    i agree.

    i'm pretty sure i'll take the time to desensitize myself to everything that's going on, but even the tutorial is a series of WTF's.

    i've played scores of RTS games over the years on many platforms and this is definitely unique. i'm sure after a little bit of play time, everything will make sense, but as a noob, this game is intimidating.

    i'm looking forward to reading those support pages after i get myself a little experience. lots of positive feedback, so i'm pretty excited.

    thanks!

    It is intimidating but if you really spend some time learning the INS and out. The gameplay is very rewarding :). PM me or ask questions here and I'll try my best to answer them

    Have fun man, it's definitely going to be worth it learning the game. Everyone knows there's a steep learning curve...John, the admins, and clearly users on TA all agree, but the payoff for sticking with it is the best rts on the iOS.

    I'll be happy to answer questions as well.

    This game looks like a strangely action-packed day under the microscopes back in biology class.
    Anyway, the buzz on this is crazy. I guess I'm going to have to grab ANOTHER freebie. (Life is so hard...)

    Thanks for the comparison pictures. The clarity in good RD graphics is amazing.

    thanks!

    your enthusiasm is encouraging. i've been playing for a little bit and this game definitely is a little different than the traditional RTS but once you get past the appearance (which, although different, is very cool), it plays very comfortably.

    i'm really excited this went free. i bookmarked the sig threads and i'll definitely check them out soon.

    thanks again!

    I'm really grateful for the free game and it looks awesome but I can't get very far because it keeps crashing on my iphone 4. Twice now I've spent about 10 minutes building my army to full strength on the 2nd level ( helping hand ) only to have the game completely crash on me. Anyone else having crash problems?

    Reading through reviews I can see a lot of ppl having crash problems. This might be bc of 4.1 /4.2 update. Maybe if episode 3 comes out soon it'll address these crashes
