havent read that much about them yet, but theyre been mysterious about them at the moment

Im happy to say that looking at my steam account and from what i already know, Paradox could be my favourite dev now they seem to have their release s*** together

I wouldn't mind seeing their Rome game getting another chance based on CK2 and EU4 system.....

Armstrong is an interesting choice for a project code name. Lots of speculation about a space game at the link but I wonder if they are over looking another Armstrong- George Armstrong Custer. Mayhaps it will be a game about 'manifest destiny' including the Indian Wars.

I would love to see a Civilization type game from Paradox. Start in the stone age, go to the space age, random maps, etc.

[JasonPratt]

Not only that, I wouldn't mind them finally setting up a game spanning the so-called Dark Age period between the fall of Rome, or even as per Great Invasions starting with the final big pre-fall schism in the mid 300s, and going up to CK2. I like GI but it's clunky as hell and desperately needs a stable upgrade and a sane game redesign. Not that I don't understand the rationale for why the designer did what he did in the first place, porting his board game to a EU-ish kind of engine; the original EU engine wouldn't have handled the  but obviously CK's general game design would eliminate that problem.

Armstrong I suppose would be Vicky3 with an obscure reference to Custer. It doesn't seem likely they'd be jumping on the Race to Space-type bandwagon. (But not impossible, they do a lot of things aside from Clausewitz.)

You guys are missing the obvious reference.  It could be a bike racing game!  Or maybe drug dealing.

[Staggerwing]

Yeah, I decided not to go there.   :D

I'd like to see Rome 2 revisited and updated, but I might be one the only people who actually think Rome is their best EU game.

Nero sounds like a dungeon/fantasy-type game.  Armstrong...not sure, ships and rockets could be maybe WWII or (III?) lots of conflicts actually ::).

Either way, I think I'd be more interested in Armstrong...

[Grim.Reaper]

Yep, me too, depending on what it is....not much into the fantasy stuff myself.

Nope, I love Rome EU also.
It wasn't better than CK2 or EU4 but it was damn good with the expansion

For Nero there are 2 screenshots but so anonymous you wouldnt know anything more - there is a mountain scene and a forest scene both in very wintery conditions

There is some speculation that they have decided to go professional on the mod for Game of Thrones but im sure we'd have read about the tie in by now

Was hoping Project nero turns out to be EU: Rome 2 with the EUIV engine. Would save me the trouble of having to make an EUIV mod covering the same thing myself  ;) but based on the hints that seems unlikely.

I could be happy with games of thrones
