Battle Brothers

Want to feel like my purchases of DLC of Base Game wasn't really a waste so I've been playing but it's not a very fun game and pretty minimum in the strategy department. It's one of those "Strategy" types where there's one clear cookie cutter way for dealing with opponents that also is pretty much the only way that'll work. ... That not strategy, that's one solution (& all Others will devastatingly fail, for the most part) & It's "Difficulty" Is just making you miss 90% of the time and them hitting 99% of the time. I'd point anyone that likes this to and Mount and Blade honestly. This feels like a bad rip of those.

The game is a turn based game, where you are a mercenary company. It's easy to learn the basics, but hard to master. Unless you plan on seriously devoting a lot of time and effort, into learning nuances of the fight mechanics and EVEN THEN, you ARE going to lose characters you have spent time and money growing. One of the game creators "tips" is you ARE going to have characters die. This isn't a fantasy game with a resurrection or some such. Once they die, they die and are gone. So...you just lost a 7th level mercenary or two, in a tough fight, that you won, but they can get a lucky hit in and kill him. Now, you are replacing that fighter with a level 1 or 2, fighter. Now, you are trying to do the same fights, only with a clear weak point, in your line....which will lead to more deaths, a new replacement and on and on. Save your money and just go smash your face into a tree in your yard, if you enjoy pain.

Game can't have 5 stars because so simple things like quicksave(load), repair button in armory, and auto-change in game speed settings is absent! It's annoing very much!!! So, game is like UFO, if you want to watch 2-3 times misses with 70%hit chance so you can try to play.))) If in game will add so simple things like quicksave(load) and repair button in armory I give a 4 STARS, but without only 3, because always need to go menu and lose many time. P.S. I reccomend play it for 3 weeks without dlc, if you like it then you mayne want to buy some dlc.

Night missions have the map colors darkened and washed out. Including healthbars and status icons! I have to strain my eyes just to be able to see if my char has any armor left. Maybe it is playable on a pro-graphical-designer monitor, but I will never know...

Like the game. Do not like the plentiful, pointless cut scenes that mean nothing, lead to nothing, and usually read like they were written by a group of horny 13 year olds. Would be nice to be able to turn them off.
