Today, Sega has announced the newest title in the Total War franchise, Total War: Pharaoh.
Fans of the series will not be suprised: Total War: Pharaoh continues with everything what belongs to Total War, so a turn-based overview map and real-time battles. The game will have 8 playable factions, of which Egypt, the Hittites and Canaanites are already known. The game will come in 3 different editions, on different price tiers, of which the last will already include 3 DLC factions and a DLC campaign. There are also pre-order bonuses, and a physical edition will come as well.
Total War: Pharaoh is scheduled to be released in October 2023.

The Tacticon is over, and besides many sales, there were also many interesting talks! They are now also available on youtube, the playlist is here. Talks include, among others, “The Art of War: Applying philosophical principles to modern strategy games” (panel includes Soren Johnson) and “Heroes at war: the role of key characters in strategy games” (panel here includes also Leyla Johnson).

We just had a raffle for PocketCiv, which is a nice small civ-style game. We asked our users what they would like to have less in Civilization games, and then rolled the dice to determine the winner.

Our user Kyriakos won one copy, requesting less internal stability in Civ nations.

Our user chefofrats would like to see less of the fantasy related content like bermuda triangle and vampires.

And Twitter user Guardian Angels simply wants less barbarians.
