If I'm wrong then please somebody explain to me where is the role-playing part so I can appreciate it as it was mentionned on the box of the game. Sorry if this post appear twice it seems to get nuked everytime I post it.
''Revolutionnay combination of action, strategy, and role-playing''. Where ? How ? This game is just a serie of skirmish.
the role playing part of the game would be the leveling up and stat juggling with different items ect. which is what an RPG game on the pc is defined as...
A role-playing game (RPG; often roleplaying game) is a game in which the participants assume the roles of fictional characters. Participants determine the actions of their characters based on their characterization,[1] and the actions succeed or fail according to a formal system of rules and guidelines. Within the rules, players have the freedom to improvise; their choices shape the direction and outcome of the game.

Roleplaying Ie LEVELING UP!!!! Buying new equipement to enhance your capabilities,etc...
Did you notice a flashing + button at the bottom of the screen? Towards the middle, just a tad to the left.
You're being far to literal in how you're understanding the RPG or "Role Playing Game" tag on a game box. If a game has RPG elements, it's nearly always referring to the ability to level up and customize your character as you see fit, be it through items, skills, appearance or all of these together. It does not strictly refer to you assuming the direct role of a character and guiding him or her through a story or series of stories.
Its roleplaying in the same way Diablo was roleplaying. You are playing the ROLE of a DEMIGOD with certain abilities that you can develop.
Would you have loved the other type....
OK! I got 6 AP (action points). I use 3 points to be able to move max distance on this turn..so I move the Rook 20 yards in your direction. Then I use 2 AP to ready my hammer and archers in my towers (grants me + 200 damage). And finally, I use 1 AP to "Brace for Impact" meaning I will suffer -120 damage during your turn.
Ok my turn is done!
Time for Torch Bearer who has 7 AP (due to a ring of Agility +1).
<=======================That the sort of Role-playing you want on a pc???
