At first I was skeptical if I would enjoy some of the aesthetic directions of the game, such as the half displayed soldiers; i.e. only their upper portion of body and head displayed, but the style has grown on me.
I was also not sure about the harsh permadeath/no regeneration mechanics on the soldiers, but I’ve grown to live with it, and it’s made a lot of the battles thrilling.
However, the one thing that really irks me to this point, is the lack of any kind of deployment phase. It’s one thing to be ambushed, and not be able to select how your soldiers will be layed out before battle, but to never be able to influence this in any kind of capacity; be it a pre-battle zone of deployment, or some kind of formations tab in the interfaces is something Battle Brothers could use work on.
The game is still in development, so hopefully this idea is something that could make it in, and otherwise it’s an enjoyable game, so keep up the good work :)
