Heya guys,

A couple months ago, I made a post on a strategy browser game created by my friend and me. We've made a huge update and would appreciate any feedback that you guys have!
[image loading]

The two biggest changes:
-New matchmaking system. Instead of randomly assigning an opponent, you now are presented with 4 different formations to choose from. You only can see the reputation and some characters of the formation, so you can try to pick on weaklings or risk it by battling the big guns. We think this will make the game less monotonous as well as encourage player rivalry. You'll also be less likely to be paired up with someone way out of your league (unless you're a dummy and choose to fight him). Matchmaking was definitely our biggest problem and we'd like some feedback on how the system works.
-New Refining system. Since our old system was pretty tedious, we've reduced it to three tiers instead of 10. Imbuing items also is much more expensive now, so you can choose to buy the most recent items but not necessarily get the best stats, or imbue your old items to try to get better imbue bonuses.

So, if you guys are all SC2'd out and/or want something to burn the time (almasy works on the iphone/itouch i think), you could really help us out by giving honest feedback. Our help system could use work too, so if you have any questions at all feel free to ask!

I'm still playing the old version of Almasy, so I'll definitely check this out.
I'm excited about the change in the War room... That really was tedious... =)

I just started playing. It's pretty fun. And I already beat MightyAtom (I think he might have beat me a few times too).

lol whole attacked me

and apparently i defeated him
but i did not play at all??

im assuming battles are automated when people challenge you

anyway whenever i try to challenge someone from war room i get

Not Found

Error: The requested address '/battles/fight' was not found on this server. Maybe you're trying to access something that doesn't exist, or maybe you were trying to do something you shouldn't be doing.. If you were trying to do something normal and this happened, just tell me and I'll see what I can do.

Nm i figured out what was wrong

Ohh, you don't need to sit through the whole battle; you can click the war room and start another battle, since as soon as you see the battle page the battle has already played out, sorta like mybrute. The gameplay is essentially managing your characters and making educated choices on who to attack.

If u guys turned the actual battles into a Final Fantasy Tactics kind of setup and had realtime Battles vrs other players i think you all would be Set for life..
That would take ALOT of work But Man your game has the potential

you guys have any plans on expanding the combat into a more user influenced setup?
