    We got a new game announcement which will probably interest quite some civfanatics! Dale, co-developer of #OldWorld and long-time civ fan is now working on his own independent game, called #Imperialist . As you can guess from the context and title, this is a turn-based 4X game, set during the age of imperialism. You might now be thinking about "Colonization", but this game is not about creating a new state in the old world, but forging an empire which spans the the whole world. The graphics have retro flair though and are definitely aimed at long time civ fans, and for who remembers it also the "Imperialism" sries! Otherwise you will get more intricate supply chains and more advanced diplomacy with friends and foes, making this game a potential new candidate for the "one-more-turn" syndrome at the end of this year.

    The game is scheduled for release in Q4 2026. You can find the Steam entry here store.steampowered.com/app/435 and discuss it with us here forums.civfanatics.com/threads .

  3. Turning A Big Dial Taht Says "Civilization" On It And Constantly Looking Back At The Audience For Approval Like A Contestant On The Price Is Right

  4. Gestern eine Runde Ascending Empires zu viert gespielt. Ein 4X Weltraumspiel. Eigentlich gar nicht meine Genre.
    Aber hier werden die Raumschiffe durch das Weltall geflippt. Das war recht lustig.

    Mitspielen würde ich wohl wieder.

  5. Official game playthrough and review of March of the Ants is coming soon.

    I'm getting this in front of a group of 40-55 year old wargamers.

    They already want to use the 2-player starting hex opening for the 4 player game, and they read the rule book enough to come in with some strategies before arriving. (The benefits of scheduling the game.)

    I have a feeling I'm going to get stomped, but you always learn the most when that happens.

  6. #Firaxis just announced "Test of Time", a free update for #CivilizationVII and honestly, it feels like the game I was waiting for since launch.

    The forced #civ-switching between Ages is gone 🔥 You now start as one civilisation and stay as one, with customised cultural combinations that shape how your empire evolves. Exactly what I called from day one.

    (The old Age-switching is still there for those who want it)

    Add a reworked Victory system, 90+ new Triumph objectives and a new map type on top of that, and Civ 7 has gone from a frustrating mess to something actually worth my time.

    Now we only need the Modern Age — and maybe a Future Age — and the game is complete.

    Drops 19 May 2026. Better late than never.

  11. The Pinnacle are taking back to the stars. We have met two civilizations and both have tried to throw us down, waging wars against us. Both have been defeated. Will we ever know peace with these inferior species? Will it matter? We have pierced the veil and are looking to the beyond. But first, Slay the Spire 2
