Warlords Battlecry 3

[moistie]

Has been released in the U.S. and is due to be released here within a month or so (despite it being developed and produced by a Melbourne based gaming company). Theres due to be 16 races and a choice of any field of speciality (warrior, priest, archmage, thief, etc). Anyone here played WBc2 and awaiting the release of the next installment?

I played 2 and 1 and am kind of disappointed in what I've seen of 3, to be honest - It's basically the same game but bigger and better - which I suppose is a good thing, but I'd rather see innovation.

The game hasn't been released in Oz yet, so I'll hold out on judging it until I've had a chance to play. But it is true that it is an updated version of WBc 2. Apparently they're saying #4 is supposed to be the big shift in the series to a 3D engine, etc.
