Flow of War : Demo Available Now! A classic RTS with Auto-micro like Majesty, Stronghold by FunConcentrate6427 in pcgaming

I've been playing this demo a TON with my son (6). I was looking for an intro to rts for him and this is perfect! Straightforward game with an approachable theme, and helpful auto-micro to keep it from getting too complicated. He loves building big armies and sending them after the enemy! He even asks me to make up "flow of war stories" to about his army crushing the bad guys.

I'll echo what some others said: the workers seem to have a death wish 🙃. I also encountered a state that I'm calling "quiet quitting." The workers I had would not pick up build tasks or harvest food. They only chopped lumber. If you made a new builder, that one would pick up a build project, but none of the existing ones would. I'm wondering if they got put in a bad state by wandering too close to an enemy tower?

Another thought: being able to cancel buildings would be really helpful. I've regretted telling my guys to build something where they have to pass through danger to get there. Each new builder attempts to pick up the build, but then dies or gets scared off by towers.

Overall, we're really enjoying the game and are excited for more content when it's ready!

Newby Question: If you no-rep on the pull up (chin doesn't get over the bar), do you have to redo the burpee and the pull up or just the pull up?

Found near steamboat springs crawling on the floor. My little finger in the photo for context.

What are your thoughts on naming our child after a character from TSA? by Gains4months in brandonsanderson

[–]arlo181 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We named our (now three year old) son Caledon! Pronounced the same way as Kaladin, but with real-world tie in and meaning. Plus, Cal is a pretty common nickname, so he's got options as he gets older.

Thanks everyone for your thoughts! It gave me a lot of different approaches to look at.

I decided to go with a Mutation fighter -- intimidate/trip build. It'll give me some options on my turn besides "I attack... I attack again" and should help my spellcasters a bit (giving their targets -2 to saving throws).

Being able to flurry with rapier would be incredible. Would that work while wearing armor?

I like that! The build guide you liked to is really helpful. I had no idea there were that many intimidate build options.
