Just found out about this project:

Stardock has also been developing a new fantasy strategy game franchise. It has been described on the Internet as “Not-MOM” (as in, Not Master of Magic). It’s a turn-based strategy game that supports random map generation, integrated modding, city building, unit design, tactical combat, multiplayer, incredibly powerful magical spells, and much more.

It is scheduled to go into beta prior to June 2009.

...with concept art for next major 4X game...

(little, small resolution) concept art included.

"major"? Like in tripleA major? Anybody else heard of this project?

I'd imagine it'll be like Dominions 3, except that you can actually control your units.

Sounds good.

There is already a news item in this in the TCancer section.

Missed it. I see it now.

I've been following the tidbits of info about it for years. I'll be prereleasing this and, if Stardock keep their policy, that'll mean I'll be able to play the beta. I had lots of fun with the Galciv 2 expansion betas...

 

[Burning Bridges]

Good idea. I have Galciv2 and both addons, but did not have time to play the betas.

Random maps?

Tactical combat?

Can I give them my money now so it gets here faster?
