I swear when I played this when I was younger the troops had some basic AI and I didn't have to make them attack every single unit and building. still fun to kill time. I also wish I could increase the amount of units I don't remember that being so limited either.
I have no idea if I love or hate this game. If you wanna have a better time I suggest investing time in watching videos to learn the mechanics of this game or if you love the pain go into it totally blind and figure thing out for yourself!
