I'm so frustrated with this game because it's SO DAMN CLOSE to being the game I really want to play. Apparently the author is enamoured by Ender's Game's concept of the general giving vague orders to sub-commanders who then plan the strategy themselves. It's just in this game your sub-commanders are nonintelligent AI scripts so fuck your "plans."

Am I the only person who hated Ender's Game? It's such a boring story. "Special" kid alternates between playing shitty video games and beating his schoolyard tormenters to death. The last video game he plays turns out to be real. The end. It's like Dominic Deegan, but with a dystopian future where religion is outlawed, (but everyone falls to their knees and prays when the chips are down) in place of the justifiable rape. *SNORE*
