DoW: Dark Crusade
20 November 2006 20:45Things I've noticed about the Eldar
Howling Banshees - They now serve a purpose other than improving enemy morale by falling over at them, and so are actually worth buying.
Turrets - They no longer seem to be made of tissue paper, and so it's not so bad that there's now a limit on how man you can have.
Build order - I'm not entirely sure what's changed, but it now seems a lot less fiddly to get the early stages of building your base done.
There's probably more, but I keep winning before I get to try the higher end stuff.
Which brings me to other stuff:
Things I've noticed in general
Is it just me, or have they tidied up the learning curve on the AI in Skirmishes? Standard seems to be a lot less of a challenge than it used to be... I used to be able to beat it on standard most of the time with Space Marines or Chaos, and just over half the time with others* , but now I seem to be beating it all the time on standard even with Eldar. I'm going to bump it up to Hard for future skirmishes, I think.
(* - I was improving, but stopped playing when UFO: Aftershock ate my life instead, so was expecting to have lapsed again)
