Ive sunk around 450 hours into AOW3 so far vs Ai and/or my brother. It was my GOTY last year and i encourge anyone with an interest in fantasy Turn based warfare to pick it up.

The main additions are the Tigran and Frostling races, the Necromancer class and the 3 new specialisations. Other goodies like race goverment, dwellings and spells are also coming too.

Kill and resurrect if old.

Edit: Mac and Linx support also on the way.

AoW is such a great series! I really enjoyed AoW3 and will be picking this up, it looks great.

More music from Michiel van den Bos is always welcome. I love his compositions.

Excellent, just enough time to work Bloodborne out of my system. Can't wait to return to my 2014 GOTY.

Bring on the Tigrans and Frostlings!

If you guys haven't played the Golden Realms expansion (or god forbid haven't actually played AoW3 yet) now's the time to get caught up!

Finally! I've been waiting for them to announce a release date for ages. Speculation had been that the expansion would ship on March 31, so it's a bit of a bummer I'll have to wait an extra two weeks, but I'll take what I can get.

I've been playing many hours of Age of Wonders III: Golden Realms lately in preparation for this new entry, and the game just keeps getting better and better every time I delve into it. And based on these new features, I'll be getting hundreds of more hours out of this thing before it's all said and done.

Now I just need to find out when they'll be releasing the 1.5 beta patch for early testing. The patch itself is mainly a balance and patch (and it'll modify and add a couple units to certain classes/races), much like the 1.4 patch that came before it. 1.4 shipped concurrently with the Golden Realms expansion, and 1.5 is set to ship alongside this one, but Triumph typically makes these things optionally available for testing on Steam a couple weeks before they officially get released. I'm hoping this will happen soon, as I'm looking forward to the Warrior class potentially getting better scout units, among a few other things I think will be included.

Today Triumph's launching an Open Beta for v1.5 of the game:
http://ageofwonders.com/open-beta-for-update-v1-5-kicks-off/

While this Open Beta doesn't contain the Eternal Lords features it contains plenty of new features and fixes, and it's the first time Age of Wonders III is playable on Mac and Linux.

Key features include Vassals, AI & Race improvements, and an all new multiplayer mode (PBEM) which allows you to play multiple games at your own time, and take your turn when you're ready instead of having to be with someone in a multiplayer game for an exteded amount of time. Make sure to check these out and have fun!

Nice! I was planning to get the game in April, but now I think I may get it this weekend...

In case anyone's unaware, Age of Wonders 3 has an OT hidden deep within the community subforum.

Stuff like this makes me regret going GOG for AoW3. Hopefully GOG Galaxy isn't left out in the cold when the inevitable
