I just started a game with version 0.77 of the beta and it's been pretty awesome. I started this one with a challenging world difficulty, challenging AIs, 3 Kingdoms and 4 Empires and a "ravaged" terrain setting. By being a turn to slow to pick a starting location, I was forced to go on a 70 turn odyssey crossing most of the continent, going to war with the Empire of Yithril, and running thru 2 fierce wildlands before finally finding a secure place to found my kingdom. I recruited 4 champions, had some epic battles, gained several levels, and saw some downright scary monsters before finally even starting my kingdom. So far, 1 empire and 1 kingdom have been destroyed by the monsters of the world.

Here's the map of the world as I know it, showing my long trek to home....
Here's a fun screenie of my best melee champion with a growth spell cast on her fighting 2 hapless ice elementals. This was part of a quest that had to do with farmers who were unable to grow crops due to constant freezes.
My city, Hope as it currently stands...
My posse. I'm riding a warg that I rescued from a lair.
