Red Alert 3 hasn’t grabbed me yet – it’s more average than anything else – but there is lots of cleavage that I try hard not to look at because that would be rude. Does anyone find it odd that in this alternate universe all the women are very attractive and drawn to the most […]

A Dubious Pre-Order Gift and more
October 29th, 2008 · 14 Comments · Creative Assembly, Industry, Napoleonics
If you pre-order Empire: Total War, you will get Rome: Total War for free. Yeah, Rome is half a decade old.

The biggest strategy map ever?
October 17th, 2008 · 7 Comments · Design, Paradox, Preview
Paradox is promising that their upcoming WW2 strategy sequel, Hearts of Iron 3, will have 10,000 provinces. As a point of contrast, Hearts of Iron 2 had a little over 2600. So, almost a fourfold increase in territories. If my hometown Miramichi doesn’t get a separate territory, I will be a little sad. Why so […]
