Re: Will Terra Invicta be like Star Wars Rebellion?

If you haven't tried the Star Wars: Rebellion board game, which came out last year, it's fantastic. I wish I had friends to play with :P Sadly I live in Asia where western boardgames (and westerners like nerds) aren't to be found anywhere :? I heard it borrows a lot of elements from the actual game...

Re: What are You guys planning for the combat system?

Just to dump my thoughts on the matter here... The thing that disappoints me the most about many grand strategy games is that you don't really get to have much control over your units when you go from macro to micro.

Re: Ideas for Terra Invicta

Ummm, I thought Terra Invicta won't include tactical gameplay (i.e. XCOM). Instead it would focus on the bigger picture like a Grand Strategy and personally since I am a biiiiiiiiiiiiiig fan of Grand Strategies, I'm jubilant to hear it won't have squad tactical combat.
