skullbanggames Posted January 28, 2013 Regarding the board game feel of X-Com, check out this interview with Jake Solomon from Firaxis where he says him and Sid Meier actually did design it as a board game before moving on to actual code: http://www.rockpapershotgun.com/2012/09/07/xcom-enemy-unknown-preview-3/ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

kgsan Posted January 31, 2013 Did anybody catch the fourth fantasy strategy title of 2012 which Tom Chick mentioned (in addition to Conquest of Elysim, Fallen Enchantress and Warlock)? It was one I had not heard of and would like to take a look at if I can track it down. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

derbius Posted February 3, 2013 I fancied a fantasy strategy title so FYI the relevant links for downloads are: http://www.desura.co...st-of-elysium-3 (Mac, Linux and PC - free demo avail, quite cheap (£6.99) but lo res) Fallen Enchantress http://www.elemental...len-enchantress (full price, PC only) Warlock http://www.warlockma...fthearcane.com/ - PC only, mid-price http://www.gameranki...cane/index.html for reviews Eador Genesis http://www.gog.com/g...d/eador_genesis PC only $6 but there's a Steam greenlight for a 'reboot' http://steamcommunit...ls/?id=93959913 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
