How is the full version planned to differ from the Early Access version?

“We plan to add a lot more content to the game. This includes more civilizations, campaigns, game modes, units, abilities, maps, upgrades, and any other content that community feedback suggests to us.”

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“The current version contains 5 civilizations, 19 maps, 2 campaigns, quality AI, functional multiplayer and map/campaign editor that will provide many hours of fun to the player.”

Will the game be priced differently during and after Early Access?

“Pricing will not change during Early Access; however, price may increase a bit at launch.”

How are you planning on involving the Community in your development process?
