1) When a Necromancer summons a bunch of Skeletons and its their turn to move, their turn lasts forever and ever and ever which really slows things down. Maybe there could be a "fast forward" or "skip" button somewhere to speed things along.

Good idea, will consider that if we do an update.

2) What exactly is the criteria for being able to charge tackle? Right now, it seems kind of random, and I know it's not.

Just be in a straight line to an enemy, with no obstacles in the way (friendlies and downed enemies are fine), and at least 2 spaces between (so 3 squares away).

Nice game, I really enjoyed playing it, and for the moment totally got my vote at the Sports Compo.

Just a little comment: last time I played while facing the Necromancer at the zombies goal zone he summoned some skeletons, so I used an artifact that looks like a kind of spinal cord, I had used it before so I knew that it will cause a lot of damage in a large area, but when I cast the spell the game just remove the interface elements, and while I was able to move around the map I couldn't do no more.

Anyway, awesome game!

Great game, but it's really hard to win. All my guys generally die about one or two rooms in unless I can get some good items early on. The graphics and sound/music are superb. This has a good chance the compo, and I hope you continue to develop it in the future. Good stuff

Awesome game.  Please tell me that you guys will continue development.  PVP would be pretty amazing in this game.

Congrats for winning!

Super fun.  I won on easy mode by using a bomb to blow a hole into the Necro room, and rushed my fast guy in to the end zone.  I'm glad I played this tonight instead of X-Com.

Thank you eigenbom

A pro tactic

I'm glad I played this tonight instead of X-Com.

High praise!

I did it again, but this time I had to...  because I had set the entire level on fire    Managed to get the necromancer and his entire army destroyed by fire.
Normal+ is probably my favorite so far.  Hard enjoys my pain.

Fantastic artwork. This is just a reminder for myself to play tomorrow, it looks fantastic.

I don't have Java installed (bloody updater drives me nuts, also the past security risks)...

...how close is this to Blood Bowl (ie. the king of this genre)?

And how friendly is the user interface?

Depending on answers, and what I might find on Youtube on this game, I might install Java again. Might.

It's similar to Blood Bowl in some ways, but I didn't find it nearly as punishing.  Every character can have a Blitz each turn, you don't fail the whole turn you fumble or fail a block, and you can't accidentally kill yourself trying to throw a block.
I don't know whether you can stack players to increase your odds of throwing a good block or defending.  Based on the rules as I understood them, it was more about positioning and spacing your knights.
