The
Best Buy web site has KAG listed at
$19.99. I did visit a local Best Buy yesterday and they had the
price at $39...so this might be an internet only deal.

The April issue of PC Gamer has reviewed KAG
and found it to be "good" with a 79% score:
"Though Ahriman's Gift is far superior to the original Kohan, it
still feels like the same experience -- and unlike some reduxs, it costs
the same as its parent game."
Thanks to Dave Craig for the heads up on
this review. :)

Kjellon is back with a new tale:
Dearest Treus. Here's a little
teaser...
The mountains north of here rise the highest in all of Khaldun. The tallest peak
no one has ever reached but it is rumored that it is there the mighty Johan
Javidan sleeps in his amulet waiting for the worthy hero who can free him from
his slumber so he can destroy all the evil in this land. He was laid there
generations ago. The story has been broken and added to so many times over the
years that it is likely the only thing left that is truth is Johan's name...

Sorry for the slow loading of the site...it is a combination of Bravenet
being down (where I get the poll and the counter) and the GameSpy ad
banner. I removed the Bravenet tags, so hopefully things will be a
little better.

New KIS Film:
Spooky+SM2
"Here comes a KIS film which I saved at a game last night
when I was at a lan session with a friend of mine. Since we are new to
Kohan (just got released in Germany some weeks ago) we are not really
into it yet, but as you can see it was a hell of a battle. Motto: 'He
who rules the center will win the game!'"

The "One That Started It All" (i.e. Kohan: Immortal Sovereigns) has
seen a dramatic price drop at various stores. So, if you haven't
picked up the multi-award winning KIS yet,
you can pick it up at a great price. For example:
CompUSA $14.99;
EB Games $19.99
