Neoseeker.com has put up an interview with Stardock’s Brad Wardell about Elemental, including discussions about Modding, Tactics, and more. “ The game is very community driven.

The Community often overestimates the effort to do some things and underestimates the effort to do other things.  I’ve seen the same guy who would ask for us to have an “option...

Gamasutra has posted an interview today with Stardock’s Brad Wardell about the upcoming PC game, Elemental: War of Magic, and it’s partnership with Random House to create a novel written by Brad as well. “ What prompted that?

Today we have another published preview of Elemental: War of Magic, this time from the crew at 1up.com! “Elemental: War of Magic is One More Side of Dungeons & Dragons If Dungeon Keeper lets you play as one of D&D's evil overlords, then Elemental lets you play as the king (or queen).

IGN.com got a chance to chat with the Stardock team while in San Francisco while at GDC 2010, and they have published a preview of Elemental: War of Magic. “I'll dispense with the usual opener here. I won't talk about Stardock's stellar reputation as a game developer, or its principled stance as a publisher.
