[QUOTE]Originally posted by Capitaine [B]ryta, please read a bit better, alright? The "screenshots" are a couple of years old. That places them circa 2000. It is the EiA boardgame graphics that are circa 1970's. Do you get it yet? The screenshot pix are fine. The use of solider "icons" in a game like this is EXCELLENT! First, there will be a forthright way to distinguish between corps and other units. I have no doubt. Second, the representative figurine shows the uniform of the typical national soldier, thus providing a bit of an education. The info/data about the corps is also available via other means. Again, the screenshots posted on the site are of a DIFFERENT GAME; NOT EiA. Third, I like the [I]look[/I] of the map and icons in the old screenshots (circa 2000). Is that clear now? :p Not buying a game due to graphics? Have you been playing wargames long, or at all, ryta? Graphics are, probably, about at least 50% of the buying factor in board and PC wargames. Again, don't think your own indifference is the "norm" or even "rational". Graphics apparently are of little value to you. Not so to most other gamers I correspond with. I've bought many a game solely due to their graphical presentation; particularly their maps and the information they provide. EiA the "best" strategic wargame ever? LOL, surely you jest!! Again, maybe to you, but I think there are some that also are "in the race". The "3rd Reich" series -- shortly to be remade into a global game by GMT -- is probably the "best" strategic game ever. That's my opinion. But then I'm not the one "proclaiming". ryta, please try to understand that no one gamer speaks for all the rest, nor are one gamer's tastes necessarily even remotely the same as another's. Where you come up with these questions and accusations on matters of personal taste is curiously humorous! ;) [/B][/QUOTE] The only person here who needs to read a little bit better is you. If you read my post you would have noticed where I said: "but everyone has their own opinion." Did you not read my post? Second: We were discussing the graphics of the map on the SCREENSHOT not the graphics of the actual map. Third: If you buy games based solely on looks then I am sorry. If a game looks good and really sucks then why would you ever play it? I know I wouldn't. 3rd Reich is a good game, but I don't think (notice the word I, that means me, what I think) it comes close to EiA. Fourth: Those little mini soldier statues suck. Fifth: Don't be so voilent in your posts man, try to pretend you are not a little kid. Thanks.
