The game is launched. GOG, Gamers Gate, and Desura now and Steam in a couple of hours. I can't say it enough that the writing is excellent and the music score superb. I'll let the more familiar with the genre go into the gameplay.

Some idiot named meteormac gave it 5 stars on GOG and wrote a half-assed review. :mrgreen:

Ooooh, 5 out of 5 people find that review helpful...whew.

Thanks Bob :P

For everyone's general information, I totally crushed Jaedar in multiplayer. Actually I didn't totally crush him, he opened extremely deftly and really put me on the defensive. I thought I was a gonner for sure, but I managed to turn the tide somehow and ended up with another victory notch on my musket stock.

I made some stupid mistakes and let my dudes get flanked. Repeatedly.

VENGEANCE WILL BE MINE!

Congratulations Jonas! It's looking great!
The real trouble with reality is that there's no background music.

So since I got approval from Jonas that I can use GMG's 20% off coupon, I went ahead and bought it. And as expected, although most of you already knew, it's great.

If the beta is anything to go by, not a lot. It might be tied into the "random events" thing, but in the beta I got a "the medallion does nothing" message every time. :D

Oh Boy! The Frenchies of canarpc did a review of Expeditions: Conquistador.

And guess what? They gave it: 9/10!

on the title page you can read :
Expeditions Conquistador: L'eldorado du RPG tactique


I guess you catch the meaning. \:D/

Anyway congratulations, folks! You can pat yourself on the back.

I hope it will sell well. Maybe you can buy a Jacuzzi after this... *mrgreen*

If it works (and not "do nothing") all current partymembers in that combat will get +1 morale

So yeah, it's usefulness is pretty limited.
Can somebody tell me how I can get a custom avatar?

Is it just me or is mexico a bit.... too easy? Haven't seen a hard fight yet. Then again the map is pretty huge, so anything could happen.

Oh boy.

I'm stuck going back and forward with people in camp going between moderate disease/ballistic trauma/lacerations to severe. So every time I do one person, the other gets worse, and so on and so forth.

My last save is around an hour back :(

Well if you ask me, the whole damn game is cakewalk, even on Insane difficulty, even if I never use any combat items.

But you probably shouldn't ask me.

You should concentrate on getting one follower back to health at a time, precisely because this will happen otherwise.
