Will more testers be added before final release?

I've been waiting to get into the Beta. This just makes it tougher. Nice job.

Not quite, more akin to games like Civilization, but much deeper. Can you combine armies? For example infantry and Cavalry into a combined force. How about generals? Can you assign a general to an army? Each unit is individual, you can't combine them into armies, and there are no generals So units ...

When is the beta starting?

. As for the battles, they are played out in a typical 4X fashion but units have a lot of details and statistics to them, so you need to tailor your strategy on the units at your disposal as well as the geography of where you're fighting. Does that mean that the battles themselves are outside playe...

So is it safe to say this is like Rome Total War but with turn-based battles?

I signed up on Saturday. Do I need to apply again?

Sounds good.

So has the first wave gone out?

I was able to go back to the skirmish game I was playing and got one turn in before another crash. This is with today's beta patch, btw. === Report === [ EXCEPTION: FormatException: Index (zero based) must be greater than or equal to zero and less than the size of the argument list. ] System.String....

You can't see individual H&M for the villages, although you do get an indication from the flag being flown in each village (US, ANA< Militia, or Taliban). You do, however, know the average H&M of the 10 villages, how much it goes up or down each turn and why. It's the average that determines...

I forget whether it was determined to be a bug or WAD, but the price of infantry still doesn't go up in this scenario.

Yes. You'll get a Steam key

Thanks again, Johan.

Has the beta actually started? I applied a week ago but haven't heard anything.

Yeah, hung is the wrong word. And selecting it from the skirmish menu worked too, thanks.

I tried to set up my first multiplay scenario with a friend last night. After he accepted the challenge I got an email telling me my first turn was waiting for me. After examining the units I hit the check mar expecting to go to the deployment screen, but instead got a message saying that my turn wa...

I can see it in my list of campaigns, but when I select it the game hangs after the loading bar fills up.

I'll go back and see if it's counting properly, but I don't think it is.
