We're curious how many of you were owners of the original "Crown of Glory," how many of you own our Civil War game "Forge of Freedom," and how many have owned both. Please choose the answer that applies, though only upon purchase of the game. (If you are 100% certain that you will be buying COG:EE, but only once the recession ends or your portfolio of auto, newspaper and banking stocks rebounds, please wait until that time...)

Thanks for your responses!

Shoot - take one off the FOF vote. I hadn't read the post - I just habitually vote on things . . . I own FOF but haven't purchased COG:EE yet, and won't be buying for a bit (my gaming dollars are going into AE and MWIF first . . .

Hello
Got all your games Gil (even if I didn't buy CoG, got a review copy - and made a review !) ! But I do get 99% of all PC wargames produced, so I'm not really representing the customer base [:-][:'(]
In fact CoGEE is dling now, a bit slowly though (<200K/sec, my connection is 600Ko, this seems a success if the server is so taxed..). [>:]
Well, really I'm more and more impressed by WCS games : COG was a bit rough on the edges, with some missing features and an improvable interface, FoF showed numerous improvements on the same general game design, COG EE - from the posts and AARs- seems to be now "one step beyond" .
Keep on the good work !

This kind of caught me off guard.  I haven't played FOF in a long while (shame on me!) and came here to see if a patch for it had been released and see this game! I love FOF so much I had to buy it. I can't wait to give it a try. [sm=00000436.gif]



Dreadnaught -> RE: Is "Crown of Glory: Emperor's Edition" your first WCS game? (2/28/2009 12:11:36 AM)

I purchased FoF long after it's release, and not being a real big wargamer, I loved it(although i am a paradox fanboi). I do not own CoG, but I am off to purchase CoG:EE right now as I see it's released!



hadberz -> RE: Is "Crown of Glory: Emperor's Edition" your first WCS game? (2/28/2009 12:46:12 AM)

I have FoF and now CoG EE. I heard great things about CoG, but just never got around to getting it. I'm not missing out this time. [:)]



Zap -> RE: Is "Crown of Glory: Emperor's Edition" your first WCS game? (3/1/2009 4:46:32 AM)

I voted FOf take my vote off. Should have read your intro before voting. Have not purchased COG EE



terje439 -> RE: Is "Crown of Glory: Emperor's Edition" your first WCS game? (3/1/2009 6:09:06 AM)

FoF->CoG->CoG:EE [:)]



Gil R. -> RE: Is "Crown of Glory: Emperor's Edition" your first WCS game? (3/26/2009 7:32:49 PM)

Now, I know for an absolute fact that more than 80 people have bought this game...

I have the hamburger with the lot [:D]

Cog:EE first time wcs player.



06 Maestro -> RE: Is "Crown of Glory: Emperor's Edition" your first WCS game? (5/4/2009 4:53:40 AM)

I finally bought FoF about 4 months ago and CoG EE a week ago. Never played FoF yet, but am getting lots of use from CoG EE.



staryhrac30 -> RE: Is "Crown of Glory: Emperor's Edition" your first WCS game? (6/17/2009 8:43:21 PM)

Hi,
COG:EE is my first game from WCS. Also it is the first one I purchased from Matrix.



MorningDew -> RE: Is "Crown of Glory: Emperor's Edition" your first WCS game? (6/17/2009 8:54:17 PM)

I own COG, FoF and COGEE. Favorite so far is COGEE.



ithuriel2 -> RE: Is "Crown of Glory: Emperor's Edition" your first WCS game? (6/22/2009 2:14:45 PM)

Own FoF, CoG, and CoG EE. Will enjoy CoG EE more when minor problems sorted out.
Detailed combat in all 3 is the best I have encountered in all the strategy games played. I used to rate the Total War series quite high but they fail miserably when it comes to diplomacy.
I find the development of province resources somewhat slow and tedious in CoG EE, especially with regard to textiles as the production of quality military units depends too much on textiles, and by the time one has one's military units up to a high standard the game length is virtually over.
How about game events which boost production significantly, or when one captures a province there is a stache of resources one obtains ? Also Terms of Surrender could include a demand for certain resources from a conquered nation.



AttuWatcher -> RE: Is "Crown of Glory: Emperor's Edition" your first WCS game? (8/4/2009 8:30:03 AM)

Just purchased COGEE. First WCS game, second Matrix game after AE.

Bought this as an alternative to garbage (IMHO) like Victoria, EU, and Empire Total War.

Hope it does not disappoint, I'm optimistic!

Bought Forge of Freedom first; liked the way you did things in both grand strategic control, and then allowed us to have brigade-level battles. [:D]

I then recently bought COG:EE for myself for christmas -- I shall have to learn more about the Napoleonic wars -- this is a period I know little to nothing about; other than "Napoleon conquers europe, invades russia, loses; is exiled, comes back, fights Waterloo, then gets exiled permanently" [:'(]



Max 86 -> RE: Is "Crown of Glory: Emperor's Edition" your first WCS game? (12/12/2009 2:22:43 AM)

I own COG and FOF but not COGEE. Hope Santa is reading this! You guys make great games. Keep up the good work. What else does Western Civ have in the pipeline?



Gen.Hoepner -> RE: Is "Crown of Glory: Emperor's Edition" your first WCS game? (1/20/2010 11:28:48 AM)

Bought FOF when it came out. Being playin it for months and months. Great game.
After this great gaming adventure i decided to give COG a try...bought it last week and it's ruining my nights and my sleep [;)] ...my sexual and love life is suffering too...but who cares? Life has its priorities [8D]

WC is on my Top list right now along with Gary G.

Thanks guys



Gen.Hoepner -> RE: Is "Crown of Glory: Emperor's Edition" your first WCS game? (1/20/2010 11:30:50 AM)

I wanted to right COGEE, not COG



helm123456789 -> RE: Is "Crown of Glory: Emperor's Edition" your first WCS game? (5/20/2011 12:29:05 AM)

Own COG, but never got COGEE.  Was deployed when the game came out and I missed the special pricing for owners of COG.  Figure at full price I'll just stick with COG for now and maybe pick up COGEE in the future if there is a sale or something.



BELLACO -> RE: Is "Crown of Glory: Emperor's Edition" your first WCS game? (3/28/2021 5:09:44 PM)

Sorry, maybe this is not the place to ask for it but... Is there any plan to redone or update this wonderfull game? I would like this game for main wars of XVIII century with a worldwide map and better UI, better AI and graphics. In my opinion it would be a great success worldwide for sure.
