Probably Arnor ships. The Dread Lords have their own design as well, but evil looking.

What are those?


That's a Political Machine screenshot, obviously. They're probably on their way to attack Hillary in Bosnia.

On a side note (sorry about the double post, but the edit feature is missing for me from the above statement)::


::Puts on sunglasses::

Oh wait...does this mean that we'll get to make some crystal hulled ships??

::Gets excited::

Excited?!?!? I'm excited about this little teaser: "It'll all be worth it when the team puts out 2 great strategy games in the same year!"
Is the second game The Political Machine, or the as-yet-unannounced fantasy tbs?

The fantasy game has been announced. Stardock is collaberating with Gas Powered Games to build the game. So far the screenshots look pretty cool and the overview of the game looks interesting.

Political Machine  :SNIFF!:

At the very least you'll see one in the first update...I'd promise it for Wed, but time is a bit too tight ATM ;)

Stardock has previously stated that Demigod is *not* their new fantasy TBS game. That still has yet to be announced.

But we already know that they intend to release it sometime 2009. ;)

Hmm.

After a long run with GC2 I've recently lost interest (temporarily, mind you). I just got into Oblivion again and the GC2 itch just hasn't been strong enough thanks to some Oblivion mods that (finally) take the game from "good idea" to "good game".

But every time I visit here, I can feel that GC2 itch creeping up on me. I suspect I'll have to cave when the final release hits. Being able to play with (hopefully) well-balanced tech trees, the metaverse, and a good AI... I get all excited just thinking about it.

*Zing!* I love it ;)

Well said - I want to see what sort of fight these non-PBoD Thalans Draginol was showing us can put up. Intrigued by the possibilities.

The Arnorian ships were always ment to be 'crystaline'...I dont know where the 'albino space squids' from the DL intro came from  :)

Maybe they were the last line of defence after all those ships were destroyed.

The real question is: are we going to get those as parts to play with in the ship editor? :P

2. I'm no threat
3. Because I know deep down you guys are alright. With maybe the exception of Brad.
4. Please?

It's going to be a turn based land based fantasy strategy game.  And that's all we're allowed to say.  :)
