You can downloadzor this now off steam. It is about 2 gigs. Downloading now off the 3FL servers without steamwatch enabled for those on iinet.
Apparently the full version will be run entirely through steam which I think is a pretty big deal for a non-valve game. Also it is windows live - wtf. Expect a game very similar to company of heroes (which is good). |

I have been playing the beta for a bit now. It's very different to CoH, and quite different to dawn of war 1.
There is almost no base building. The entire game revolves around unit micro and using effective counters. Some people will love the style, others will hate it. I personally thinks its good since its a different take on the RTS style and not just DoW1 with prettier graphics. |

Played a few games and I would say it is pretty similar to company of heroes in terms of unit management. No bases is quite a thing but I will get used to it I guess. So far I prefer CoH but see what happens after a bit more playing. |
