Is it me, or are the only good strategy game releases just expansions
(ie. Beyond the Sword)? Any good 2007 TBS games?

I'm not sure it's really good but "Fantasy Wars" is a turn based wargame
: pretty and simple (in its rules) and (for me) challenging.

Galactic Assault is OK game but nothing to write home about, ie. spectacular. I finished campaign. Heroes 5 expansion is OK as I've heard. Triumph Studios should return to turn based games and make Age of Wonders 3 and leave makin arcade RPG to Playstation horde of developers (like those guys who did Folklore, wow PS3 has cool graphics, where is Koei to make another ROTK or PTO game with that graphics On topic, maybe there is some other games but... Maybe Jagged Alliance 3 would turn out to be great game, soldiers looks amazing (that is 2008 release I think) Mario >> Stay informed about: Turn based strategy games this year

What's that now? 6 or 7 nations added since Dom3's release? Up to 70 playable nations now? Plus hundreds more monsters, hundreds more magic sites, etc. And thats not counting what the player mods are offering. And still no game-killer strategies for it. Definetly long-lifed TBS game. And didnt GalCiv just release a new version or upgrade or something? Gandalf Parker >> Stay informed about: Turn based strategy games this year

> Know anything about Fantasy Wars? > > http://www.gamespot.com/pc/strategy/fantasywars/index.html Played only a demo. Some say that Fantasy General is spiritual ancestor to this game. Another game - nothing to write home about Some like it very much. Mario >> Stay informed about: Turn based strategy games this year

Without doubt a gaming media that does a feature about "what the best games are according to guys", and then totally makes up the answers, would deserve more plause. >> Stay informed about: Turn based strategy games this year

If Jonah really did write for a gaming site his articles would not be much fun to read, consisting as they would of half a sentence and a single link.

Galactic Assault is a new game from the people that made Massive Assault. It features TB sci-fi combat at the platoon level or so, check out the demo. Gameplay is sort of Massive Assault mated with Panzer General. http://www.galacticassault.com/ >> Stay informed about: Turn based strategy games this year

Including a new Kings Bounty Pretty Soldier something or other AD. A tentacle hentai game combined with X-com. $20, so I tried it. Not very long, but not that bad. If you have a handheld, then there is the upcoming Warhammer 40K game for the DS/PSP. There's a PSP demo which is very very nice. Somewhat more primitive than X-com in terms of your squad, but plays very much like the original Laser Squard or Breach games, complete with destructable scenary. >> Stay informed about: Turn based strategy games this year
