Speak for yourself. I enjoy WOTN very much even bugged as it is.

I am very dissapointed in WOTN it could have been so much more....
With this I agree, the battles are not challanging enough considering you have spells, amulet, valkiries, equipment, and random bonuses vs creeps that no bonuses and mediocre AI.

You are correct, it could be a bit more challenging. Hmm, maybe if you imposed some sort of restriction on your play style, like not using Rune Mages and/or winning fights without ever having losses, that might spice it up? Maybe trying to finish the game in the smallest amount of game time?

I played AP, CW with 20-round restriction (if any battle gets to round 20 I delete my save game and consider the game lost. This makes some exploitable battles unwinnable in a too early stage.)

Units that I play without are all no-retals, droids, ghosts,inquisitors, green imps, all lvl 5 units, all lvl 4 units that are overpowered (demonologist for example i think was the most ovp of all lvl 4s in AP, ok, Deatk Knight is ovp, but he's at least melee and is not summoner)

Amongst spells that I ban from my game are sacrifice, time back, ressurection, phoenix, phantom. There are others too but don't come to mind right now.

Gold being too much on AP/CW, I played with "lvl up-tax". That means, on leveling I was forced to waste an amount of gold (buying some horde unit and then dismissing it) that was equal to (hero lvl -1) *1000.

I had found playing AP/CW much more entertaining for me. After I finish my first playthrough on WN, where I play using everything available to rape the game, I'm gonna play by these rules.

How the hell did this work for a no loss?

you literally are killing all your chances for a no loss (no resu or w/e by spells or unit abilities)


and there are like 4 BOsses which will give u incredible losses

Most likely, he wasn't. He considers the concept stupid and thinks tough battles should have cassualties.

the first four island are very repetettive

the rest is ok

You have to repeat every steap in first four islands or get gooD RNG

to get the skills/runes/spells u need to kill the first 3 bosses and later on the spider

it's just SICK

I'd have to agree. None of the KB games so far have been that restrictive. It feels like 1C is rebooting the series, turning KB into a "Who's best?" race, forcing the players through bottlenecks at some points. Much of the creativity is gone. Nothing subbed the ability of devising your own strategy to win the game that KBAP presented. It is very satisfying to win the game your own way - and to hell with the score...

Still, I am not giving up yet. Gotta see it through once, and then I will wait for the patches. Besides, I have XCOM waiting for me too... Those damn aliens are tormenting my beautiful planet again...
