Hello --
Haven't had a chance to play the games, Majesty and Tzar. I suppose I bid on them because I wanted to have a supply of games after I've finished the campaigns in AOW.
BTW, both games have gotten positive reviews on the Usenet. The only problem with Majesty is that the campaign is a little too short but the producers are already planning to bring out a sequel, Northern Expansion. That will probably be out sometime this summer, I think.
I'm still waiting for the AOW expansion or AOW2. I give the game a thumbs up.
Currently, I'm debating on getting HOMM III: Shadows of Death or just focus on HOMM III: Restoration of Erathia and HOMM III: Armageddon's Blade. SOD contains the campaigns from ROE but does not include the random map generator in AB although it does include the neutral units first brought out in AB. There were some problems between the AB and the SOD games in terms of compatibility. Anyway, I'm undecided. I already have HOMM Millennium Edition which includes ROE. So wondering if I should get AB instead of SOD. Hmm. So many choices, so little time.
As you can see, I have a tendency to purchase games and put them in a pile so that I can play them when I'm ready. It's like I believe subconsciously that the games will disappear so I want to have a ready stockpile against a games drought! Yep, I'm seriously addicted to this.
I frequently peruse the strategic games newsgroup on Usenet to help me form an idea as to whether I'd like the game in question. I recommend this approach before purchasing a game.
