Michael, much like my T1ANN3 – 2, is a hero on the battlefield and will provide buffs and ordinance commands. My mission was to track down and kill Michael Valentine, a commander for The Vanguard, which are a race of mechanized humans that include units such as power armored soldiers, tanks, and bi-pedal mechs. The character designs are fantastic and pretty disturbing seeing these Frankenstein creatures pieced together with robot parts. In the demo I was able to play as The Assembly faction, who are a cyborg-zombie race that reproduce by patching themselves up with body parts and machinery from the battlefields. Not to say that I was completely lost or wouldn’t be able to figure it out, but the depth of this strategy game is vast. There was so much to it between races, factions, customizations, general management, combat, encounters, and so many other nuanced things that it was a lot to take in for a beginner. It would be almost impossible for me to detail and remember everything that went on in this demo. You travel to one of the many lost worlds of the old empire, where you will find many marvels among the remnants of this once great civilization.Įach faction has completely unique units and each will have their bonuses, weaknesses, and element uses. As one of the heirs to the shattered Galactic Empire known as the Star Union, you emerge from a cosmic dark age to craft a new future. I found myself leaving the demo quite surprised and intrigued.Īge of Wonders: Planetfall is the new strategy game from Triumph Studios, creators of the critically acclaimed Age of Wonders and Overlord series, bringing all the exciting strategic turn-based combat and in-depth empire building of its predecessors to space in an all-new Sci-Fi setting. Luckily, Age of Wonders: Planetfallencapsulates the depth of the Age of Wonders strategy management, with combat more like XCOM. The strategy games I enjoy most focus more on the combat with some base/unit management and tinkering games like XCOM are much more my speed. I have dabbled with Total War: Warhammer a bit, but it never grabbed me. I must admit I have never played an Age of Wonders title as I’m not the biggest strategy fan when it comes to base building, base and unit management, and slow tinkering.
