    After seeing this, I was looking for other TW-genre games and I was wondering if anyone has anyone else played games that are TWish like XII Century by 1C by more in this period?

    I tested the demo, the Artwork is a bit odd and sometimes the unit design sometimes is aswell. but I really like the gameplay a lot much like Civilisation and rise of nations combined and supplied with a neat zoom feature for the map :DD

    now the question arises if I buy This or Mount and blade :D

    Mount and Blade any day. The mods alone make it a god among games.

    I found the demo to be interesting, even if it took a bit to get used to.

    Id say Mount and blade, especially with the 268 BC mod on the horizon. You should check it out if you haven't already.

    Well I bought it and kinda regret it because its still a bit buggy right now but I guess all TW fans should be used to that sort of thing :).

    Thought I would bump this thread. The game is good and getting better. The new 'Gold' version is currently in beta (totally workable though) and is free for anyone who has already bought the first one. Diplomacy is in, AI spam attacks are fixed, manpower is fixed, crushing a faction wthout wiping them out will mostly take care of them (which is good) and sandbox mode is useable so you can play as any faction you want.

    The scale of the game is incredible. I had a game as Sparta and thought "wow my empire is huge" then I zoomed out and thought "bugger, only control half the peloponnese". My current Macedon game has been going for 12 hours and I've only got a thin empire stretching across from Epirus over east of Pella down the Chalcidice region.

    Worthwhile for anyone who has played this before and got fed up with its old issues and for anyone into wargames.
