Re: Mom 2 !?
Foregive me, but I really think Age of Wonders is MUCH better. I've played both part 1 and 2 and Shadow Magic quite a lot. I'm quite fond on it.
I've tried the HOMM serie too, but it was inferior to AOW.
All hail to AOW!
Did you know that the lead programmer and quite a few other members of the development team were Dutch fellows? Hehe...

Re: Mom 2 !?
I don't recall the original MOM, but if it comes out, I'll probably buy it (assuming my computer meets the hardware requirements, which it hasn't for some of the newer graphics-heavy games lately). I did belong to Stardock, but can't afford to renew it. Heck, I haven't been on there for so long due to not getting the opportunity to log onto the internet at home, I'm not even sure of my status on there. But it does sound interesting. Hope it does come out.

Re: Mom 2 !?
I felt that "Age of Wonders:Shadow Magic" fell short of "Master of Magic". It was definetly the holder of the "closest yet" award but I think the multiplayer in it ruined the soloplay fun in MoM.
Im will be glad if Brad gets to do MoM2. He has already seen the discussions on the strategic newsGroups and has agreed that MoM2 needs to just be MoM+ with a better AI. For AI I think Brad is a good choice. If MoM3 comes out with a (long and painful) effort at making it multiplayer then that will be fine but MoM2 really needs to avoid that pitfall which ruined all the previous efforts to make one.

Re: Mom 2 !?
GalCiv was quite lame compared to SE4 in the field of complexity (judging from player's comments). Hard to belive that Stardock will be able to bring MoM II to its ancestor's level. Many tried, all failed. I call it "Simtex magic".

Re: Mom 2 !?
Well, there are several freeware projects on scourgeforge.net, i guess a few of them will be good, and maybe one or two really good 
Just a matter of time. |

Re: Mom 2 !?
Ive been keeping an eye on them but most of them are trying to add MP which is bogging them down. PLEASE someone just do a MoM+ very slight upgrade with no major changes.
And a PC Version of the Magic Realm board game
While we are on nostalgia there is a beta test call for old M.U.L.E. players on the new demo for HoRSE
