With the The main reason, I believe, that the elevation bonus failed to catch my attention (as well as other players) is because of its degree of importance...perhaps its lack of it. Most players don’t do tests to see how much bonus is granted if they do certain things, but after playing the game for a while, they could *feel* whether doing these tasks is effective or not. We usually see players use pikemen to counter cavalries, or skirmishers vs. archers, but how often do we see players actually move their troops to an elevated ground to counter their enemies? Hardly. I hope to see elevation used in AoM, though [This message has been edited by Fox_Mulder_ (edited 12-06-2001 @ 06:06 PM).]
