Grow stronger turn, by turn.

Eador: Genesis, an impressive turn-based strategy with RPG elements, that sends you on a quest to conquer a shattered realm, is now available on GOG.com, for only $4.79! That's 20% off, this week only!

The world is no longer whole. All that remains are the islands of existence drifting aimlessly through the endless ocean of emptiness and oblivion. This broken realm houses many aspiring despots, hell-bent on uniting the floating shards of land under their own rule. There was, however, no single monarch who could achieve that feat since the time of the cataclysm. That won't stop you from trying, of course. Is it because you're even more hungry for power and wealth then your opponents? Or maybe you see a higher purpose in domination over Eador? Maybe you believe, that the world united under the rule of one strong leader will finally begin to heal? As one of the Masters, you're free to exercise your will however you see fit. But know this: history will judge you.

Eador: Genesis delivers a turn-based strategy experience inspired by the classics of the genre. It's a multi-layered game, equally stressing the importance of your kingdom's development and management, and your tactical battlefield abilities. There's also a strongly accented RPG element, that goes so well with the imaginatively crafted fantasy setting of the game. With over 170 structures to build, 80 magic spells to master, and 70 kinds of units to lead into the battle, each with its own goals and defining characteristic--this title will keep you busy for many long evenings.

Looking for a well-polished turn-based strategy game that's immersive, enthralling, and deep? Get Eador: Genesis, for only $4.79! That's 20% off until the promo ends on Tuesday, December 11, at 10:59AM GMT.

Lodium: Never heard of it either, but seems interesting enough.
It seams that russian games dont appear that often in the west, well at least not in Norway.
Only other game i remember at the moment is Tetris.

JuriJ: Wow, and what about at least such titles as: Silent Storm, King's Bounty, STALKER?
We've just had a big sale on war and strategy games made either in Russia itself or former Soviet Republics.

I really want Rage of Mages on GOG! I spent a lot of time on that game when I was younger. Would be one of the very few instant buys for me.

yes, yes and yes! I have both on CDs but I couldn't install them anymore (if I recall correctly...)

No hugs for Evil Islands?

BTW, STALKER is from Ukraine.
Normally I don't have much interest in TBS (i prefer RTS) but this one looks good. I hope he doesn't have time-based missions like the HOMM series...

grviper: No hugs for Evil Islands?
I hate Evil Islands... got the game on a CD from a gaming magazine but it was a buggy version that kept crushing once I've reached a certain stage of the game... wanted to play (and finish) it so hard but couldn't :(

towerbooks3192: And my usual question

Replayability and Random Map generator? Is it like HoMM?
There is a map generator when you start the game but there's so much content in the game that you may not need a map generator.

It's HoMM...on steroids and Mentats.

Edit for editing's sake :P

First time I see JuriJ posting on the forums, so let me thank you for the excellent support you're doing.
Also, 2 out of 3 games you mention are already on GOG.com, does that mean we can expect the 3rd one as well?

There is an RMG bro.
Somehow HoMM clones are the games I'm appreciating the least because HoMM 3 will always remain the pinnacle of this genre and it's the kind of game you can always return to. :P

Please tell me this is real and in-game and not a seperate map editor. Still pondering if I should get it or not and its pretty tempting. I think I need something along the lines of HoMM but something a bit different and unique

Nice combination of facts and very good question! Would be interested in this, too.

And Eador looks really, really good. Seems to be the kind of game, I like. I think, I'm going to give it a try.

Hesusio: Looks like a pretty blatant Heroes of Might and Magic clone to me. Though I suppose I really shouldn't make that call until I've seen more than twelve screenshots.
It's a totally different animal. I've only played it for about an hour, but apart from the construction menu, combat and high fantasy setting, I am hard pressed to find anything else that models after HOMM. Which is very surprising to me, because I'd thought this was going to be quite similar to HOMM too. The overworld map is best compared to Solium Infernum than HOMM since it's hex-based, and even the combat, while similar to HOMM, has slightly more depth by allowing terrain to affect units' stats.

I'm having fun with it. Only issue I have is the lack of combat animations, but I'm a bit of a graphicsfag in that sense. Apart from that, the art is nice and music is decent fantasy fare, if a bit generic. Would recommend people to buy this, based on first impressions alone. Gonna play some more.
