Almost three years ago, Stardock released their first turn-based fantasy 4X strategy game ever, Elemental: War of Magic<\/a>. Apparently, Stardock’s original\u00a0intention<\/a>\u00a0was to purchase the rights to\u00a0Master of Magic<\/a>\u00a0(Steve Barcia’s classic fantasy 4X game)\u00a0from Atari, but ended up creating their own\u00a0universe. Unfortunately, things didn’t go too well, to say the least, and Elemental: War of Magic ended up receiving poor review scores<\/a> from both fans and critics.<\/p>\n

Elemental: Fallen Enchantress was Stardock’s, and Brad Wardell’s (Stardock’s CEO), attempt to fix Elemental’s false start. Brad hired Derek Paxton, creator of the Civilization IV\u00a0Fall from Heaven mod, as lead designer. The result, in Keith’s opinion, was “an enjoyable 4X fantasy game<\/a>“, one that Keith says “has successfully redeemed [Stardock] for their past failures”. Stardock offered Fallen\u00a0Enchantress\u00a0to everyone who purchased Elemental: War of Magic back then. And, will also offer them the second expansion, Legendary Heroes, by the way.<\/p>\n
