The Awakening goes KoW Tipping
Thanks to everyone for their patience.  I had planned on publishing this update as soon as the NDA was lifted earlier in the week.  Family concerns took precedence and I appreciate the understanding.  My wife and I thank you for your kinds words and prayers.

Now...

Everything is new: units, factions, heroes, spells, techs, and more.  All updated to KoW version 0.7.3 Beta.  As soon as I am able to get my hands on the full version, I will bring it all up to date.  If you happen to see something that is out of whack, feel free to send me a quick note.  I will continue to tweak and fix things I invariably frigged up. :)

GameSpy Reviews KoW!
That's right, a review, and not just another preview.  GameSpy takes KoW for a spin and gives it 4 1/2 out of 5 stars along with an Editor's Choice award!

Kohan II: Kings of War is a fantastic, fantasy-themed real-time strategy game that no fan of the genre should overlook. The sequel to the critically acclaimed 2001 release Kohan: Immortal Sovereigns, Kings of War is elegantly designed, challenging, beautiful, and one of the best games released this year.

War Memories
The Awakening has the exclusive honor of hosting a new Tale by none other than TimeGate Studios' own TG_Kharush!

We give no quarter and neither do they.  The butchery knows no bounds and the field of battle has been drenched in mortal blood. I almost hope I am struck down this day and forget, perhaps forever, the sight before me.

Read War Memories: Chapter I and stay tuned for the next installments...

Factions 3 Mod
Crom has put together an extensive mod called Factions 3:

All faction units have been modified.  The Council is an army of beasts, the "Holy" Royalists represents the Mareten of Khaldun along with the Magelord Nationalists, and the Ceyah still lumber forth as undead minions.  This list is large and better illustrated by the many global history lists included.  The best way to experience the changes is to play!
