A preview of Age of Wonders 2 has been posted at Gamespy today. Here's a bit:
This time around, the game's single-player campaign will cast you as the young human leader Merlin. With humanity on the verge of extinction, Merlin and his last followers are attacked by a band of dragons. Saved from death by the great mage Gabriel, Merlin will need to restore order to the land of Evermore, whose lands have been torn asunder by a schism among its most powerful wizards. Along with the main campaign, you can also look forward to single scenarios, all playable with either alternating or simultaneously executed turns. You'll also get a scenario editor for creating your own challenges, as well as full multiplayer support allowing up to eight players to compete over the Internet or a LAN. Expect play-by-e-mail and hotseat options, too. |
