With a half-dozen classes, each with exclusive skills, spells, and units to.
Modern Masters (MMA), Masters Edition IV (ME4), Masters Edition III (ME3). That’s some pretty in-depth stuff for you Age of Wonders experts out there, but gives a reasonable idea which direction the developers are going in at present. Age of Wonders III is rated Strong after being reviewed by 21 critics. Homelands (HML), Ice Age (ICE), Fallen Empires (FEM), The Dark (DRK).
