The Kings are hosting a Tav party as usual. Be there, as usual! :-) Also see the message about an Angel leaving...I'm confused though, he will be back? Color blindness is also in evidence at the site. Snow way is my vote!
You might just be in time to hear Bruce Shelley speak on AI. Dash over to Age of Kings for the details. Cherub Nojd is now the third cherub to grace the Wonders site. Welcome my friend! Drop me an e-note if you need some tips on being a newsie. Don't get too caught up in gawking at those marvels now. :-) In case you haven't figured it out, that screenshot is the latest and, I must agree with Park at Empire Earth Heaven, the greatest so far!
Angel Thunder reminds those beta patch testers to have it all wrapped up by July 1st or else! :-) Angel ET at Cossacks Heaven has just posted news about a patch and Cherub Weezul has info on the expansion pack!
Dark Angel has told one of the Angels at Heaven that the weekend to watch is that of July 14th! The rest is pretty garbled, as usual, but you all know the Darkster enough to feel that this is a biggie! Stay tuned because I think that I can force more out of that monstrosity that's all but a myth... . :-)
Back at Age of Kings, the Thundster has some rad info on dynamics and AI! No intelligence needed artificial or otherwise to figure out what that's all about. :-)
This just in: Cherub bobT has just been added to the long list of Zeus' gods and he's not exactly lounging about. He's written something that should both guide and entertain. Do do the check! Welcome bobTster and enjoy the ambrosia that is ZH!
Not sure which server(s) was (were) having problems yesterday but I couldn't get an update out to you. Things seem to be fine and I apologize for the inconvenience. Judging from reports at Age of Kings, I'm not the only one who's outtasync. Please do see if you can help the ES crew out. I'm sure they'll appreciate it highly. On a franker note, at the same site you can find all you need to know about a particular civ. Frankly, I've been wondering about them myself... . :-)
Today is the first day of the life of the Conquerors Contest hosted by The Zone. As always, Thunder has the details at Age of Kings. Boy, did he ever thrash that little puppy!
Cossacks Heaven is informing us that there are now 5 missions that you can walk through! The Parkster has some new screenshots for you at Empire Earth Heaven and the radically redesigned site of the Punksters is luring you into all kinds of forums.
Angel Park is showing off the future of Empire Earth at the site. It's so nice when developers and fan sites cooperate. The Zeus fans may want to make note of the fact that Poseidon is very particular about the type of fish that swim in his sea. You know where to click.
Thunder over at Age of Kings Heaven relates how bolshy bears can be your town's complete undoing in Age of Mythology. It is pointed out that luring a bear in to do what your soldier may be afraid to even contemplate could have its drawbacks... . There's news of a new review of Cossacks at the site. Hmmm, that reminds me, better get to playing, eh, playtesting that game again for the review. :-)
Thunder has got skins to scare you at Age of Kings Heaven (maybe Age of Mythology Heaven would be more appropriate :-)) so don't miss the opportunity to get the skinny on them. And now for a delayed message from Angel Dimitrios:
"The winners of "The Life of Khan: History Essay Contest" are finally being announced. We apologize for the long wait to find out who the winners were, but they are here now, and I'd like to Congratulate mpgalvin for his first place essay, "Khan101."
A congratulations goes out to lestat for his second place essay, "THE WRATH OF GENGHIS KHAN." Both those essays are displayed here. I'd also like to thank every one who entered; it was a very very close contest."
Thanks for the tip Angel D and kudos to the winners and all entrants!
Make sure you do the 'patch' haste RR is referring to asap! As the old user education lead that I used to be, I love the pedagogics behind Thunder's little patch screen dumps. Haven't had the chance to play Cossacks again due to little medical problems that popped up during my week-long summer vacation but that shouldn't stop you from shaping up in the formations article recently submitted there. I do love the options available and the sight of my differentiated units wheeling to give battle to any dastards in their way.
Arrr, dem Pirates shaaarr do pose a problem ar two matey! Keep on fightin' dem bones dat be crossed RR!
Ensemble Studios have just released their beta patch for AOK:TC. Head over to Age of Kings Heaven post haste for all relevant information, and news on how you can give feedback on the patch to ES themselves.
I finally got my hands on a copy of Cossacks yesterday, and have been valiantly plugging away trying to get somewhere, but without a whole lot of success. Those darn pirates in the second map of the Caribbean campaign sure are tough nuts to crack. Looks like I'll be very glad of the articles posted over at Cossacks Heaven's Academy .
If you prefer TBS to RTS, then Age of Wonders Heaven is the place to be, especially if you want to find out some information about the Draconian race in the upcoming AOW2. Draconian? Hmm...I wonder if they're related to Angel Draco...
Well, following on from yesterdays revamping of SCNPunks, we have yet more lurvely eye candy for you to feast your eyes upon today, as Age of Kings Heaven posts its last installment of E3 pics, taken at this year's event in Los Angeles by Angel Zen.
If that's not enough to get you going, then how about this - the Zeus expansion pack went gold a couple of days ago, and will soon find its way onto store shelves near you! As always, stay tuned to Zeus Heaven for all relevant information.
Check out SCN Punk's completely new site people! I love the cool tones and ease of finding info. An excellent redesign Punkster Dude! You guys rule. On an almost equal note: more E3 pics at Age of Kings Heaven. Who is that sweety in the pic with T? Got something ta tell us, Dude? :-)
Soon these two geographical entities will be having it out on the Zone. Details at the site of Kings. Lots of new pics of Age of Mythology and E3 are available there too. Well, sorry about the erractic behaviour of updating lately. Wife had to have an emergency gall bladder operation. She's doing well now but it was a nasty time. Hope to be back to full operation capacity this week.
