If you are fascinated by Ancient Warfare, I would surely give this game a try. I would not be put off by some of the remarks seen here or on other boards. I have not had any problems running this game. No crashes whatsoever. There have been some complaints about map scrolling, menus and game play, but these things have more or less been sorted out in the first patch. And even more will be added/changed in the second one. Not that all of this needed to be fixed, but it was only that the developer listened to the players and wanted to adapt his game to some of their wishes. I am sure that more will be updated later.... I have loved this game from day one, and think it is one of the more interesting new titles released by HPS in a long time...
Do you remember how John Tillers earliest games were? BG Bulge/Ardennes any? BG Gettysburg ver. 1.0? And what about East Front? Were these winners out of the box? No, they weren't, but they are all considered classics today
And about the graphics.... I haven't seen any 3D graphics in previous HPS games that are better than the ones in Punic, but this of course comes down to taste...
So give it a try, Gasbag, and I will gladly play a test game with you :smoke:
