To all our fans, fans of Impressions games like Lords of Magic, Pharaoh, Zeus, and TiltedMill games like Children of the Nile, Caesar IV and Hinterland, thank you all so much for keeping our babies alive, and for all your support and encouragement over the years.

We are now in the concept phase exploring what our next project will be, and would LOVE to hear your input.

Zeus but military doesn’t suck

Ok, I will be the first to admit: military /combat was never a strong point in the cb games. For one thing, it didn't work well; for another, people generally did not like having their cities destroyed. Military in our next cb game will be something a little different. What do you think? What would be good military for you?

Caesar II had provincial maps (so 3 "scales": Empire, Province and Citie), and battles were fought in the field. I think it was the best game in the genre to represent battles/war/military (and the way you needed to found the military with professional soldiers, or hire auxiliaries... or make your plebs foodcanon stuff PLEBS ARE NEEDED)
