For those lamenting the lack of race options in the base game, there are now 63 different combinations possible, which adds significantly to the replayability of the game.Įternal Lords was released alongside the massive 1.5 patch to the base game, which adds a number of transformative gameplay systems that Eternal Lords builds on, such as the new Race Governance system. The Eternal Lords expansion adds a three mission campaign, additional special sites, a racial upgrade system, and brings the total number of races to nine and classes to seven. While this is true, the addition of the class system in AoW3 increases the number of possible configurations dramatically over previous entries in the series. One major criticism of AoW3 is that it didn’t live up to the diversity of races seen in previous AoW games. AoW3 has received continuous developer support through a series of extensive patches, the Golden Realms expansion last fall, and now the Eternal Lords expansion. It includes a hearty dose of RPG elements, a clever magic system, empire building, detailed tactical combat, campaigns, scenarios, a random map generator, and multi-player modes. Prior reviews ( Age of Wonders III and AoW3: Golden Realms) have covered the basics of AoW3 that it is a high-fantasy, turn-based 4X strategy game.
I’ve continued to be a part of the closed testing group for the second expansion and have received one copy each of Golden Realms and Eternal Lords.Īge of Wonders III (AoW3) from Triumph Studios was released March 31st, 2014. Disclosure: I purchased Age of Wonders III on release and was later invited by Triumph Studios to join the closed testing group to help beta test the Golden Realms expansion.
