Blood has aged so well it has a Cask of Amontillado joke in it

Wanna try playing fighting games again.

So HEY. There's a free game on humble that I want to recommend. I'll start with the link so you can jump on it. https://www.humblebundle.com/store/age-of-wonders-iii

Age of Wonders 3 is a turn-based strategy game set in a fantasy RPG world. It has a campaign, skirmish maps, and multiplayer modes. If I were to compare it to a retro title, the closest is something like Master of Magic with a little HOMM mixed in.
You can play as an army of dragon people, albeit ones with disappointing tails!

It's simpler than one of those paradox Grand Strategy games but still has a bit of a learning curve. The focus is on settling and defending cities, fighting instanced battles on hex grids, and making effective use of magic both in battle and the strategic map. You also get a lot of hero units, including one that you customize as the leader of your empire. You can spec into D&D style "good" and "evil" alignments or various role-playing classes that determine what your hero can do in battles and the kinds of unique units they will be able to recruit. Every race/class combination is playable (I have no idea how good the balance is)

And hey, it's developed in the Netherlands! :U

The freebie is only the base game, but I think only the game host needs the DLC to play with the new races/classes/win conditions. You can try them out with me if you want!

My heroes are resolve level 5 or 6 and I *still* can't beat the miller. Lost a good highwayman. Even at max resolve the end of the game isn't in sight.

This game is really long...

what the heck, nobody told me that Data East made *good* games too

Poll: how do my Leper and my Abomination who are definitely in love kiss?

I know it's pretty grim by design but to me there's something really positive about a game that says "hey, these stressors, quirks, and mental afflictions are real things and sometimes they can cause you setbacks, but there are things you can do to work past them if you are persistent." And the great thing is that the real-world version of that struggle involves fewer diseased swinetaurs.

Darkest Dungeon is really starting to get to me. These random characters are turning into reluctant heroes, bold heroes out of nowhere, stubborn braggarts, people who turn into abusive scumbags in stressful situations, fearful lovers, etc. It's a game where I can look at the darkness and the fragile bickering of my party and say "No, you aren't taking any of my friends away today."

advanced heros get ego trips and start refusing to go on low-level adventures???? Ahhh D:

Everybody played the good Star Wars games yesterday so I'm playing SWGB. https://www.twitch.tv/commachameleon
