Why Early Access?

“We decided to choose Early Access, because your comments and feedback will be very useful to develop the game in the best possible way. We plan to evaluate and take into account which additional mechanics are the most wanted and popular, and we intend to listen to the community voice in order to make a strategy game that best meets the wishes of the gamers.”

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“About 6 months.”

“By the time the version 1.0 is released, we plan to add the following features:

• Mechanics of diplomacy;
  
• Unrest mechanics and the possibility of provoking rebellions on the enemy territory;
  
• More countries, including realms that can declare independence from Europeans, such as Bengal or Ceylon;
  
• More historical and alt-historical events;
  
• Improved AI;
  
• Improved combat mechanics, the ability to have more than one army, the introduction of combat arms and the addition of new historical types of troops;
  
• A deeper economic model, increased role of resources and addition of the new buildings;
  
• Increased importance of religious and national factors;
  
• More significant differences between countries, which will make the game process more diverse when choosing a country to play as.

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“Currently, the game presents 34 playable countries with background historical information on each. The basic mechanics of combat, construction and conquests are implemented already. You recruit troops for your main army and local garrisons: each region of the subcontinent provides its own types of soldiers. In order to strengthen your economy, you develop the infrastructure of the provinces by constructing various buildings. The global objective is to liberate India from foreign invaders, and, on the side, unite it under your own firm hand.”

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

“The price will be slightly raised in the future, when new content and additional mechanics will be added into the game.”

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