Is there an advantage for pre-ordering? Of not, I will probably grab it from Steam

Says it has an extra scenario or something.

If GOG has it, I'll get it there at some point.  I'm still happy to avoid Steam, especially with it's varied login issues lately.

According to the GOG.com description of Age of Wonders III:

"Unique preorder DLC: Elven Resurgence, a standalone scenario.
The Deluxe Edition includes: the Dragon's Throne standalone scenario, and the two hour official soundtrack."

There is quite a bit more information on the webpage I linked to.
Regardless of how good a PC game may be it will always have its detractors and no matter how bad a PC game may be it will always have its fans.

Meh...I only play sandbox anyway so I will wait and see. I took the opening dive on several games lately so I will wait a day or two and see what we have

I still badly wish they were doing an English-language boxed edition.  I envy the Germans.

+1 It does look a nice game.

Info on the sixth (and final) Leader class -- Warlord -- has been released. 


Quote
Warlords rule by the Law of the Sword, establishing a chain of command based on battlefield glory. Their armies consist of highly specialized, mobile troops and powerful beasts. Warlords are master tacticians, and often legendary warriors unto themselves. Though they tend to trust the power of their hardened armies over supernatural forces, Warlords have mastered arcane skills that strengthen their armies.

I've already decided on dwarf dreadnought - seems to fit with my lore knowledge on dwarves

They're supposed to be called "Little People Dreadnoughts" these days.

Didn't you get the memo from the PC-Police?

:P

^Yeah really.

Any background on the dreadnought? That is the class that has really caught my eye.

They could've saved some of the Civ5 comparisons by not using the exact same damn colors and art-deco style UI as the Civ game.   ::)

Gonna wait until after it's released?  Think I will.

It may sound odd to some, but not having an Early Access period makes me wonder if there may be issues they don't want to be public.  ???

I never buy early releases & release day has become patch day for 99% of releases, so I'll wait.

How come I only see this at Steam & GoG and not Amazon? ???
