[QUOTE="N0Man, post: 4850963, member: 64066"] I wouldn't go as far as to say "superior". You are surely going to get someone to disagree with that statement. It brings up "superior for what?" It's not more accurate, but I whole-heatedly agree that it is more user-friendly and more intuitive to the average person (especially new players). Honestly, it's I find it way more easy to eyeball movement now than before. It might make 45 degree angles deceptively close, but it also prevents frustration of not quite reaching a distance because you have 1 space more to move and your last diagonal costs 2 more. In fact, 1-2-1 movement cheats players out of at least 1 square just about any time that the number of diagonal moves in the entire movement is an even number. I even half-wonder if those used to 1-2-1 are so used to being shorted a square of movement, that the extended diagonals of 1:1 just might appear to be even more jarring than they would by people who do not have 1-2-1 ingrained in them.
