As morbid as it sounds, when a Molotov blows a bunch of guys up, body parts roll around sometimes with a head rolling down a hill into a pond. If gore makes things more real, Myth doesn t skimp on realism here either. When somebody blows up, their body parts, including armor and weapons, project radially from the blast, falling complete with bouncing thumps and stained grass. Carnage from past battles remain after a battle is finished, giving evidence of what the user s army missed out on. Myth is different from other war strategy games like War Craft in that the strategy comes not in building up units and gaining new weapons.
Myth concentrates on the front lines.
You re given X amount of resources and it s up to you to deploy them the best way possible. You can put units in preset formation and redeploy them on the fly as the battle unfolds. When trying to describe the game to a friend, I compared it to the movie Brave Heart. Probably the coolest part about Myth is that the computer is pretty smart. The computer won t allow you to lead the enemy into an ambush.
