Master of Magic

As a huge MOM fan, I want to like it.

So I tried to hold off on leaving a review to see if they fix "the little things". I gave them my recommendations to help make this more like the original Master Of Magic but they didn't take it to heart. Here are my gripes: 1) In the original MOM, if a town increased in population, if a building was complete, you would get a pop up notification on screen. On New MOM, there is no pop up notification, and as far as when a building is complete, it appears in the bottom right corner as a footnote. This makes it easy to miss so you just continue turns while your town is making housing. 2) When a unit is built in a town, it automatically guards, so if a town builds a unit and, going back to #1, you miss the little footnote in the corner that the unit is done, you miss turns when you could have been giving the unit orders. 3) Lets say designate a unit to move to the north west from the south, and another unit to the northeast from the south, and the units manage to intercept each other, OK, now one of the units touches the other, it will ignore where you were sending it and instead automatically join the unit it merged with and start following that unit. 4) With as incredible as Caster Of Magic is, I am shocked that they didn't make New MOM more like Caster. Instead they made it LESS like the original MOM.
