Upcoming Turn-based Strategy Game's Website Now Live with New Screens

NEW YORK - May 5, 2010- Paradox Interactive today confirmed a release date of May 21, 2010 for Legio, the upcoming turn-based PC strategy game by indie game developer Ice Game Studios. Playable for up two players, the game is a mix between chess and a turn-based war game and takes place in a mythical fantasy world where magicians, warriors and monsters battle for domination.

Both players control an equal army of characters with the goal of eliminating the other player's army. Learning to play Legio is quite easy, but mastering all the various strategies promises hours of extended gameplay. Legio also includes an intelligent music engine that adjusts the musical theme to reflect the current gameplay.

“After a successful beta, Legio, a true labor of love for us a Game Studios’, is finally being released” said CEO Fredrik Sällström.

In addition to the release date, Paradox unveiled new screenshots on the brand new Legio website which can be found at: www.legiogame.com. The new screenshots are available here: http://www.legiogame.com/default.asp?p=media

Very nice game. I hope to meet you in some multiplayer matches!
 
Seems very reminiscent of an old game called Archon, from what I can tell. Oh, the graphics are far more advanced, of course, and there is multi-player now, but still....

Anyway, just an observation. I could certainly be wrong...

Close, but I think the darkness of its setting more closely resembles Dark Legions.

I was interested in Legio when it was first mentioned some time back and am happy to see that work on it is continuing. It looks like a lot of fun.
