Lords of Ultima

Anybody in the beta for this browser game?
http://www.lordofultima.com

Got in via BF:Heroes (all BF:Heroes accounts got an invite), and it seems like a nice mix of Age of Empires, Settlers and even (worst of all) Planetarion. You can choose to play more peacefully by not building a castle, but this will still leave you open to plunder attacks (enemies trying to steal your ressources), but you can't be conquered or assaulted. You can build new cities instead of conquering them, so there is always a way without risking too much or having to go to war.

The graphics are really nice for a browser game, and it's a big improvement over the pure text based games. A lot stuff is still being developed, they are looking to implement quests and other stuff that is not based on player vs. player interaction. But of course you can always choose to go war and build a castle, which enables you to attack others and be attacked. This also means you can loose the city where you built a castle.

Overall very fun game with some fun people and due to a building queue, you don't even have to monitor it too much.

Would like to see some more Legion members around :-)
