Oh hell yeah a new Runequest game! The screenshots make it look a lot like Battlesector but with a proper campaign, which was my biggest problem with Battlesector, so I'm looking forward to it.
@ExampleOfPlay If you haven't seen them before, there have been a couple of very good strategy games based off the setting that I would recommend playing (the excellent King of Dragon Pass from 1999 and its much more recent sequals in the Six Ages games), but they were much more focused on narrative so combat was more an important thing that happened during events than a main focus. The best comparison I have is to say they are like a text-based frostpunk, focused on building up resources to survive whatever the setting throws at you. The main Runequest product is a TTRPG, but the setting originally started as a wargame (Warhammer Fantasy's beastmen were originally Runequest models) so it looks like this game will serve the more combat focused side of the setting. From the trailer it definitely looks like they get the vibe of the setting, so I'm very much looking forward to it.

Keep these coming!
I will! I’m working on different ways to gather strategy gaming news, trying to hit on the big stuff and indies.

Glad you’re excited! It’s not a setting I’m very familiar with, but seems pretty cool!
