Well, the Royal thorns are always there on the start island. I think they are supposed to be there. The number you get varies, but I have never seen less than 3 or more than 5. As for recruiter Norbu, the units in the camp vary. I have seen knights, paladins, bowmen, swordsmen... It depends. So I guess if someone wants a decent tank early on, saving the game right at the start and going over to the Scarlet Wind island to check what's in the camp doesn't hurt at all - oh, and while you're at it, you can check the tower in the graveyard and see if there are some Archmagi there. Archmagi + Paladins = easy no-loss victories early on
 That is especially useful if you're trying to beat the game with as few losses as possible or you're going for the leadership upgrade medals quickly (like in the first 50 battles). Generally, if you get enough leadership and make a dash to the camp and then to the tower you can get a nice amount of strong units that will shrug off most the enemy attacks in the early battles.Still, I think this counts the most on Impossible The other difficulties will present easier going.

Zhuangzi, did you buy your copy of the Russian version at the IC store or another store? Can you post a link if so?
Most Russian new release games are very cheap and some come with both English and Russian translations, so you save a lot compared to if you bought it from the overpriced bricks and mortar stores. There's only a week to go till release yet no sign of KB:AP anywhere...

http://online.1c.ru/games/game/4030514/ For some reason, when I tried to access this again now, the whole online.1c site is listed as an attack site! But I ignored it. I used Google translate to navigate these pages. The game is 400 rubles, about $15 Aus  About the release date, I think my prediction of Nov 11 may come into play after all, but that may be an optimistic date. I haven't seen anything about it anywhere either, but that doesn't mean it's vaporware. The thing that I find confusing now is that 1C said it was simply a matter of translation/localisation, but this process has taken longer for AP (a shorter game) than it did for TL. And as you know, the actual words in these games are the least important part. I still believe that the release has been deliberately held over to the holiday season to increase sales, which makes perfect sense, but I wish we had been told that 6+ months ago.  EDIT: If that sounds like I'm complaining about blown release dates, I'm not. Of course I'm familiar with release dates slipping, but it does seem different when it's simply a matter of translation/localisation AND the exact same process has already been done for TL which is 90% the same game. So this situation isn't comparable with a normal game release (Diablo 3 etc) at all. Last edited by Zhuangzi; 10-23-2009 at 12:16 AM.

You are very right to say these words, and they are completely true. The only thing that comes to mind is that 1C is working on other projects as well - and maybe this takes some of the time that should be allocated in KBAP and this is why the translation and fixes stall a bit.
*Discontent all around the forum because of this post* **Yeah, easy for you to say, since you played it through a couple of times**

1c is the publisher not the developer. What you say *might* be true; but it would apply to the developer
(unless it is the publisher who is doing the translation) Quote:
