Hello!
I'm new to M&B and the forums. I ask this question because one reason I enjoy this game so much is how it reminds me of an older game. Back in the early 80's there was a game for the Apple IIe called Parthian Kings. M&B is similar in that you raise your army and control them in battle. With Parthian Kings it was units you created and gave names to. They also gained expeirence in battles and so would upgrade and even better you named each unit. So in the mid-game, you had your Queens Guard that you only brought to battle if needed, as you tried to build up less expierenced units to do their share. Anyway, had to share that golden memory and I'm sure others have other games that this brings memories of.
