:(

You do realize that this game + its extra content on Steam is +- 16GB? On a 384k line that will be murder to download :(. Methinks I will preorder a hard copy instead...

certainly one of my all time favourites... now supports Win 7 (32 & 64).

it's actually not bad... but it is a somewhat different, (RPG/RTS mix), where you're balancing character advancement with expansion and defence...challenging but fun.

i enjoyed it immensely... Spellforce 2 was an improvement on the original, but the dynamic remains the same, (except SF2 had additional modes which added a little something extra)...

I remember the box art and wasnt it used on the 3D Blaster box? Never played it though. I played Little Big Adventure on my cousins pc instead. I was a poor bottom back then with a 286 and a dream of a pc that could run games :P Ended up getting a Sega Mega drive 2 years later though :D

i have sins + one expansion... getting the entire kit for the price of one expansion is very tempting...

the game takes some time to get into and find a good balance between offence/defence strategies... and it is absolutely unforgiving to RTS newcomers :lol:...
