Combat Mission - Black Sea in pre-ordine

Combat Mission - Black Sea è in pre-ordine da qualche giorno. La lista delle features è davvero lunga quindi probabilmente varrà i soldi chiesti (anche se temo saranno più dei soliti 50 euro). Comunque belle immagini.

I'm back

Finalmente dopo una settimana e mezza quasi senza PC (giustamente per la legge dei grandi numeri il giorno dopo aver ordinato l'assemblato nuovo, il vecchio ha iniziato a scassarsi fino a scassarsi completamente), torno sui vostri schermi.

Inizio a segnalare un nuovo screenshot di Scourge of War Waterloo:

Poi è uscito Wargame Red Dragon

Poi Paradox ha rilascio Wars of Vikings che non è altro che l'ennesima versione di Mount&Blade

Annunciato Combat Mission: Red Thunder

Finalmente si conosce il nome finale del nuovo Combat Mission ambientato sul fronte orientale: come già supposto da molti, ci sono i lanciafiamme!

Red Thunder (nome non certo originale) promette di essere un bel salto in avanti rispetto ai predecessori, che si spera verranno adeguati allo stesso standard con la patch 3.0.

Stronghold Crusader 2 sarà rilasciato questa estate

http://www.strongholdcrusader2.com/

Releasing in the summer is a little later than we had initially hoped, but once again our intention is to release a game that lives up to the Crusader name. Whenever we meet someone who played and enjoyed the original they always have a story to tell about the time they finally beat that hard as nails Crusader Trail mission or when they took on seven AI opponents at once! When people have such fond memories you can’t rush a sequel out the door, which is why we have chosen to take our time when it comes to feature implementation and play testing. We’re at a point now where we can dip into skirmish mode or a multiplayer game during lunch and have fun, which is a fantastic feeling for the team.

With the game in its current state we can spend extra time tuning and tweaking the various new units and siege equipment that will soon be storming other players online. It will also mean we have enough time to reduce the number of bugs and crashes right down before launch and refine the core gameplay loops that make it fun. We know players are eager to get their hands on the game, but Crusader 2 must be fun, stable and complete at launch.

Europa Universalis IV: Wealth of Nations

Annunciata la nuova DLC per EU IV, Wealth of Nations.

La nuova DLC dovrebbe avere le seguenti features:

• The Invisible Hand of the Market: You can act covertly to instigate trade conflicts among the competition, stifling income and leaving yourself atop the economic heap.
• Seize the Seas: Hiring privateers can damage enemy shipments and cripple their trade, but risks retaliation in the form of open warfare if you are caught.
• Capitalize: Empires can designate a specific port as their trade capital, separate from their national capital, and strengthen local trade routes through the use of inland trade nodes.
• Monopolize and Mobilize: Form an East India Company and reach faraway trade partners with an unstoppable shipping concern.

La data di rilascio è prevista per la seconda metà dell'anno.

Histwar Napoleon è stato rilasciato oggi; ho visto i commenti sul forum e sono entusiasti, ma sulla grafica, non ho visto nulla che indicasse un cambiamento radicale nel gameplay.
