also back + up doesn't do jump for me, only PURE up.

I am also having problems with fencing in this version. Manual doesn't say much. Anyone can explain how it workes here? (no prob on PC)

So I've been looking around and can't find my answer. In the iPad forum for this they talk about a bombardment mini game. I've never seen that, i just get, Yay I won or get thrown in jail. Is this just me? Also, when I bombard a city my money doesn't go up, I take the city, fight the captain of the guard choose a new nation to control it, but I don't see my money go up. Anyone else have this?

Why would you need to go into an enemy port, they're your enemy, destroy them.
But really, you could always bombard them and change them into a friendly port or I think you have to do things for them, take out their enemies and they'll eventually like you again.

Yeah, except for one issue:
Sometimes the music stops playing and the sound effects go all crazy. Whenever this happens the game will always crash after a couple of minutes. But since I already know this I just save and restart the game.

Other than that it works fine, but I don't have an iPad, so I can't really compare.

Fencing is easy, Right thumb gestures for defense, left thumb gestures to attack.

Picked this up last night. I'm really impressed with the translation to iphone, it plays really well. The controls are excellent.

Wrote a review for a game site I write for sometimes: http://www.4colorrebellion.com/archi...on-the-iphone/

Might help some people decide.
