Pause the combat? :blink:

Yes, as in pause the game, enter commands to your troops, unpause. The same kind of thing that Darklands did back in the early 1990s, and has been done by many RPGs, strategy titles and sims since then, including the BG, Fallout, and KotoR2 series.

Isnt it consider as cheating?

Why? The developers themselves issued the hotkey combination because they were getting massive complaints that strategy gamers found the pace too furious. So basically you have two different games in one: one for arcaders, another for strategy players. That doesn't sound like a cheat.

I have set the hotkey for every spell and I can cast them enought quickly,there is no need to pause the game...

Good for you. Have a cookie. k:

Well yes but it is great feeling when you learn to do the strategy in "arcade" mode... :whistle:
Btw I know what is pause mode,but I never heard that there is one for Sacrifice(and I was VERY interested in this game when I get it).

THE BEST SPELL EVER IS.......... (Drumroll)

Obviously, Raise Dead.
I mean, come on, who wants to waste all that time with the summoning and the soul collecting? It is a fast and cheaply effective way to maintain the perfect army.

For you, certainly, but for myself I honestly don't see why. Being able to respond with arcade-like dexterity isn't something that makes me think I've accomplished anything game-specific: an arcade is an arcade is an arcade. :whistle: There's challenge enough in developing alternative strategies in each new Sacrifice game as I take a different path, siding with one god or another. And curiously, much of the playing community was of similar mind--hence, the issue of releasing the hotkey combination after so many players complained in Shiny's forums.

I loved the james creatures which spit 3 rocks at once. When you had about 6 of those nothing can come close

I personally loved the Warmongers, with their chainguns. If you had 4 or five, the enemy stood no change just because of the sheer weight of the bullets thrown at them.

Yeah.Except of fact that even lighting bolt can kill them.They are VERY fragile.
My most favorite units(dont count final ones,becouse I like them all)eadeye,Bombard,Mutant/abominition,Styx,Sylphs and Yeti...

I was not too keen on Persephone or Stratos, but my brother loves Stratos. I think both of them have too weak of a units.

The Stratos has the most difficult missions and his unit are VERY fragile and you need think how to use them.But Yeti and Silverback are thanks to abilty freeze enemies on attack genial(Silverback is my favorite final creature)
I think persephone is one of the most easiest and most powerful gods... :blink:

[Yobor]

The absolute easiest is James. He is like the easy mode for the game. While Stratos is like Hard mode. Charnel is in the middle.
