I'm extremely interested in the topic (and wish there were more Bronze Age games ... hoping for a Field of Glory Empires expansion ... or army lists for FOG2), and while the reviews aren't horrible, they also don't seem to be great. Basically it seems good, but not as good as Three Kingdoms or Warhammer II.

That said, I broke down and have now registered with Epic to claim this game. :blush:

Epic is great for collecting free games and never playing them.

I have 35 games in my Epic library, never played them  :lol:

In fairness, I'd like to try Kingdom Come at some point.

It has a naive teenage boy's view of Medieval times, which is a bit frustrating as it prides itself on authenticity, but otherwise I enjoyed my time with it. The bad guys are swearing in actual Hungarian.

I almost bought Kingdom Come last steam sale but I was reading the recent customer reviews and they were saying it as still buggy and broken.
I've given it serious thought. I must scorn the ways of my family, and seek a Japanese woman to yield me my progeny. He shall live in the lands of the east, and be well tutored in his sacred trust to weave the best traditions of Japan and the Sacred South together, until such time as he (or, indeed his house, which will periodically require infusion of both Southern and Japanese bloodlines of note) can deliver to the South it's independence, either in this world or in space.  -Lettow April of 2011

It is still really good though. Next time there is a sale you might pick it up if the price is right.

I dunno, I never finished it.  I thought I would like the 'hardcore' history of the game but I felt like combat and shit was pretty boring since, well, there's no magic. :blush:

I mean, I downloaded Epic just to grab it for free. Not sure if I'll actually play it, but having the option is nice if the game turns out not to suck.
The medievals were only too right in taking nolo episcopari as the best reason a man could give to others for making him a bishop. Give me a king whose chief interest in life is stamps, railways, or race-horses; and who has the power to sack his Vizier (or whatever you care to call him) if he does not like the cut of his trousers.

Government is an abstract noun meaning the art and process of governing and it should be an offence to write it with a capital G or so as to refer to people.

Oh, it's definitely worth checking out, it just didn't hold my interest long-term.

And on that same day, Apple and Epic gear up for battle.

Yeah, I'll get a spin.

Today is first day that you can get the Amazons DLC for free for Troy if you have that Total War Access account.

The little intro movie and the room menu thing is pretty neat.  Only problem is that the game isn't quite as fun for me as it was back in 1993.  :(

If anyone is looking for a kind of blend of Megaman with bits of Metroid, there's a free game called Hargrave on Steam:

Following on this, worth checking steam this weekend.

Free yakuza/streets of rage mashup game sounds interesting.
