Ganni1987: Hmm, Age of Wonders 3 sounded good, but then I realised that
All I know is I need a beefier, mire ram packed rig to run it properly. I would get memory crashes quite frequently.

So with the risk of repeating myself... Has anyone tried BlackGuards? Is it worth it?

BillyMaysFan59: Hmmm Banished has been on my wishlist for a good while.... I'll think about it :D

IAmSinistar: Get it. It's detailed, deep, and brutal, just like the subject matter.
All right, I'll get it :D

EDIT: bought.

Be careful, this game will kick you in the balls the first few tries. Really hard. Maybe turn off catastrophes at the beginning, it can really crush your mood :).

Also, check out the banished forum from the dev:

for mods and useful tips and stuff :)

Have great fun!

Good man. Let us know how you get on with it. And expect your whole village to die. Many times.

Maxvorstadt: Hmm, Age of Wonders 3 sounded good, but then I realised that it`s crippleware, so I won`t buy it.

JudasIscariot: What do you mean by "crippleware"?
I mean, if I read the reviews right, some parts of the game are not available without registration, so the game is crippled without online activation!

Oh, I've been waiting for a price like this for Blackguards. Good thing I did not jump on the other promo and I still have some gaming budget :D

And maybe I'll get Raven also.

Btw, what would be the time required to beat Blackguards?

I've asked around and the consensus I heard was a poor man's HOMM. But if you're into those type of games, go for it.

The only part that requires an account with Triumph Studios is the multiplayer portion but I believe one of the patches for the game added a multiplayer over VPN option so that you could play the game that way.

The single player portion of the game is fully featured and no part of the single player game is hidden behind anything.

If I like it, I'll change my forum title to "Buy Banished!" :-)

Except that the two have nothing in common, save the fact that they're turn-based ?

I think GOG should add the mod toolkit for Banished as an extra. :)
