Dawn of Fantasy

I just heard about this new MMORTS and it seems like it will be cool heres some info in it.

In Dawn of Fantasy, you will follow the path of an impoverished country squire, Lord Harthram, as he joins the King's army in search of a simple wage, only to discover a desperate and bloody war with the Orc realm of Gokkholm is about to erupt. The human kingdom of Teria is led by an untested, self-absorbed nobleman, Prince Erian the 3rd. As The War Without Kings spirals out of control, Prince Erian must pass through the fires of youth into manhood under the tutelage of his father's military adviser, a rough-necked knight, and a profane half-dwarf soldier. Meanwhile, a mysterious conspiracy leads the Three Orders of Wizards to the distant realm of dragons, while human traitors, elven allies, and rogue pirate clans all contribute to the cataclysmic conclusion.

Also some of the Game Details:

Dawn of Fantasy features a realistic and vivid 3D world powered by the latest visual technology. The most advanced physics and graphics will be presented in the game, including dynamic shadows, rag-dolls physics, and bloom effects. In addition, an immersive world has been created with over one hundred different objects and environments specifically inserted to add realism and increase player interactivity. These include breathtaking rivers and lakes, mile high mountains, majestic waterfalls, organic growing grass and many other terrain features...

All of these elements combine to make Dawn of Fantasy one of the most immersive, visually breathtaking experiences in video games today. Ragdoll physics allow for realistic player/enemy movement - units are thrown around due to the resulting explosion of a projectile. Dynamic shadowing creates player models that seem more lifelike and "real" then previously experienced. And new sound effects completely immerse the player with authentic, realistic sounds - a small waterfall or river will constantly comfort the player with the smooth, soft sounds of water flowing. In the end, Dawn of Fantasy aims, not only to create a world that seems real and authentic, but one that the player will feel personally invested in because of its level of interactivity and realistic design.
