That 2x2 is like a diamond players wet dream, the royal bathhouse is easilly passable but that 2x2 time limit build is crazy good. Means there is a way to boost your attacking army with every spot in your city.
Other then that, this seems like an intense time waster, which is really, not what FoE needs so soon after GBG launch (which still needs updates). GBG already making the game take a lot more time.
Considering how the world is currently losing it's collective gak over the now pandemic situation, many, many, MANY of us may soon very well have at least 1-2+ months worth of time to kill.
note: I am NOT! taking the current climate lightly, just pointing out that our traditional 'busy modern life' as we've come to know and enjoy it is in for a very rough ride for the next while, and we could all probably use anything & everything to try and take our minds off the daily constant feeds of doom & pending zombie apocalypse.
If anything, a massive time waster will probably be a good comfort since one can only re-watch Netflix/DVD's for so long.
I'm hoping that I can finally be rid of my *final* Japanese play-through within a couple more days and then I can give the new Egyptians a test drive!
