Yeah, few things I don't understand about this game, and at this point I think I should. My creature never uses spells on the other creature which is weird, only on infantry. I spent all my tribute points i've earned (sort of like money, earned from quests) on making my creature a better fighter. In fact, he's a "master" level fighter, as evil as you can get, knows every spell he can know so far, has 100% muscle, and the other creature sometimes still manages to take him down. One reason why, is he attacks ALOT faster and he when knocks my creature down he does several special moves.... one he jumps on him and starts pounding his face to pulp and other he stomps on him. When my slow ass creature manages to actually hit him, he does a great deal of damage and might actually do a kick sort of thing that knocks him flat on his ass for a few seconds. But, he never jumps on him or anything, just waits for him to get up. Which doesn't make sense because my creature should know how to do those sort of things. I feel like im missing alot here..... The game has other things wrong with it but I try to over look it, hopefully things will get more interesting once I manage to get a bigger town and bigger creature (if he ever grows) so I can have some more impressive fights. Because once you've seen Rome: Total War, the fights here aren't so impressive until you bring your creature into the mix. So far, I've been playing this for a few days non-stop, other than beating the most of the game, I still feel like theres alot missing or that I need to learn. A walkthrough or guide of some sort would be real nice right now, as long and boring as the tutorial was, it still didn't explain alot and I had to learn on my own. I don't know, I haven't beaten the game yet, hopefully things will look up later in the game.
