FANTASY GENERAL

This, I thought, would have reared its' unbelievably AWESOME self right here by now {8^(

I want to shamelessly beg for it to come soon!!!

Keep up the great work GoG.

You're not the first to ask for it, and you probably won't be the last. :)

Oh I have. Thank you very much for the links though. Very kind of you! C'mon FG ;)

Yep Phaidox. I saw those threads but I want to keep mentioning it in a new thread just because I think it deserves every one of them! ;)

I think it's under Ubisoft's umbrella (since they bought SSI), and we have Ubisoft aboard but we haven't seen a classic release from them in 6+ months which is rather worrying to me.
Ah yes, I bought a copy of Star General years ago. Presumably Panzer General and Fantasy General are better games?
@tfishell Hmmm....heard something about their acquisition but did not pay attention. I was hoping Slitherine would get a hold of SSI. :(

@TheCycoONE Yes Star General is from the same series. If I remember correctly the answer to your question is yes. Star General was actually considered the worst of the three. Panzer General got more fanfare because it is historical. My personal favorite of the three is Fantasy General. It is still the best TBS Fantasy game I have ever played.

Some of the newer titles I have tried are:

Fantasy Kommander - closest thing to Fantasy General I have seen in quite some time.

Pandoras Contact - More like Fallen Enchantress with a different coat of paint.

Fallen Enchantress Legendasry Heroes - A pretty awesome intimidating game.
Looks awesome, I voted. Thanks, OP.
Voted looks good :)
Thanks for your votes :D
I think it might be abandonware. I know I've downloaded a copy from such a site.
Get Fantasy Wars, it's a remake, it is so good I prefer it over the original now.
There's Battle for Wesnoth, and it's free.
We need ALL SSI games here.
