I've seen a little about this game at EmpireEarth Heaven. I think it looks interesting and will likely check it out more as the release draws closer.

From what I read in the EE heaven forums, when compared to RoN, it will have less to offer the TBS diehards and probably draw in more of the AoE RTS players. ...But, since I'm just going off of heresy that may just be a bunch of bull

BTW,

Stainless Steele, is set to make this game. They made the original Empire Earth, ( not the expansion). So I'd expect that some similiarities will exist.

Support Apolyton, buy Civilization III: Complete

Something is not right here; while China and Koreas' units are all ancient, the US and Germans' units are all modern... I wonder how will US survive in early stages of the game and how China will win in late games....

Support Apolyton or Terrorists Win

Heh, not something I usually care about, but watching the trailer I have to say the graphics are pretty damned good. Probably the first time that a RTS has used 3D graphics and not ended up looking like utter ****.

yeah, the graphics are quite impressive. I hope the gameplay will end up good as the graphics.
