Tutorial 2 ouch!

Post by Marvin Pontiac »

I did tutorial 1 which was clear to me and went fine. But tutorial 2 jeez guys what a slap in the face. I thought a tutorial was supposed to give you a bit of confidence. I didn't know what to do in the second half. Was waiting for tutorial messages to come up but hardly anything. The first bit goes reasonably fine with the 2 enemy regiments. (although what am I supposed to do with the cavalry here; there are no instructions in this tutorial on how to use the messaging system. And after that?!? I just get overwhelmed. Don't understand where I'm supposed to direct my units. Am going to try again and read a lot more carefully. I'm clearly out of my depth with this game...but you could have made that second tutorial a bit easier I think. Or am I missing something?

Hi Floyd,

Thanks for the link. You knew what I was looking for: An indication that it's not just me who finds this hard [:)]
I tried again anyway and this time I read the messages more carefully and got a lot further. At least I understood this time what I was supposed to do. Still ended up loosing. Gonna try again! The game seems pretty cool. Bought it for realism and then when I get it I whine. Typical.[8D]
