Sweet.... Is Matrix going to carry this title? I would much rather by from Matrix. I don't much care for other company's DRM stuff.

Almost 100% certain they won't, since Paradox owns AGEOD now.

Jim Cobb has written a preview of Pride of Nations. It was published on the Armchair General website yesterday: Link

If I wasn’t so busy playing Field of Glory and WitP:AE I’d probably give the PoN demo a try.

Gave this a go the map lags terribly. There's a couple of bugs with random ethnic groups being in places they shouldn't but apparently this is fixed in the upcoming full game release. It needs some optimization.

The interface is too "busy" for my taste.....but that might change, after all I really despised the X-com demo the 1st time I played it and it became one of my favorite games.

Initial impressions report that, unlike Victoria, you have to do things youself.
Don't know if this is good or bad for players.  For me, I guess I just need to try it out.

If you disable "Limit Map Loading" in the options, that should solve the lag problem.

I was playing around with the settings and figured this out [8D] It really does speed up the game I meant to post that here but got sidetracked.

At $20, it's a no brainer.

I hope they'll stick to their promise to have it available on "all major download portals".

A very apt description for steam selection.

Please no more steam debate needed.
