I always forget about that spell, though.

Leave it to Thuryl to be against secret passages 'because they're too easy'.

Actually the Romans have to use head bashing in the beginning since they don't have piercing sight to help them. Besides in some places it isn't obvious exactly where the secret door is located as in the Maze with the Spider Queen.

The passages in the spider areas aren't fun because they're so random, but I liked the effect. Just like the difficulty of navigating the forest near the Cult of the Sacred Item in A3, it's atmospheric and effective even while it's irritating.

Mazes and forests don't bother me so much. At least with them I know I'm not missing anything. I always get that sinking feeling when I'm about to exit a dungeon that I may have missed a passage, and that that passage just might have had the best item in the game.

For me, that is the best part. I love the fact that I can still find new things in the games even on the third or fourth play through.

I personally like the secret passages, but I would prefer fewer and no ability to spell find them. Perhaps, there could be clues given to hint when one needs to find a secret passage - as in talking to a NPC or finding a map fragment...

Puzzle mazes are even better.

At least the old Exile games had an option in the editor to reveal all maps. That way I was sure to not miss anything. I was disapointed when that feature was gone by the Avernums. On a side note, I'm also disapointed that there is no way to get rid of the fog of war in Age of Empires III. What's with game companies and making things more difficult for us cheaters?
