Irconclad Games, the creators of the ever popular Sins of a Solar Empire have unveiled their new project – Sins of a Dark Age!

“Years ago Ironclad began with 5 people and the ambitious goal of creating a unique mix of real-time and 4x strategy. After years of sweating it out in a basement and being constantly rejected by publishers, we finally struck a deal, got an office, expanded to 10 people and released the highly acclaimed Sins of a Solar Empire. Fans and critics loved it so we kept the content coming. While we love science fiction, we also love fantasy so we started working in parallel on a new vision that would require new technology and a radically new game design. After a ton of iteration and experimentation and a lot of hard work from some amazing teammates (we are up to 12 now) we finally feel ready to introduce you to "Sins of a Dark Age".

Sins of a Dark Age is a totally new and unique strategy experience that combines elements of the Traditional RTS and the Action RTS. We took the best parts of each, innovated on both, and added our own twists and turns resulting in something unlike any other strategy game. Despite all this we still feel it is remarkably accessible for new and veteran players alike.”

I am really sold on this Idea. I loved sins when I learned about its combo of different RTS systems. This is werid combo but I love moba games. Minons being smart... who'd though? That turns the whole last hit farming meta of MOBA out the window because the the minons could just all focus you and a hero pops out of nowhere to finish you off. Good change indeed.

I wonder if including the word "Sins" in the name was a marketing decision to build off some of the success of SOSE.

Whoa!  This is a Free-to-Play game!  I wonder how they're going to make money off of it.

How does the game play compare to SOSE?  Is it like a 4x-RTS on land or a completely different type of game?

Its a LoL/DOTA and RTS hybrid. They're going to make money off charging for cosmetic stuff like with TF2. They said all things that affect the game will be unlockable with in game points.
