Well, it&#8217;s out today, and this is how the developer, KING Art Games, defines it:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>Have you ever asked yourself what a classic turn-based strategy game like &#8220;Battle Isle&#8221; or &#8220;Panzer General&#8221; would look like today? What modern technology and graphics would add to such a game? Well, we actually did and as a result we decided to bring back this great genre with its unique gameplay experience. We&#8217;re doing this for you, for ourselves, and for all the other gamers out there who are into turn-based strategy games. &#8211;<a  href=\"http:\/\/battle-worlds.com\/the-game\/\" target=\"_blank\">KING Art Games<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>I wouldn&#8217;t know, because I didn&#8217;t play Battle Isle or Panzer General. But, what interests me here is the turn-based combat mechanic and the sci-fi setting over two single-player campaigns. The <a  href=\"http:\/\/battle-worlds.com\/the-game\/\" target=\"_blank\">list of features<\/a> also includes cross-platform multiplayer, which can be played in hot-seat, live on the internet or on an asynchronous\u00a0play-by-email fashion.<\/p>\n<p>Clearly, the focus here is on warfare, but looking at the screenshots I can&#8217;t help wondering\u00a0if there may be other less belligerent mechanics present. Some base building or resource management elements, perhaps? Have you played it?
