  • Yeah, you can definitely tell with the footage. The battles look adequate as a compromise. The same people who were hyping themselves up for this are now crying that it doesn’t “look” like TW but I have to ask what do they expect? Obviously you can’t take a formula built for bronze age through early modern battles at the latest and just slap it onto a science fantasy setting where units are grouped into loose “squads” and everyone and their granny has a shoota-type weapon.

    I’m actually most interested by the campaign mechanics since it looks like that’s where most of the innovation will happen, particularly with how star sectors and systems work as opposed to the galaxy being one big map (so that ending the turn won’t be followed by a 20 minute break even at the early game).
