Use code PDX10 for 10% more off - credit to Matt4045, cheers! Cheapest deal I've seen for the game + DLC for AoW3, from the publisher's own website (Paradox).
The DLC has been stubbornly expensive for a good while but here's a chance to grab it for a good discount even if you own the base game already. Given that this is Paradox, it will probably be on sale every 5 minutes from now on, but still ...
Age of Wonders is a classical 4X turn based strategy in a fantasy setting, with well realised tactical combat. The emphasis as far as I can tell is on aggression and territorial control - city building is limited, although you can establish new cities anywhere you please. The corollary to all that is the excellent tactical battle system, which is probably the centrepiece of the title - a mix of Heroes of Might and Magic and Master of Magic, but more sophisticated than both.
My last deal got scrubbed for being a rando online shop, this one is the publisher at least so I'll leave it at that, here's some links. Steam page Totalbiscuit's review

I have spent so many years of my life playing this series. In fact, at one stage my lovely wife was describing herself as an "Age of Wonders widow" :stuck_out_tongue:

Works fine my end, Bully. Steam forums are clean as a whistle.
Awesome lol. Seems to have a very dedicated playerbase which is ace. I'm a strategy scrub by comparison, I tend to just play a few campaigns!

Already got the game from Steam but it's a great price for a great game.

10% off code no longer appears to work. Got it anyway, still a great price for the whole collection, and good to support a great developer by buying direct.
