When playing, due to one of the few early cards part of Nelson are resource buildings, my resources could easily be up in the 30s, this made resources moot except for the first few rounds, if even then. I found most cards that increased my resources fairly useless and that they glutted my deck.

Also, I found myself waiting often for any card that could do damage at all, and got in one situation where the other guy could not kill me, nor I kill him after 30 rounds and knowing no new cards were coming. More offensive cards than what we were given would be nice.

I know it is not gameplay but very confusing when people are speaking but not on screen, you quickly confuse them. And Alex keeps calling Diana, Alex?

Be nice to preview cards when you are building decks. Especially in the begginning, this would really help understand who to take with you. I could not find out what cards meant until I tried them in the field, and was often dissapointed with their effects when I got them.

It really is a lovely game and written so well, really impressed, thank you.

1) Well a few times half the resources were in the 30s while the others would be 8 or 9, but they routinely got into the 20s, in nearly every fight.

2) I forgot what it was called, but when you get to pick side missions, the one in the middle with dredans. I had the replicators that healed me, but they don't have any attack. He had the 2 healers, but they only attacked my health. so he could do 2 damage to my health, but I healed 4, but none of my guys had any attack.

3) That will be nice. I knew the characters beforehand and I started being confused who Charlotte was and wandering which guy was named Lucius.

4) That makes sense! It seemed strange, and I just assumed updating wasn't available yet until the main game.



I always feel like I am attacking it when I was really blown away by how sophisticated it is and how much farther from the first game it has come. I am really looking forward to the finished product.

I won side fight #2 on hard, and this happened:

So far, what I've got (sorry, gotta run to a dinner date, I'll be back later):



Playing on hard.



Redraw doesn't work, is that because I'm in the tutorial?

Deck Builder:

Very confusing layout. Can switch to multiple pages that have no cards in them. Explanations of buttons and the various abilities needed.

Redraw doesn't work, is that because I'm in the tutorial?

Mission 1:

I'm supposed to kill all enemy units. I do so easily enough. Now the AI keeps either summoning invisible units I can't attack or simply doesn't play any cards, and the game just drags on and on. Let me attack the enemy leader or something, I've already won but I have to sit through 10 more turns waiting for units I can attack, until I've killed them all. Resources were completely irrelevant in this mission.

Mission 2:

I die in round 2. Round 0: Enemy kills my unit, damages me. Round 1: I play a Mine, enemy destroys both my mines, hits me. Round 2: I play a sharpshooter, enemy kills me.

Tried again, made it to round 3 before being killed. I don't think Bloodlust should trigger when the player is damaged, it's overpowered. The fight seems to be unwinnable on hard (but easy enough on normal). On hard, you can't kill a unit in time, so it's impossible to play the wall because it costs credits. Not that I think you can make it even if you can put the wall down early.

Mission 3:

Won with 4 health left. If the enemy had taken more care of attack order and more consistently targeted the player, I would have lost. Resources were not an issue.

Side Missions:

Getting into an unwinnable game is too easy (playing on hard), there aren't enough offensive units to kill all opponent cards. Again, you should be able to attack the opponent directly instead of having to kill all units.

In general: I don't play either buildings or resource generating cards, they're not worth the deck space.



Diana's deck: Take Cover is a waste of deck space, since targeting is so random anyway.



Charlotte's Deck: Spiked Iron-Vines is the best card in any starting deck, and probably the only way to win Side missions in Hard mode.



Xavier's deck: Assault Biker is very good, especially for the cost (doesn't require credits).



Galina's deck: Bounty looks like a really bad card.



Christophe's deck: Matrick Mercenary is very good.



Graciela's deck: Recon Unit is too situational, and not good enough to cost credits.



Mario's deck: Only good for survive X turns fights.

Mmmh, I might try this again later, I'm a -complete- analphabet when comes to games such as these, I don't even know where to start, I click the cards ..a few times, then clicked end turn when I thought I had managed to pick attacks. *shakes head* I'm really that clueless

1- destroying all enemy's monster in the main mission against the Matrick with Graziela is impossible. I don't have that many creatures to kill them all, and my upgraded units weren't avaliable because I couldn't use Galina's cards.

2- first turn without any monster is a waste, the player is in disavantage without doing anything in the first turn.

3- main missions should give stars, our offensive cards are to weak, our only advantage is the wall cards.

4- resources s generation cards are a waste, resources aren't a problem, but units that cant attack or aren't walls doesn't contribute to the deck.

5- its better to have less good cards than having a lot of cards, many times I had to redraw a lot because the cards I draw werent useful. Quality > Quantity.

First: Christophe mission still say the player needs 15 materials to win.

Second: is there a way to show the resources symbol alongside their names? At first I didn't know with resources I needed for cast my cards.

Which difficulty did you play? I tested all battles on hard so it should be possible. Besides with the Matrick you don't need to kill all monsters, but reduce the opponent's HP to zero, and that's possible I think. The other choice is to resist 10 turns, which should be possible too (the mission has two variants depending on choices).



That is just the tutorial, in the game with custom decks (how it will work after mission 10 or the side missions) it's random, so depends on luck (like all those cards games).

Played on hard, choose to kill the imprisioned Matrick (its not the Galina's mission, its the next main mission, sorry if it wasnt clear). I couldn't attack the enemy hero and the only way I could achieve victory is if I killed all the enemies (there was no other way written on the mission information).

But in the side mission you cant do anything in the first turn because you don't have any resources, the only thing the player can do is pass the turn.
