They could not be more promising with this game.

it probably moves faster than they are billions because you dont have to worry about 1 zombies sneaking in and rather quickly turning 200 people into zombies
Loved the video @Rimmy - Downunder Gaming! Can't wait for the next video man! Loved the ending cutscene man, that sounded like it came straight out of Monty Python LMAO!
Actually I agree, having since gone back and played the other route. While I still won, it was waaaay closer to a defeat. I think the main reason was rebel camps were so much more common and spread throughout the whole map. I couldn't clear them all in time.
I checked out this game and thought it looked good, but now I actually plan on getting it. This video was great and the game looks better than I thought.

The alternative, Rimmy, is having the entire screen blanketed in a tidal wave of peasants until your graphics card turns to molten slag.
it's either hard mode for you, or for your computer

I just imagine like a scene where you're about to get crushed by a giant boulder, your friends were panicking and you just went "No need to panick guys, the animator haven't finish making this scene yet."
Suddenly, the lead animator suffered a heart attack. Monty Python strikes again.
The cutscenes reminded me so much of that Lego battles game for the DS, I swear the first one happened pretty much the same in that game

To be fair, it's a lot harder to argue the non-existence of divine right when the royalty calls down a magical ion cannon.
Rimmy: Is that a fucking rebel windmill? My knights might be able to challenge that.

This game has really strong “The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy” feel in it’s sense of humor. The description of the uncle’s castle was one of those out-there similes Douglas Adams liked to use
Is “Sir Duncan Ironbow” a purposeful or accidental parallel to Duncan Idaho?
Probably purposeful. The devs have a sense of humor and would likely find it funny to see how many people get that reference.
The names sound alike but the reference has sadly gone over my head.
History class was never my strong suit, i can barely remember my own in detail.
@@fishpop Duncan Idaho was one of the characters in the book Dune. In the book, he was a renowned warrior.

Thank you for covering this game. I had it lying around on my wishlist and your video does not disappoint. I'll be buying it now.

Sir Duncan Ironbow is a clever, yet strange reference.....

Rimmy sitting on so many resources especially in that last mission was hurting my RTS soul.
