Aderanwars

There's a new game that came out LIVE 1st january, beta has run for around 4 months where bugs were fixed and major components of the game coded.

If anyone knows KoC then they'll recognize format of the ingame layout. But that's basically where the similarities end.
Game mechanics were reworked, race bonuses balanced and tons of features added to allow people really play their preferred style.
I'll warn everyone, currently the focus has been on functionality and it's a purely browser text based game, so whoever needs fancy graphics and doesn't want to wait until they get some (which they will, just it's not THE priority), then don't bother. Oh yeah and there's only a few hundred registered players and only just above 100 players active, cos game hasn't been out for long.
However whoever likes a game where you can build up an army but also loose most of it if you really screw up, ingame politics really has everything ranging from secret alliances and treaties to spies and traitors and getting to know new people, then this is a good choice.
