The portals connecting the shattered islands of Eo start to collapse. The whole world is in panic and despair.

[url=http://www.gog.com/en/gamecard/spellforce_2_dragon_storm]Spellforce 2: Dragon Storm is a refreshing “RPG meets Fantasy Strategy” combo, in which the RPG elements just enrich the awesome RTS experience. The GOG.com version of Dragon Storm is a stand-alone expansion to the second part of the game.

Chaos reigns over the mythical land of Eo and the Shaikans investigate the problem. Upon closer inspection they reveal ancient ruins of the long forgotten first race to walk the plains of Eo: the Shapers. Once the rulers of the world, the Shapers discovered the Essence of Magic, and the struggle to control the essence led to a civil war and the apparent extinction of their race. Shaikans awaken one of these ancients, the Creator, and now chaos spreads. The only ally the Shaikans can muster is the race that once saved Eo from the Shapers threat the Dragons, exiled long ago. This add-on expands the universe by adding the Sheikan faction, and also adds a new campaign, more loot, spells, and a complex crafting system. Revisit familiar grounds, meet friends from your past adventures in Eo (incl. The Soulbearer or Flink McWinter), and (of course) save the entire world from doom.

DrIstvaan: Well, we can't be sure, but hopefully there is...
There's one scheduled for Thursday. And it's not an RPG (or, for that matter, an RPG / strategy hybrid).

Whilst I'm glad this has been released (I have wanted a full version of Spellforce 2 for a few years now), I'm going to skip this for the $9.99 pricetag. I'll wait for a year or so until it appears in a sale. One of the great things about GOG is the ability to get the Gold versions of the games here, whilst I understand JoWood is short of cash, I hope this doesn't continue.

TParis: Bad price.
Next time you "review" a game, it would be more helpful to talk about more than just the price, and give people an idea of what you think of the game itself. Just a suggestion.

I think this might be a sign of things to come with EA :(

Well it's the same price as every other digital distribution network, plus DRM free and some extras, so I don't understand the issue there. I've wanted to check out the spellforce series for a while now. I'll probably wait until it's on sale like I always do for games, but I'm glad GOG has this.

Thank you!

missed the wishing well by 9 minutes. Oh well can't be online all the time. I guess price wise it depends on how big the stand alone expansion is, if it is game sized them might be an ok deal, if a bit short well then less so.

Kola256: Another RPG Game... :(

What about tycoon games (Theme Hospital, Pharaoh), racing (Need for Speed)? I'm a casual player. :)
What?

Excuse me, but have you been visiting GOG lately?

Here's a list of latest games relesed on GOG (after Witcher 2):

Spellforce 2: Dragon Storm - strategy - rpg meets strategy isn't rpg for rpg players
Heroes Chronicles - strategy
Litil Divil - action/adventure/puzzle
Magic Carpet - shooter/action
Crusader: No Remorse - action
Sid Meier's Alpha Centauri - strategy
Wing Commander: Privateer - shooter/action
Dungeon Keeper - strategy/action
Ultima Underworld 1+2 - YEAH, that's the only RPG released on GOG since Witcher 2
Broken Sword: The Smoking Mirror - Remastered - adventure
Rayman 2: The Great Escape - action/adventure
Spellforce 2: Shadow Wars - strategy - rpg meets strategy isn't rpg for rpg players


So it's high time for another RPG release soon.

Ho YES please! ;-)

I already own two collectors edition of NWN2 one lawful good and one chaotic evil, I also own two Storm of Zeir expansion packs and one Mask of the betrayer. I have two brothers and three computers, so I also bought NWN here on GoG last week in order for us to play together(Each NWN2 collectors edition came with one NWN1 complete).

did anyone complain about stand alone expansions when Age of Wonders shadows wars came out, just curious.

Sad to read some of user review at the game page. It isn't helpful at all.
