Looking at the review it doesnt have much more new cool info exept for screens and the above.The units still have attack, defense and move values but the concept of firepower is gone now. Units have hit points, 3 at the basic level, 4 as veterans and 5 as elites.AlexComment

Regular is veterancy level? (Regular/Veteran/Elite/Gr.LeaderOriginally posted by HalfLotus
The screenshot "simple menus" has:
regular (3/3) pikeman 1.3.1/1
I gather 1.3.1 is adm. And one of the first 3's is hitpoints. Whats that other mess?
3/3 is health
1.3.1/1 (Attack.Defense.MovePoints/MovePointsRemaining)
Sound close?Comment

My stream-of-consciousness thoughts on various screens:
"Armies at the gates" http://pcmedia.ign.com/media/preview...e/aciv3025.jpg
Nice, another army shot. Hey, anyone else notice that it is 1940 AD and the army consists of Legions!? Huh? Most of the shots contain Cavalry as the strongest unit... is this some ssssslllllooooowwww tech research or what?

To answer someone's question, that "3/3" after "Wake Regular" is most likely Hit Points Remaining/Total Hit Points. Just guessing.

VERY cool - finish what you're doing and then build whatever is needed for growth. Yummy!

Notice one of the captured units is a barbarian? Cool! And unit upgrades can be performed right from the advisor screen. More coolness! As long as we have a larger world map in this pic, those continents look outstanding.

Alright - I'm ready for the 31st. BRING IT ON!

That must be to balance the taking out of firepower stats in Civ2. Also, possible attack and defense strengths were similarly scaled in SMAC between early and late-game unitsOriginally posted by Imran Siddiqui
Panzer's stats: 16/8/3... so it seems modern units are MUCH more powerful than ancient ones.Comment

I wonder what the most powerful ground unit will be? Panzer?AlexComment

I think that there is a pretty good amount of new info, however it's dealing more with game specifics that we were unsure of, rather then broader game info we already knew.Originally posted by Alex 14

Take a look at what the science advisor is saying:
"The steam engine and other machines are changing our society dramatically. Our scientists and entrepreneurs want industrialization to increase our production"
Nice!Comment

Mucher better than Civ 2.AlexComment

For those of you saying that the F-15 will never be obsolete, well heres the proof.
Its says that the F-15 replaces the basic Jet Fighter. Which meanst that stealth bomberes/fighters will replace the F-15"Everything for the State, nothing against the State, nothing outside the State" - Benito MussoliniComment

I doubt cs units can be replaced...AlexComment

DOn't think so. The Modern Armor replaces the Panzer.I wonder what the most powerful ground unit will be? Panzer?"Everything for the State, nothing against the State, nothing outside the State" - Benito MussoliniComment

Nice catch on the barbarians. Does this mean that barbarian encampments will grow and build terrain improvements? Exciting possibility.
PS-I'm watching JPL live and the Mars Odyssey is in orbit and okay.
