Ancient Battle Arena

Post by Kaal979 »

Order of battle is oversaturated with modern war sceneries
and could generally begin to to pay attention to ancient scenarios.
And this would be easier than thought with some simple arena
combat game settled in the cool of the stormy ancient.

Really - i absolutely dont want to discredit OOBs backup strategy system
and also the interesting timings ect. but theres one absolute problem
with the general schoolbank history sceneries - theyre all falsed and invented
with at least 50% probability so ... in my opinion the best way to present
new more enjoyable games could be serious fantasy and scifi - maybe
like LOTR or .. id dont know .. StarWars(WOOKIEPOWAHR)!?
Other than that OOBs presentation and functionality is so perfect
that all we realtime movie directional shocked nonsense buyers
could start crying about all our wasted time.

P.S.: The OOB system is indeed not any gamestyle representing
much more like example given the historical invention of printing books
with all its thinkable attractions possible.

You really think something like this would be fun with the OoB engine?

Generally its also the rarity
of turn based strategy
not only the best engine.
