Order of War needs a new name. Otherwise looks interesting.

I think it is interesting Square Enix (Final Fantasy, Dragon Quest) are publishing this title, but from the looks of it, it does look fun.  I’ve always been more a fan of large scale RTS games (Starcraft, C&C, TotalWar) than the smaller scale they’ve been leaning towards in recent years (World in Conflict, Company of Heroes, Dawn of War 2, or even Dawn of War 1).

Small scale conflict needs more formations; Myth 2 was the best small scale I’ve played.

Sometimes, strategy games are fun when they have less strategy and just look *damn* good.  When it is fun just watching a mass of units run across the battlefield, it is a bit easier to make the rest of the game entertaining, too.
