This is a great game and I love it but I think it's garbage that certain items are random. It gives very little incentive to replay and plan a killer army. You can't say, "alright next game I'll use these troops with these items" because they're random. It takes a HUGE strategic element out of the game. I also hear of some getting ridiculous critical hits and would love to experience that once in a while but I can't due to the items being random.
If they could fix that or if someone could make a mod to fix this it would be a much better game. I've played twice already and have not found the pain skull, thats BS.
PLEASE someone make a mod.
