European Escalation is a hoot so I have high hopes for this.


Hopes that my poor monkey brain can handle coordinating this much havoc.

[The E]

I really should try getting into this game.

[Pred the Penguin]

Wow, that looks pretty damn cool.

[General Battuta]

Wargame European Escalation was the freshest and most remarkably well-designed RTS since...maybe Homeworld. I was blown away by the fact that they built an accessible, competitive, decently well-balanced game which did not require APM and actually incorporated logistics and battalion-level tactics without turning into a grogfest.

Again, fo highlights: a competitive RTS which did not offer significant scaling rewards with APM.

If you liked World in Conflict, you will friggin' love this.

[NGTM-1R]

This is a good game and I should play it more.

Not necessarily, they are very very different.

Hmm. Well, I always liked the WiC/Ground Control style but I felt it was lacking in size. This game has that kind off style (emphasis on cover, flanking, no resource management). It's just much bigger.

ATM I'm playing this:



Wargame
Also has good deapth and precisely modeled units (tracks fuel, supplies and ammo of every weapon).



UUu...Airland Battle looks interesting.
EDIT:

No F-14? Son, I am dissapoint.

Hey I have somebody in my W:EE friends list goes by the handle KillerKarlKrook, is that possibly you, Batts or NGTM-1R?

For some reason I thought it was somebody from HLP.

They're to busy with the:

Nah, if you see me it's the inept guy who's named "Night".

This could be a good teaser to guess what plane will be in this game.

This could be a good teaser to guess what plane will be in this game.

Considering Wargame: EE's approach to the subject, it's probably ALL the planes.

The A-10's main gun can't kill tanks like that! Nerd rage!

Coming up -- One hug for StarSlayer for turning me onto Wargame: European Escalation, and your permission is not needed!

The A-10's main gun can't kill tanks like that! Nerd rage!

Just to nerd out further -- Wouldn't the end result be the same, though? I think it was in Company of Heroes that machine gun crews had an option to still damage the tank by spraying it with machinegun fire because optics, tracks, etc, could still be messed up by fairly conventional types of damage.

Pre order is for everyone. WEE players get a discount .


Don't expect much from hte beta though, it's not "Feature complete but buggy and all that stuff". Rather, it has very limited functionality, as it is multiplayer only and the decks are set in stone atm. However, it still is a lot of fun .

[General Battuta]

Yeah, that's what I meant.
