This could be boring, stupid, or fleeting, but it caught my eye as an interesting concept.

Looks pretty neat. Wonder what the price point will be. If it's like $5 I'll definitely pick it up and give it a whirl. If it gets some steam, it'd be cool if people upload maps like Middle Earth and Westeros.
EDIT: According to the dev:
Quote......$7.99, 10% off for the first week $7.191 The prices for the vast majority of other regions are automatically calculated based on Steam's recommended prices.
Nice find! Looks fun.
There's one like this that I forget the name that's on a smaller scale with orcs and elves and dwarves and you can add demons and undead and watch the plot unfold or interject and say give the elves 1000 more warriors and watch it play out - totally fascinating to watch - I'll keep my eye on this

It's called WorldBox God simulator. That's a neat one too.

That's the one - this looks a little more grown up
If I had the skills and knowledge I've always wanted to do a fantasy war game similar to WitP - that scale, those economics bit fantasy races and castles instead of bases - this looks the nearest to that
