Ah wow looks ace!! Good excuse for a new computer...

I was a big fan of the Civ games. I hate to think how many hours I've lost to Civ, Football manager, and painting models!!!!

Hmmm, hex's.............i can't recall playing a good game that had hex's, but maybe the 2K team can pull it off!

the amount of hours that i have wasted on this partictully game is quite staggering i if i have the time buy but i tend to play facebook games but i would seroiusly look at it when it comes out

I have loved played several additions of both Civ and Champ Manager. I prefer turn based games to RTS so I can play at the same time as watching TV. I also prefer the strategic element of both games comparede to say a First Person Shooter.

Hex based will make the game interesting and the initial graphics look great. I might have to upgrade my creaking old laptop but if game is released in autumn then that gives me the chance to save up ready.

Cheers

Got it and im playing it atm. looks good, plays like a total war game. The sound is great you can hear teh crys of the dieing and the snare drum as your foot march in to battle.
