Battle Worlds: Kronos (hex TBS) KS

[b0rsuk]

One week left for this Kickstarter project. It's a turn-based strategy game on hexes, inspired by games like * General, Battle Isle, Advance Wars. It looks promising.

No base building, it's scenario-based. Will feature a campaign, challenge scenarios, multiplayer, including PBEM, a map editor and a random map generator. Check out the project page for videos and extra info.

Last time I checked, Wesnoth had 2D graphics. This game has very pretty and well-animated 3D. You can see it in motion in this video:

And here's a cinematic. If the project is funded, we can expect more. They've made Book of Unwritten Tales, and are very capable as far as visuals go.

So year, it's totally like Wesnoth except there's no randomness at all :-). You can read about movement points, combat here:

Looks interesting, but since it's funded anyway I'll rather hold off until the game is released and some reviews are available. Their game "The Book of Unwritten Tales" was indeed awesome, but at the same time it was a very different genre, a point-and-click adventure.
