everything. I went into the "challenge" screen and meant to hit the manual but hit the funky "unlock all" button instead.

    Is there a way to re-lock it all back to where I was?? The game is now essentially unfun now that it's all unlocked.

    Could be your hero's movement is too low. Or are you using the General's ranged weapon?

    Well by default the general's movement is "very slow" right? I'm not sure how to improve that. I'm using some kind of "iron greatsword". These enemies don't even stop and attack, they just head straight for the exit. The general tries to hit them once or maybe twice, but they don't flinch or react. This only seems to happen for some boss type monsters, doesn't happen for normal enemies. I just replayed the last map, it definitely happens for that purple giant thing as well as most of the red-ish orcs wearing armor.

    You need a higher move speed to block the faster monsters. This is especially true with a greatsword, as greatswords generally slow you do (look at the item's description). A couple ways to do this:

    1) Many items give a +1 to hero move speed. If you equipped a couple such items, you'd be able to block a lot more units.

    2) I think the General's greatsword medal gives you a higher move speed, if you have the Advanced or Expert versions.

    So when you beat the big spider is that the end of the game? I noticed I cant progress any more I just have the same levels that I can replay on a harder difficulty.

    Yup and yup. If you're using a greatsword, you probably want to build more archer guilds or lvl 3+ warrior guilds, to deal with the piddly-shit monsters your general isn't fast enough to take a swipe at.

    The Expert version gives you +2 move when you have a greatsword equipped, but greatswords give you -3, which I assume means that with a greatsword equipped and the Expert medal you'll have -1 move...

    Well it's sort of the end, for now at least (they are going to add more levels, 10 new ones in total). But the sort of point of the game is to clear all the levels on as high a difficulty as you can, it's very grindy.

    No :( You'll have to start again I think, that's why they pulled the game so quickly when they realised the problem.

    Yes, it has been for a few days. There was a problem with the most recent update, which could lead to people losing their saved games, so the game was pulled from the App Store to avoid any more people downloading the broken update.
    I assume it will be back soon, with a fixed version of the update.

    Shows the 1.1 update is available in the AppStore. When I go to download I'm prompted with "The item you tried to buy is no longer available." :confused:


    EDIT: Update is now live and downloading. :D

    I’m kinda enjoying this, just nowhere near as much as I expected to. The game it’s self it fun there’s just a whole bunch of odd UI / quality of life decisions made that really detract from the enjoyment of playing:

    - No multitasking. Considering how quickly my iPad sleeps having to see the developer screen followed by the menu every time is just annoying.
    - Tutorial overlay and zoom at the start of every level. Utter unnecessary and strange given some of the useful information that is hidden from you.
    - No way to restart a level. This is what you have to do to restart: Menu > Abandon > Lose Screen > Map Screen > Difficulty Select > Story Screen. Six steps! It’s absurd, there should simply be a restart level option on the menu, this is doubly frustrating considering the next problem.
    - No indication where the enemies will appear from or where they will go. For instance on the level with the zig-zag paths up the cliffs there is no indication that flyers will come through the centre or that enemies on the left hand path count as reaching your gate. Admittedly this is only a problem on the first couple of tries at a level but why should it be a case of trial and error? Why not just give me that information in the first place.
    - University (or library) information being locked. The first time I fought the banshees they just streamed past all my defences so I thought I’d check the information on them to work out how to defeat them but the information was locked. Why on earth is it locked, what possible purpose is there in having the information if it not available when you need it?
    - Not being able the level your hero from the Stronghold. Again just more pointless busywork.
    - Two times speed the only option. Simply not fast enough, especially for the dull dull waves of things like bats that come very slowly and give so little gold that you can’t even build / upgrade anything while you’re waiting.

    It’s extra frustrating that none of these things bar the last are anything to do with the core game play which I think is solid.

    What happened?

    I was playing 1.0.1 and all of a sudden I had tons of money and 2000 skill points. Is this the 'extras' menu bug people were talking about?

    Am I screwed now? I had a level 92 Melwyn and tons of loot

    Hi johnny. Just a couple things:

    1) What do you mean about leveling your hero at the stronghold? The stronghold is where you store your extra loot.

    2) After you've played the game a bit, the Great Library gets a 4x speed that you can buy. Yes, it would be simpler if you just started with it.
