Best way of putting it? A TGV of strategy games.

If your doubtful pick it up on sale sometime. It will be interesting to see where it grows. Nothing is perfect, but for a strategy game this comes close, and has plenty of potential. I don't know to what extent, but a chess like era piece game in a Napoleonic or Greco Roman period could be cool. During some turns the pop ups are a bit slow after processing the turn, but could be because I had the graphics cranked up all the way.ДЇrom what I understand, but I'm no EE guru by any means, the game is/ will be moddable. If I have to give a criticism? The end of turn notice that you didn't pick a science still shows after you have researched all science. One of the things that I like is that each faction has a main quest, and there is are also minor side quests. The Vaulters are very much a science based faction, and the Broken Lords are a dust based faction and don't use food for example. There have been some recent patches as well, and just finished one campaign and started on a new one.

Have to say there is very little to criticize. Have played various games on Endless Legend.
