Total Strength

Yeah and thanks. But I still think it being automated would be easier and it would have benefits like doing the commander bonus for you. :) You would have to do this every time you make troops for it to help you with dividing your troops. Now do any of you think this will be inducted into the game?

What do you mean? You said it might be pt into the game but then you said you wouldnt like it. Im confused.

It would help understand what combinations of units are better and help people's armys last longer and help people make choices like who should I attack and should I attack at all and even what units should be in my army. And how would it destroy the human prospect? With this feature the game would still be very human. Answer this in total strength thread.

I can't actually ''answer'' it for you as this is a discussion and not a question. We both have diferent opinions about this and thats exactly what a discussion is for ;-)

But I personally think it will only take out a little more of the human aspect of the game. But once again, thats my personal aspect.
But you did made a point. It might help people to understand what troop combinations are better etc.. Especially the newer players here that jump into a complicated game that will take a while to know all the in's and out's. And even the most experienced players that have been here from the beginning don't even know all the answers...

And that draws me back to my personal opinion.. The human aspect. Not knowing everything about this game is actually something that keeps me playing. I'm a curious guy and I always try to find out things that give a entire new dimention to the game.
For example.. peace of camp... The first time I got in touch with that rule I was.. uhhm... stunned. Some people even petitioned it because they also didn't know what the hell was happening.

To make this long story short..

I don't like alot of automated tools ingame in any way. But some tools might help the newer members to get to know the game a little better without running around with questions how things actually work.

yeah and you cant calculate exactly your power because terrain bonus are unknown, you can just guess if you will have a positive or a negative bonus
