Exodus Wars : Fractured Empires

[junk2drive]

This is a turn based game in the future with troops, armor and mek types with others in the works. Based on a 6mm ruleset, Exodus Wars. It has 3D maps and units with turns being pulses or activations or moves alternating on a player's initiative. Somewhat like Conflict of Heroes but without hexes or squares. Each unit has a range of movement with abilities within that range.

Currently in alpha funding. There is a demo and some gameplay videos.

If you are looking for something other than WWII, this looks promising.

Looks like it might have promise.

There is something about it over at Wargamer.  But giant robots do not do it for me.

Great find, that looks awesome.

I'll add this to the three hundred other games I want that are "in development" or looking for funding on kickstarter...do any of these games ever get released? So frustrating.(not this game) just venting while I wait for the imminent release of EB II (for the last year)

I can relate Mike, I'm still waiting on Star Drive to be finished...  It was the game that made me aware of Kickstarter.

I remember there was a thread about this here before, but I could be mistaken :P

Anyway, I've been playing it for a while now (the alpha), can't wait for the full version.

There was, but I'll be damned if I can find it.  There was uncertainty over whether it was multiplayer or not, if I recall correctly.

Is it playable and fun in its current state? Looks like it has a really long way to go.

What I installed so far works. There is an AI and op-fire called overwatch. I've been sick and haven't given it a full shakedown.

That said, I think I'll get $10 worth of entertainment from it. Compared to a movie or meal or powerball tickets.

I don't have many games as I am picky. No real time or FPS or flight/driving sims. I did give $5 to Recruits and I think it will be too fast for me but I needed to try something different. Same with this game, I'm sick of WWII hexes and squares. I have CMSF but don't seem to be able to handle all the nuances.

I'll be damned!

Tpek, I notice you checking the forum there. Devs have been more aloof than I expected. Wish they would answer questions.

We got a new build with a desert map and more units. No LOS or LOF yet so hiding behind hills doesn't work.

I'm a supporter there, so that's why I have an account. Yet I do not exactly frequent their forum.
But I can say that I've been in touch with the devs some months ago and they were quite friendly back then.
