...and let me guess...it will include some kind of an update that will not be provided to those who bought early access on Epic. Stardock and Wardell screwed everyone over like this with Gal Civ IV.

Oh, hell. I just bought Sins2 on Epic and NOW I find out about this?

We went over the latest news and then dived into Port Said. We finished it off with a blast, with fighting right to the very end. The Angry Mobs threw a wrench into fighting into the city itself, which turned out to be fun, but not nearly as fun as our assault south to the southern town along the canal. It was a messy assault, but quite successful considering our infantry definitely out classes the Egyptians.

I found it interesting that steam needs devs to declare A.I. derived content:

" Originally posted by Fyst:
As required by steam at the bottom of the store page:

AI GENERATED CONTENT DISCLOSURE
The developers describe how their game uses AI Generated Content like this:

This game used AI to help quickly iterate through designs for some UI elements using our own artwork as a baseline.

This statement applies to that particular image (it was seeded from own artwork and then a lot of hand painting as well.) It's also not complete as we need to include more ships from Vasari, Advent, and some other touch ups before the next major update this summer.

Edit for clarification: the ships and background elements and some of the character elements have zero Ai generation."

I hope not as I really respect these developers.

Sins2 out this summer on steam unfortunately if you are from the southern hemisphere this means your get it six months later than the north does.

Wait. What? Six months later? I didn't know there were delays like that for regions.

I was just joking as I thought the Canadians who developed this game would be more inclusive, but instead chose to describe a release date via weather patterns that excluded the lower half of the world. ;)

I like playing the Modern Campaigns from WDS.  No history to guide your play and you can use the strategy that you think would work best. Playing a PBEM game from Danube '85 that is the entire campaign from Denmark to Austria.  Right now the Leopards and M1's of NATO are stopping me cold in places but to do so they are having to concentrate which has left other forces room to roam.  Going to be an intersting game.  Also playing the full campaign from Korea '85. I'm playing as the NK and we have torn the ROK fortifications on the cease fire line apart and have encircled and destroyed a lot of troops.  I've been adamant about finding and destroying Allied artillery as they are great killers in this game.  Racing against the clock to keep troops reformed and rested but still moving forward to get as much ground as possible for the American reinforcements start pouring in.  Of course I'll have the opportunity to take Chinese reinforcements later on.

Honestly, I was always surprised that the refund policy was as generous as it was. I think I have only used it twice.

Fun fact: The CEO of Take Two doubled his compensation earlier this year (or was it last year?)
