Way to force tactical combat

from Elemental Forums

just starting out and there are a few wolves floating around the kingdom.  Thought I could handle it with spells so I attacked one. It autoresolved without prompting, I won but lost 2 hits. No matter, I go for the second, same thing.  I can't take on the 3rd without dying, why does it always autoresolve.  Is there a way to force tactical even for one on one?

There is a slider in the options to fight all tactical battles... but it's not named friendly.  Set it from 3 to 1 or 0 (can't remember.)

 

I have not had a chance to play the final game yet, but in the beta I had this issue.  My main guy had 0 attack, but plenty of sells.  The tactical - auto-combat, would never use magic so I would die each time. 

To get around this, there was a setup option (last tab I think?) that said something like seed battle and the slider had 3 (it looked like the other other options.. sort of hidden).  You change it to 0/1 and you can fight everything you want.

The setting is called "Tactical Threshold", and should be set to 0 as fast as possible.
