choice - I have passed onto some friends - maybe now I can convince them :)

@Jafo, Australia is the lucky country. Lucky if you don't get eaten by sharks, crocs, snakes, spiders, stung by jellyfish, burned in massive bush fires, drowned in apocalyptic floods, eaten by biblical swarms of locusts. We have none of that in New Zealand :) Sorry, can't resist hassling big ugly brother Australia.
I am enjoying kronos a lot. Well worth the $15

I can't work out how you are supposed to know that you can apply a discount. Anyone?

and on Halloween too - great timing (yes I know it is tomorrow for you state side individuals)

Nice that sounds like a DLC worth buying.
The learning curve was a bit steeper than expected because certain game mechanics were not obvious to me initially. I am playing the campaign and on to my third scenario and I am enjoying the gameplay (approx 5-6 hours of play). The story is reasonably well done and there is a bit of to-and-thro within a single scenario which keeps it exciting. It brings the "perfect general" game play to modern computers. For the price it has been well worth it so far and I am lo
Because, it means either: he needs new glasses, or he needs to spruce up on his reading ability.
I love my samsung galaxy s3 - I don't want to discuss the boring functional dumb phones I had before that.
What I particularly like is that they did not use a cute cartoony look. I cannot stand the cartoon civ 4 characters and most ipad games have opted for the too cute look as ell. blah! I rather miss the old days where units were hadn drawn for 3d isometric games and they looked gritty and real.
I need to pay more attention to these threads. I have just purchased battle world s kronos - it looked too good to pass up.
they have had 2 backers at 3500 pounds - yikes! Still 50k short though.

I purchased this over the weekend. They state it is beta 0.9 but I believe 0.4 would have been more appropriate. So far am having fun but there are way too many bugs and missing features. But at $15 I won't complain too much.
I would like to see a new HOMM like qame that captures the fun of HOMM2 and 3. I have pledged but I have a feeling they won't reach their target.
Looks very interesting. A mashup of concepts I like. I have decided to back it.
Agreed - the tone is serious so the idea of a lollypop and bunny slippers put me right off.
What annoys me is when a faction declares war which isn't even close to your borders. Often another faction actually sits between your empire and that of the enemy. So you get this constant, "I declare war!", then 20 turns later "let's make peace!" cycle with no actual contact or even the possibility of contact as the empire in the middle won't let you pass.
hmm, sorry but I think I will give this a miss. It doesn't add to the game at all.

BruntFCA I hadn't see those clips before. You know it is happening but when you see it in action it is very shocking. Incredible how the US government and the military think this is acceptable and try to silence all dissenting voices. People like Assange and other whistle blowers should be hailed as heroes. If the bosses are protecting the actions of these war criminals what does that say about the bosses. Sickening. America is rotten at the core.
trailer is certainly effective. I wanna watch it :)
Metacritic is only showing 4 reviews and averaging at 77% I believe this game is a solid 8.5-9
I would like to be able to see other parts of the world. If not spies how about a scrying spell?
One of the things I believe is lacking from all version of the game has been the insight to what other factions are doing. You can find out who they like etc but but you have no idea to the extent of their empire, number of cities the balance of their forces the boundaries of their empire etc etc. I feel the game would benefit from a mid game unit/building that could provide intelligence on other factions. The closer you are to the faction the cheap it would be and the
Let me be the first to offer my congratulations. I can't wait to fire it up. I haven't had a chance to play since the 0.8+ versions.
Awesome news. I am hoping diplomacy receives a bit of love before you send it out.
