Sweet.

Now are no words to describe how happy I am over this news. O wait, splendiferous.

THANK YOU!

Want to get my hands on the beta soon.

9494 damage though?

I dunno, did you see the size of that guy's cuticles?

LOVE the changes for tactical combat. 

also...9k damage... holy poop.

Lol.  I was thinking the same thing too. Perhaps he got weakness cast on him?

Anyway, that looked pretty cool. The graphics of those big bad beasties look really good too.

Argghh...more! more!

MhhhhMMMMmmmm particle fire swords !!!

- Flaming swords and glowing staffs - fuck yeah. Hope there's a smart implementation here so we can use the effects editor to make up our own stuff. Also effects on all the creatures (fire on fire snake, green glowing dust on the huge elemental lord, plague cloud on the little doggies).

- Units designed with "traits", as well as (magic) weapons and armor. No mention of mounts!

- No more team-based order of movement

- Prone? Tied in with armor, see a guy kneeling down.

- Over 9000

I hope the AI can use this stuff.

the new creatures look good

Now we are talking epic game.

Whilst I'm still disappointed that still seem to consist of just a handful of soldiers (at least at this point...) the design of those monsters, especially the elemental lord or whatever it is called is absolutely awesome!
