Wounded troops

I find that wounded troops are great for this, although I guess it is more of an all out gamble, as should you fail you loose. You can suicide a chain of wounded troops (0 levels work too) into their leader. They all hurt him a little before dying. And they have to die to free the spot, which normal...

One small problem

The problem with delay leveling until the players turn is that the unit could be killed before the next turn and not gain xp for defending.

6p Smallolof, single tile fix

Whilst observing a 6p smallolof game Lorien LoD noticed that the tile at 19.14 was still a cave tile while all the others in the same positions were savannah grass.

I have attached a fixed map as I don't know if it has been fixed in 1.0.2 yet.

In afterthough

This should probably be in the MP section, if anyone with the power to do so cares to move it?

Allied backstab

This came up in one of the MP games the other day, so I decided to test it and you do not get the backstab bonus if an ally controls the opposite side. I think due to the nature of the backstab ability you should get the backstab bonus. I do not mind leadership not applying as your ally's troops are...

I suppose someone should smarten them up on the terminology, such as factions vs races?

The quick fix could be..

How about making the command prompt available through the pulldown menu? This way even noobs from any country could easily access it. I think it's a viable solution until we get GUI for "kick player" "ban player" "control <side> player" "control <side> observer&quo...

I think the layout needs some work

Unfortunately the popup menu blocks the view of your cards, it came on me so fast I didn't know what I had a few times. This depends on where the button starts. If you can be bothered implmenting it I would like to see a check option. Other than that, nice idea. I will be playing this a bit between ...
