I'm in the same boat. The mod has all sorts of obvious flaws, but I always find myself enjoying it anyway. Sometimes I'm even enjoying it because of the flaws, not in spite of them.

As an example, one Netherworld castle in particular is pretty poorly set up. The AI pathing can't figure out how to assault it, so during an attack your army is likely to try ascending a mountain at a speed of roughly one millimeter per minute. Even if you have them follow you, your troops will inevitably get stuck on objects somewhere, thus making your forces mostly worthless. However, the defending troops are also really poorly arranged. If you're good enough, you can travel all around the map to the back door, infiltrate the castle while shooting a handful of archers, and then slaughter the entire garrison single-handedly. Because of the way the map is set up, the archers' line of sight is mostly blocked by terrain and the mob of melee defenders, so it's easy to bait a few samurai away at a time for an "honorable duel." It's a silly situation brought about by poor design, but going on a solo mission and hacking through ~150 undead samurai was also a lot of fun.

I also never fail to be amused when watching a squad of lancers crash into a horde of giant catfish, or when some angry fairies tell me they're going to drink from my skull.
