Even better, am thought £24.99 was the discount price, the discount is half that if you have RTW, pre ordered for £12.50, insanity not too.

Hell I spent £10 on a top hat that doesn't fit for the Oscars themed zoom quiz last week

Age of Empires IV is coming "this Fall".

http://store.steampo..._of_Empires_IV/

It's looking pretty amazing.



Also, AoEII is getting ANOTHER (7th) expansion, "Dawn of the Dukes" in the summer. Looks like the Polish lobby finally hunted down the devs, and we're gonna get more Eastern European civs in the game. I was hoping for an India-themed expansion, but having Hussite Wars in AoEII was always a dream of mine, so if we end up getting Poles & Bohemians as 2 new civs, I'm not gonna complain (much)

Skimming the neutral reviews, basically the gist appears to be "it's a lot prettier, but the newer games have surpassed it"

No mention of anything being broken, just a faithful shinening up

It's pretty, and it's Rome TW. Nothing more, nothing less. Rome has aged (a lot of the conveniences from prior games are gone) but it's still a good game.

Considering how much I disliked Rome 2, the reviews don't worry me.

It's all going to be about the mods. Give it a few months and it'll go even better.

I'll hold off on it then. I still need to try out the CK3 flavour pack I bought last month.

Got a bit psyched by the teaser for Warhammer 3 gampelay thats coming next week.

Yeah? I was wondering when we'd get more news on that.

Don't suppose you guys remember a show from 20 years back that used Rome TW to let hapless normies re-enact historical battles?

Wish they did it again, sadly the latest iterations arent really set up for that.

Age of Empires 4 civs confirmed:

-English
-French
-Chinese
-Delhi Sultanate
-Mongols
-Abbasid Caliphate
-Rus
-Holy Roman Empire




Here's a breakdown on how the first 6 work. Sounds like Relic is putting in a lot of thought on how to bring that Dawn of War faction-specific mechanics into the overall Age of Empires framework.

I suspect I might just pre-order this to pick up the AoEII expac for free, since there's no way I'm not buying that.
