    Default Bring back the Quick Battle!

    I loved just pressing Quick Battle and bam, there you are, in a battlefield with a random army and faction against a totally random opponent. Really makes you think on your feet and the surprise of who you will face is always nice. Can we have it back for Rome II?

    Yes that would be good but in Rome 1 quick battle wasn't random, it was a cycle of 4 or 5 pre set battles.

    Well they can bring it back if they give up with the idea of leaderboard and avatar conquest so people will avoid cheating and exploiting in quick battles.

    Oh yeah sorry, I misunderstood the OP.

    Quick battles were a lot of challenge indeed. I remember when I won a quick battle for the first in Medieval TW (the first one). I felt like the greatest general ever.
    There was close to no balance, that's why they were great and epic.

    ^This. They were completely random and pointless. 5 Onagers 4 archers and a unit of light cavalry? Against a whole stack of infantry? Just No!

    quick battle was a simple and a good idea, fast random battle versus random opponent with random army. CA bring it back!

    It's not only to bring it back, it's to actually make it work this time. Last time they made a couple of preset battles that you could play. Now, especially if the technology of TeD is used for the battlefields in Rome 2, they should be able to generate random maps, as for randomizing well balanced armies to face each other, that is something else. We will see about that, but I would not place my hopes in it.
