A DoF heaven would be absolutely amazing, but I don't know how many other HGers are that excited about Dawn of Fantasy, as I can think of a couple bar myself but not many.
In case anybody is wondering i'm A Banned User from HG. You can mainly find me at EEH making scenarios.

Hey ABU.
I don't know about the newbies, but a lot of the oldies who were around when Reverie started, have been following DoF's development and show interest. And then, DoF is a scenario designer and modder's dream, and that is primarily who we cater to, so I think it has plenty of interest.

It is still alive (the expansion at least), maybe not on HG but it is alive.

Wow, lots of HGers around here...

I wish more of them would have used similar aliases so I'd recognize them, like Nacht. But I guess I'm partially guilty of that as well.

I missed the very beginnings, but I can still remember like six or seven years ago all the designers getting all excited about a new game in the works and how it would cure cancer and end homelessness. In other words, it's probably better hardly anyone's there that remembers, because nobody likes unrealistic expectations.

I hope Aro will put something in the news at AoKH when it gets closer to coming out, given the history and all. Maybe get some of the newer guys in the loop.

What's all this talk of BFME2? Old school is Age of Kings and Star Wars Galactic Battlegrounds...

Damn, I just realized how old I am now, lol. Gah

I actually use Impeached .. everywhere. I neglected to here because I must place my full name.
So you're Cobra the Mediocre, then, eh?

Most of our staff, in fact, used to avidly do some sort of modding/scenario designing for some game or other.

AOE2 is a game I play even now with my much older uncle, of all people. Konstantin is obviously a legend. A modest one.

Not sure whatever happened with AOE3. Must say the physics are, as far as I've seen, unrivalled by any other RTS I've encountered. But the maps always felt confined. Anyhow the expansions added the sort of diversity in gameplay that should've been there in the beginning.

Anyhow, I actually started playing AOE1 as far back as 1998. Was introduced by my uncle who worked in an IT firm. I suppose his colleagues would've suggested it to him. Then we started playing via LAN. Not sure how others played but I remember the two main strategies were to either spam Chariot Archers, or Heavy Catapults. I was 10 years old then. Hah. How time flies. That was my first run-in with RTS games. And since then, I've never lost the addiction.
