"As I understand from your communication, Mr. Engle, you're on the brink of self-destruction. May I shake your hand? A brilliant idea! I speak as one who has destroyed himself a score of times.  I am, Mr. Engle, a veteran corpse. We are all corpses here! This rendezvous is one of the musical graveyards of the town. Caters to zombies hopping around with dead hearts and price tags for souls." - Angels Over Broadway

It does look good, it will be another temptation that I must resist.

I'm in on this. ATM, the distinction between stock and the new expansion is pretty low. They haven't activated a lot of the elements and the only playable side are the factions for the Terran group. Par for the Stardock beta - more will open up as months go by.
