Some fellow IRC goons will already be sick of this game after last time. But for those who didn't see it drum role ... http://www.xgenstudios.com/castle/castle.swf Hope everyone has fun... I think the record last time was something like level 80? It would be best to read the help before you play, and you will have to wait till about level 5 before it isn't boring any more :smile:

Yeah, pretty pointless. I think I have somewhere around 300-400 archers, just killing everything before it even gets on the screen. And that's only around level 30-40?

It's really easy just to fling the enemy at the right hand side of the screen as fast as you can! Anywhos lvl10 and no probs so far, without archers...

Argh, its so annoying when you lose your units for no reason - just got to stage 8 and lost all 15 archers despite not having my castle touched once all game. Grrrrr!

The giants make things very intersting for like 6 rounds then you just get so many archers/wizards it doesn't matter

You lose units for 'no reason' when you spent all your money and didn't have enough for unit upkeep at the end of the level.

Wait - I normally spend all of my money, but earn plenty at the end of a stage to pay my unit upkeep. Do you need to have enough remaining funds from before the round started or something?

we used to have a trivia game on fridays on wireplay - someone would start the thread (whoever got there first) and ask a general knowledge stylee question.

the person with the right answe (no googling!) got to set the next question :smile: always good fun and enlightening :biggrin:

When I play this I feel like one of those dragon creatures in ROTK.
