Russian gaming site Freelancer has dug up a new preview of Etherlords. Here's something from it:

    So, what is Etherlords? Is that a turn-based strategic game, a RPG or something between? It is kinda hard to say. The absence of affiliation to any genres as such would be an exact definition to the game. This game was often mistakenly compared with Heroes of Might and Magic, or tried to drag it by the head and shoulders into the camp of RPGames, although the only feature of RPG here is an opportunity to enter the player's name in the beginning of the new campaign and that is all. Even the concept of table card games, like MTG, is realized here in the scheme of magic runes. How can we characterize this game? Well, imagine that you are playing a table card game, but instead of field of paper you have a 3-d scene, and instead of Monopoly's plants and factories - geysers of mana, shops of magic utensils and ether portals; and your cards are spells and runes that are incarnated in summoned monsters.
