just noticed they change it in series 10 maybe 8,9? lucasfilm must have wanted a fee. literally, i cannot see why they would have took it out otherwise.

That is quite incredible considering our 'by chance' recent interest and that the game is like 30 or so years old. : )
great find Hypie.

got really good at catapult, there are little lines a few pixels wide that mark where to fire the catapult
it's too hard to battle unless the catapult has done a good job knocking down the castle wall

yeah the only way to win at the game with any chance is to know when to click the mouse on those little lines fings
boulders only i find.
unless there are hundreds in the castle, then use disease after the second boulder. then retreat if you like .
,if you have knights get the wall all the way down and charge. knights are needed to win too.

I forget the name of the home castles but the castle by bristol is the easiest, the one by Sherwood the hardest, perhaps, as you are surrounded ?
get a knight in army as soon as pos. : )

1 knight per 10 soldiers best to avoid wales as it's nearly worthless attack territories with high value wait for enemy army to be far from home before attacking, then they can't return to defend their castle
you can get safe passage through saxon territory sometimes always keep at least 1 troop in your castle
to win from the north, fight your way south down to gloucester(possible to take safe passage through the saxon castle), then go on to attack cornwall, by the time you get there cornwall should have plenty of territory which will then become yours
when in the north it all depends on getting the highest value territories possible so check the value of each territory and always plot a route through the valuable spots on the map.

I believe almost all my wins have been by aiming to defeat cornwall.
defender of the elite
they should update the game with the ability to enforce GM crops, brain washing music and fluoridated water, drugs with side effects , hidden chemicals in foods....like a real modern life defender of the crown game

its better on the second viewing too i feel. hows bout you hypie? did you like it more better the second time?
I did , but i really think it needs a new edit though. so many face palm moments for me. but the bits in between are fantastic..I was really entertained for a fair amount , its just those face palm moments.. it could have been so much better.

yes i did enjoy it more this time round, i did notice how shit bb8 sounded cos of our discussion, he just sounded like the most simple patch you can make on a synth. it didnt over bother me but it stood out in the sound mix as well, too prominent. actually thinking about it there was a distinct lack of cool sound effects in the entire movie.

bb8 should be redone by Mr Burtt. but its too late.
i cant remember them all but the opening shot was poor, c3p0s entrance made him look more annoying than jar jar which is certainly not right. even harrison is holding back allot of pain.. but he just about stayed to talk to leia. He is not programmed to be annoying, he was only like that in empire because the falcon cockpit is so small getting in the way and in their face. But this was on a huge landing platform and he appeared from nowhere, it completely messed up the flow of the movie and insulted a main character.
lots of others, there are things that cant be changed but i bet a fan edit in the future will make it better.

i think my biggest problem was the cgi characters, like Maz Katana, everything round her was physical, and the voice seemed wrong, actress was miscast i think, character design was very pedestrian and she just stuck out like a sore thumb cos she was purely cgi, also tie fighter pilots arent very good agains complete novices

she was meant to be the yoda character and yeah a bit too cgi and too yoda like.
your right i forgot about the red arm aspect. it was like the worst thing i could imagine. I love 3po . he is very proper, and he would not do that on a landing platform. How the hell did they decide to leave that in?
There are allot of reviews that go into all the mistakes.
I love the fact the lead charecter was a girl . I did not really care at all until i saw reviews. as it explained many of the daft things that happened.
The fact she could fix the falcon and knew more than Han and used a lightsabre without lukes training to pretty much defeat a sith thing.that was all a bit weak really.
it was weird too when they got out the falcon she had just explained the internal workings to Han, as Han seemed to forget allot in his ship in old age ...outside he then patronises this genius mechanic fighting machine telekinesis wizard that she probably needs to learn how to point and shoot a blaster, as it is quite complected. face palm.
i liked 75 percent of it. its just it needed more people around that table to point these things out.
plinkett shall rise again

good summation i agree with what you said, i enjoyed about 80% of it so overall i wasnt disappointed, i liked Rey quite a bit she wasnt irritating, I cant wait to see Luke in the next one, at the end i realise how much i missed him, he has such an expressive face

at the end i was saying to myself, please don't let luke say anything, then they didnt, which made the scene cooler, because the actor is obviously old and a bit too geeky and weak irl
if he'd opened his mouth he would have said something shit

didnt really see a feminist agenda in the film so much as all Rey's skills were script mechanism, 'deux ex machina' to get the characters out of situations the writers had put them in, written themselves into a corner, so the easiest solution/lazy writing is to make her an all powerful character
