We hope so, but we are just back from the event, so no idea when more articles will appear as they need some time to write them ;-).

thanks for the links.


about the last one:
i stumbled upon an interesting sentence in the google-translated text:
"In general, there will be no over-unity, which makes everything flat, what it gets in his sights. "

so we cannot overstrength units, can we?

this is the original statement:
"Überhaupt wird es keine Übereinheit geben, die alles platt macht, was ihr vor die Flinte kommt. "

any German speakers are welcomed to properly translate this :D

Surely you know the German word Übermensch?

An "Übereinheit" would be a "super unit". Overstengthening is in the game though.

Hmm, looks like this guy is in beta and he made his own screenshots.

Definitely not the Varese build! So we have a moll... as he is assuming some stuff that is missing we showed and told clearly about at the press conference... this is breach of NDA ...

We're approaching final beta stages which means adding bigger groups of testers in every new phase. So you should have a fair chance of getting in soon.
