I was really curious how people would take on the combat system and if there would be certain strategies made by some, so this is really great input/feedback!
The way you went about it was essentially what the main gameplay loop was intended to be with it being a grindy roguelike style game, but I agree that sometimes getting a full crew wipe can make it hard to recuperate so I might have some fail safes for anyone who wants to get the ball rolling again after reaching a hard spot.
I'm so glad you enjoyed your time with SoldierSlain and hope you're looking forward to more!!! :D
