Thank you. Really surprised at the lack of "official" news... nothing on the HPS site either.

Their press release email wasn't overly detailed, however to be fair - it pretty much said it was coming out 1st November, and had a packet of screenshots. I don't know that those along say all that much, so I just put up their cover image -and did it because Paul's a good guy who gave me a fair bit of content for his series some years ago.



From their email:

If I buy it is there anyone around to play it?

Is the engine the same as the other games in the series, if not can we expect an update for the entire series?

Great question.

From the HPS website "In terms of presentation and functions, Bronze Age Wars contains all the features of previous Ancient Warfare games. So players familiar with the series can jump right in"

Wow, had no idea this series was still being worked on, great news! AND I see a map editor was released some time ago, guess I was asleep at the helm.

Can anyone whom purchased share what nations are available in game? Obviously Hittites Assyrians Egyptians from the screen shots… what about Mycenaeans etc?

I hope we will see further games east of 1 AD , crisis of the 3rd century, Foederate Rome , Julian’s campaigns. We will need a special graphic for Xenobia!

Cheers!
