PzKw43 -> Empire Development Progress (10/29/2013 11:35:57 PM)

From Vic's website:

I have made quite some further gameplay improvements to Workname Empire as well. Longer development time has some payoffs. The most interesting thing to share is that the leader model is really starting to get a lot body. The leaders are getting a lot of personality and development opportunities now. There are four classes: Troopers, Technicals, Administrators and Barbarians. Although I am not limiting the player in their character development there is a penalty for learning skills belonging to other classes. The interplay between regular combat units and the leaders is very good and I think it will be one of the strong points of this game. In a sense this game is going where no wargame has gone before. The game will also show the player that larger forces can be overcome by smaller forces if led by able and experienced officers.

Hope to tell you all the AI is working out in my November report. Hoping to have the interface completed by x-mas.

In the meantime Decisive Campaigns 3 is also slowly progressing. I am adding some advanced new reporting functions as we speak as well as the option to take multiple choice decisions when confronted with specific issues. I am working with an as yet secret other developer on this title, if we feel comfortable in opening up to the public we will. So far so good though.

Best wishes,
Vic

The comments on the blog post confirmed that the first game on the engine will not be historical.

Could it be the return of the Groschken Reich and the Atlantian Empire? It would have WW2 technology without having "German panzers"

Wow thanks for he update! I don't visit Vic's website often so it's good to see there's good progress.

I read in one of Vic's Twitter posts that he says "I'm working on a full HD mobile game. Workname Empire." This makes me wonder if this game is only for an iPad and/or an Android tablet. Will there even be a PC game by this name? If it turns out to be an iPad only game then this gamer will be sadly disappointed. Vic's previous mobile games were designed for Android.

PC release work Workname Empire is scheduled first. But yes I am aiming to bring this game to tablets as well.

Best,
Vic

Good news! I'm excited to see this game come to fruition. I'd recommend everyone read Vic's post, including the comments.

Yep, this will be a great game [:)]. Donīt miss this interesting interview about AI recommended by Vic.




mgaffn1 -> RE: Empire Development Progress (11/1/2013 6:13:57 PM)

Very excited about the leader types.

Also glad to hear that PC's will not be left out!
