I didn't even know about Dukes of War. Too bad about it being cancelled, it looked like a nice remake of Fantasy General (I can't imagine they didn't mention it as an inspiration; even the buttons look similar).

"Double Fine presents"? That doesn't bode well. :P On a more serious note, looks interesting but I'm gonna wait and see.

Aren't DF a publisher now though? Can't they just publish this game themselves if they like it so much?

Episodic content is what poisons the well. It's such a terrible model to develop a game even Valve got bent trying it. The fact they need $75,000 to produce one episode should be raising eyebrows. That immediately is a red flag that the project will be in a constant state of jeopardy.
