Worlds of Magic

Wasteland Interactive is running their second kickstarter for some extra features. If any of you guys have played Master of Magic this is a spiritual successor from an Indie studio. They use modified D20 ruleset and unity3D engine to develop it.

For others I still recommend it if you are interested in turn based strategy 4X games and wish to show support for an Indie studio.

Check out the battle board (alpha) demo on their kickstarter site.

Thx for the link. having a look at the alpha might help with a decission. A decent successor for master of magic is something i'm realy looking for. Sadly most attempts fail especially at the magic part of the game and i'm not sure if WoM will have that any better. 300 spells are a few more than MoM but at the same time the realms of magic got doubled. This is a great reduction to the depth of each realm and might lead to a very shallow system.

They are planning to release expansion packs though. I.e. water themed expansion. I believe they mentioned they are not releasing all planned features with initial release of the game but all "core" features will be there.
