Si tratta di una recensione molto positiva per un gioco appena uscito.

Intervista alla sviluppatore di Pike & Shot

Su The Wargamer trovate un'intervista agli sviluppatori di Pike&Shot, il light wargamer della Slitherine ambientato nel periodo delle Picche e Moschetti. Il gioco usa l'engine di Battlefield Academy. Decisamente troppo sempliciotto per i miei gusti, ma può certo piacere.

Free Hegemony Rome: The Rise Of Caesar DLC Bannermen

E' stata rilasciata una DLC free per Hegemony Rome: The Rise Of Caesar, Bannermen ; debbo dire che ancora non mi sono deciso se e quando prendere il gioco. Non ho ancora inquadrato bene quanto sia riuscito, anche se l'elenco delle features qui sotto è allettante:

Features of Hegemony Rome: The Rise of Caesar

•           Direct from the hand of Caesar – Four campaigns follow the conquests of Julius Caesar as he wrote them in Commentarii de Bello Gallico. Bridge the Rhine, invade Britannia and conquer the Gauls in over 100 objectives or choose from over 20 factions in the epic sandbox mode.

•           All new map – Explore over one million square kilometers that are seamlessly zoomable, from the Mediterranean coast to the shores of Britannia.

•           Improved graphics engine – Hegemony Rome supports 10x the terrain detail over previous installments and features a diverse and immersive landscape to explore.

•           Build an empire – The construction system allows players to build forts, walls, and bridges at thousands of sites across the map to cement Roman control over the barbarian kingdoms.

•           Promote your legions – Players can train officers to augment their unit’s skills as well as appoint governors and construct buildings to expand and improve their cities.

•           Starve your enemies – Supply camps and logistics system makes sieges and supply lines more intuitive and more important than ever.

Version 1.0
Author: Little Powell, RebBugler, LouiRaider, 2nd Texas 

This a standalone mod for Scourge Of War - Gettysburg. It is a special project we did for Liberty College in Lynchburg, VA for the 150th commemoration of the battle. 

Important: You must have patch 1.5 or later to use this add-on.

Features:

- 5x5 mile map covering the Lynchburg battle area, including General Hunter’s headquarters “Sandusky”, The Quaker Meeting house, and other historic structures.
- Five Union and Confederate historic and “what if” scenarios covering the action.
- Historic Order of Battle
- Historic unit flags used during the battle
- One multiplayer scenario covering the action of July 18th, 1864
- In-game Lynchburg splash screens

Notes on the map:

The map includes several tactical features that make for enjoyable Sandbox/Multiplayer games. There is a river that separates the northeastern part of the map which includes the famous covered 9th street bridge. There are two earthen forts (Ft. Early and Ft. McCausland) and plenty of open areas surrounded by woods and LOTS of hills. Also the distinctive high mountain peaks to the southeast.
