I tried simulating a dream I had. In the dream, there was a paladin fight. My paladin has managed to fend off two paladins, plus smacked an ultimatum on the head, leaving it to retreat to Athenas. In the dream, however, I couldn't produce athenas. The only factory I had was an air factory, and the air factory was obsolete with the amount of anti-air at that stage of the battle. So, I found a factory my teammate wasn't using, an air factory, and I sent the paladin there, even if in-combat repairs would take shorter retreat time.

Through that dream, I learned that if I wish to be taken care of and rest, I need to visit the house of an idle worker.



To simulate the dream, when I woke up, I started a battle with 8 bots vs 8 bots, with me on one of the teams. I set up the battle, letting it run normally, I picked the highway map that looked like the battlefield in my dream, and I got to the point where I could attack with the paladin.

Because our team was winning easily, I managed to do the thing I always dreamed of, and I made the battle unfair. I didn't fight against a single paladin, I added two. The opponent wouldn't have survived without the value of the additional paladin, and this got me to reenact the scene as epic as a teenager's dream.

Using cheats to increase the difficulty is an easy way to prolong a battle you were enjoying. Versus bots, nobody would mind such a change, but it is these unexpected changes that I often wish were represented in... pvp games, even if my wish will be left in the shadow and ignored. Still, should be fun vs friends and bots.
