I just want to say thankyou to the Stardock team for creating a true MoM inspired game. It is really encouraging to see the CEO and lead developer of Stardock/Elemental engaging with the community - I've only checked these forums a bit but I've seen some really good ideas and discussion brought up here.

Please keep up the good work and I'm sure all the longtime MoM fans will be celebrating with champagne once this treasure is finished.

On a smaller note I think if there's one thing that made MoM so addicitive is the sheer amount of unique features added to the different races, spells, magic schools, wizards, heroes and armies (with units having specific bonuses). The game was not difficuly to learn but at the same time had immense depth that gave it great replayability and is something that is missing from todays PC/console games.

I think if Elemental keeps to that depth in the race/army/spell/magic etc features and ensures that it is well polished before release it should be a great success.
