Кстати, у М2 есть англоязычный офсайт? А то на majesty2.com до сих пор информация по первой части.
Are there any drawbacks for making parties? I know you just can make them one at the time, but in the endgame - Will you make as many 4-unit parties as possible because that's the best strategy, or are there any factors that you need to consider before making another party?
AleXX's been answered this question (BYP for my unsteady translation into English
):
As devs plan, each next creating party will be more expensive than previous (for making of party you must spend some money), so limit of parties if it exists is so money-regulated.
Are there any reasons to make parties of 2 or 3 instead of 4?
I think there are several reasons. If you haven't got many heroes few people will respond when you will announce a levy in party, and you will have an alternative: wait when will respond another heroes or create party in praesenti. Also may be you won't to make such party, as you want, from responded heroes. And may be it will be cheaper (I hope that
AleXX will clear up that).
