"Battlefleet Gothic: Armada" is on sale at 70% off! [:)] Sale ends July 13th! From the developers: "Developed with Unreal Engine 4, Battlefleet Gothic: Armada offers deep management of every ship composing the player’s fleet, both during and between battles. From the fastest frigates to the gigantic, miles-long battleships, the player will customize all aspects of his ships: weaponry, defense and support sub-systems, but also crew, captains, and more... each customization affecting the very performances of the ship and the special abilities available during battle. From battle to battle, the admirals and crew of surviving ships will gain experience and promotions, improving the battle-readiness of the ships for future, bigger and more dangerous battles.

Additionally an extensive multiplayer mode with persistent fleets where up to 4 players can battle simultaneously, Battlefleet Gothic: Armada also features a big story campaign, taking place during the 12th Black Crusade and putting players in the middle of the Gothic War that raged between the Imperium and Abaddon the Despoiler. Players will be at the centre of every fight, commanding fleets of gigantic ships as the Chaos unleash a sequential chain of surprise attacks on Imperium worlds – the start of 20 years of warring in the sector."

You know what they say, don't you? About how us MechWarriors are the modern knights, how warfare has become civilized now that we have to abide by conventions and rules of war. Don't believe it.

At least they got PC right. Looks like the original IBM 5150 with two 5,25" floppy disk drives.

Has anyone of the Matrix staff tried out that game yet? How close to reality is it?

If you want a much better game than this, the same type, and much more professionally done, try this one:

Software Inc

I bought both and kept Software Inc and returned Game Dev Tycoon. I have a lot of hours in Software Inc, it's excellent.

'Software Inc' is excellent but is a more hardcore, where 'Game Dev Tycoon' is more casual and excellent also...in my humble opinion.

The names are wrong (fictional) in the game to avoid legal issues...

"Firewatch" is on sale at 55% off! [:)] Sale ends July 19th! From the developers: "Firewatch is a single-player first-person mystery set in the Wyoming wilderness.
The year is 1989. You are a man named Henry who has retreated from his messy life to work as a fire lookout in the Wyoming wilderness. Perched high atop a mountain, it’s your job to look for smoke and keep the wilderness safe. An especially hot, dry summer has everyone on edge. Your supervisor Delilah is available to you at all times over a small, handheld radio—your only contact with the world you've left behind. But when something strange draws you out of your lookout tower and into the forest, you’ll explore a wild and unknown environment, facing questions and making choices that can build or destroy the only meaningful relationship you have."
