Skonar Posted September 18, 2007 Report Share Posted September 18, 2007 Interesting little Indy game. Basically it's a turn based strategy game with some CCG type elements - units, structures, etc etera are represented by virtual cards which you can then lay down on a hex-board with a certain expenditure of resources. It's got some quirks, but I've been enjoying it. Single-player only, mind. https://www.crypticcomet.com/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FullAuto Posted September 18, 2007 Report Share Posted September 18, 2007 Seeing as you took the trouble to post I better have a go. Gutted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skonar Posted September 19, 2007 Author Report Share Posted September 19, 2007 Let me know what you think of it. I certainly haven't run across any games like it for a good few years now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FullAuto Posted September 20, 2007 Report Share Posted September 20, 2007 Rather good! Manual needs rewriting though, I played better before I read it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gimli Posted September 20, 2007 Report Share Posted September 20, 2007 Finally! I've been looking for something like this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Space Voyager Posted September 25, 2007 Report Share Posted September 25, 2007 Is this like Panzer General? I loved that game and it fit on one disquette. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FullAuto Posted September 25, 2007 Report Share Posted September 25, 2007 It looks like it is, but it isn't (beyond the hexes). Very, very different. About the only thing they have in common is hexes and their turn-based gameplay. And tanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thorondor Posted November 17, 2007 Report Share Posted November 17, 2007 I took Armageddon Empires' demo for a spin and was very pleasantly surprised. The post-apoc setting shines through admirably, even with the sometimes clunky interface, and, perhaps most importantly, I found myself constantly having to make decisions. They matter, for a change, and if one happens to blunder along a turn without adequate consideration the mutants, the xenos, et al may well step in to assist in delivering you from your reverie. Somehow, I don't think they see things just as a game... Indeed, you hardly expect it which makes it all the more fun to find out there's hope yet for binary wars. The developers aren't sleeping on their laurels quite yet either and, after the patches, a free 'expansion' is expected for this very winter. :: I've also noticed our friends over at Tacticular Cancer have recently put up a review of it so, if you're curious, as you should, check it out.

Slaughter Posted November 18, 2007 Report Share Posted November 18, 2007 I need to take this for a spin soon then! Speaking of reviews, how are you doing FA? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FullAuto Posted November 18, 2007 Report Share Posted November 18, 2007 Should be finished before the end of the week, actually. Better be, anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
