"A Thinking Man's game"


:: Screenshots ::
» Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... «

I tried the demo yesterday, had a blast with it for 6 hours straight, seriously!
If you like strategy game, this is it. It's not as hardcore as the pc version, more fast pace and...fun?? Suppper addictive!!


Why the MP is fun?
-It's turn-based but everyone move simultaneously.
-Live vision support.
-Private Chat from the game instead of dashboard (why? Look down)
-Diplomacy!!! Imagine playing with 4 players...*evil grin* Expect lotsa betrayal & fake alliance...
There are alot of diplomatic option in the game, not just ally or hostile.

Giving up Grid and going for this tomorrow!!! Any strategy fan, hit me up for a game or two because it's not a popular genre on console sad.gif
(lag shouldn't be an issue because it's turn-based)


Come on...launching a nuclear warhead at your opponent who are still stuck at medieval age! That's fun! rclxms.gif

Faster paced, can combine units to create armies, roads have to be bought (instead of built). Too bad the demo has no savegame feature. I can imagine now..... gonna be a zombie in the office because of the "just one more turn" syndrome.

Lemme know if you wanna MP hehe.

You buying??
Demo i don't think can invite because it only allow player matchmaking and the turn is limited.

My 360 is not off yet, i am still sobbing here because i was betray by AI and my human opponent launch the nuclear warhead at the sea then send me xbl message "hope you enjoy the show" while my best warmachine is a freakin' catapult doh.gif

Yup... definitely on my must buy list. For those days when I'm bored with FPS, or balik kampung.

Good, See you on the battefield when you got the game. Fear my mongolian army! (from the stats it looks like a good rusher with all the barbarian allies)

It's not Realtime strategy, so it works even better. (given that RTS is also playable on console now)

I am playing this game non-stop and work my way up the ladder...Be warned, one game can last up to 6 hours or longer!

Top 3 laugh.gif


Having loads of fun with it, chatting with random people in each game, exchanging strategy or leisure talk.
(compare to the RTS crowd who usually send a big "f u" XBL message when each game end laugh.gif ) Probably all the player of CR are old man tongue.gif



The sense of accomplishment when you are able to protect your civilization knowingly each nation want a piece of you is....unspeakable. thumbup.gif
My favourite combo : Chinese (literacy) + Technology + Democracy + abit of culture.
Military might = Bomber + G.Infantry...american style biggrin.gif
