Rome Hegemony

[Achilleslastand]

Rome Hegemony will be out hopefully in early 2014. http://www.longbowgames.com/forums/topic/?id=3038 Some of the screenshots look very impressive and I am sure I will be getting this to get my rome wargaming fix.

I got hegemoney gold wars of ancient greece in the sale, but i still have to play it. Might be this month since patch 3 ed up my framerate...

The original is pretty fun and is a unique take on the ancient warfare strategy games. Didn't know they were making a new one, looks great so far!

Hegemony was a good game, even kinda unique. Eagerly awaiting this one.

I am really looking forward to this title which will hopefully be released early in 2014. Also if you browse around on the forums they are taking applications for beta testers.

A new teaser trailer is up and the game is shaping up nicely if you are interested, Kalypso announce details for Hegemony Rome: The Rise of Caesar, out in Spring

Its in early acces. Not tempted by that, but it looks interesting. I really need to play hegemony gold; wars of ancient greece. especially because a friend gave it to me...

never played the series before, can someone explain? I'm guessing it's sort of a real time version of total war mixed with settlers or something like that?

It is real time with a pause button available for thinking out your actions beforehand. The camera is quite similar to the camera in the Supreme Commander series, scroll out with mousewheel for a birds eyes view and scroll down to get close to the action. The city building aspect is basically relegated to building farms, mines, walls, and a few other choices and the combat is similar to TW but on a smaller scale.

combat is similar to TW but on a smaller scale.

And directly on the world map without zooming into any separate battle maps, as far as I recall, right?
Definitely have to keep an eye on this and get Hegemony: Gold at some point. At least I really liked its demo back then.

Correct....
You may zoom seamlessly between world map/view and battles.

Bought it, CTD right after the splash screen. Well it's a good start. It sounds like having the word "rome" in the name of a game is a curse.

The game is still in beta......
You could go to their official forums and send the developers the dump file. They are very helpful and always listen to their customers.

[leviath]

I did. Waiting for a response and a solution. But yeah, I didn't plan to play it until the game is finished, I just wanted to support the dev.

Tbh after watching a few vids on youtube from Pewpewchewchew i can't say i am impressed. Seems like the same game with small vairiations.

Started hegemony gold: greece yesterday. Having trouble figuring stuff out with supply lines, unit replenishment and such

[StephanVos]

Anyone had a chance to look at this game. Looks pretty interesting. I had a look at the forum comments and some compare this game to total war and seem to think it holds up pretty good. http://store.steampowered.com/app/227060/

yeah its been brought up before, but since its not Rome 2 related this thread will probably get closed and buried beneath a bunch of rant threads
