    So this MMO just comes out of nowhere with little fanfare and "launches?"

    Iv been enjoying this one a lot . if you are a fan of turned based games and mmo this is a must play.  Great dedicated community and active devs in game. Very loot based squad building type game.try this one its free to play

    Looks decent (little rough around the edges) also nice to see a turn-based title in this format, will check this out with the wife when we get a chance.

    is a bit rough around the edges , but a good game still , Maybe they can smooth things out with some updates and money coming in ..

    True that can change , looks like a good tactical co-op romp (with a little more to it than most of those games with the MMO sized community). There's simply not enough games in that category IMO, especially decent ones.

    I'd like to give this game a try, if anyone's up for a co-op game with the funniest guy ever should find that guy, force him to play this title and invite me along as well. Cheers.

    ah never been a fan of these types of games. you get like 4 chars, and have to kill a floor of 15 mobs, then they die, and another wave comes, then another.  a bit drawn out. good luck with it tho hehe

    No not like that at all. Ok so here is how it goes, You have squads of 3 fighters and you can have 5 squads for a max of 15 fighters on the board. You ALWAYS face even number of mobs. So you move from tile to tile exploring maps broken into lvl zones, There are traveling mobs sometimes in packs of 1-5, Regardless of how many enemies are on the tile you only go to combat with a equal number to your fighters. So for instance lets say you have 3 squads and attack a mob on a tile with 5 enemy  squads, You will only face 3 enemy squads. After each match 1 item( weapon or armour) or a resource drop for each squad in combat, so lets say you have 3 squads 3 items will drop after a victory. battles take about 15-30 mins depending on squad size

     There is a market place to buy and sell items, and fighters, Its a simple but very deep game, What i love about it is i feel like i can hop in and out of the game in 30 min intervals and make progress.

    Yeah its one of those games that really need to be spread by word of mouth. Not alot of coverage or advertising with this one. Guess another Mass effect article needs to be published first /sigh

    I doubt a kickstarter project has the funds to buy reviews on this website. Its not like this is a MMO on a MMO website so i see why they would over look it lol
