I definitely agree. The way they are played right now, Generals aren't much worse than Assassins one-on-one. They can drop light towers faster and easier than assassins, because of siege cannoneers. As they can solo enemy Assassins and also have 12 troops + spirits or night walkers at their command, the balance is sort of questionable. Erebus has an instant, relatively well-damaging, self-healing, quickly-recharging, cheap spell. With bat form he can fly up to a melee and wipe out the enemy c

How much better? Worth the extra 500? Do they
One thing I noticed while playing Oak was that if you're clicking to open your kill tree and your hand slips you might start planting a raise dead ward... while your skill tree is open. I've also found that targetting Oak's hit + vulnerability ability to be kind of a pain on demigods, especially at close range - is there a minimum range to it? It might be nicer if it targeted as generously as his shield, which I've found to be very easy to apply to yourself in the middle of a desperat
It looks like a slinger scroll - the kind that lowers your attack speed.
I'm playing windowed with an 8800 GTS; I've got the latest drivers if nothing new came out in the past month or so. Every time I start a new game and start messing with which AI (and myself) get what demigod the list of AIs stays popped up... and in front of the demigods, so I can barely see the buttons.
