In Age of Wonders 3, you essentially play the role of a military dictator, a political power in charge of a small kingdom, where you force your will upon a randomly generated map controlled by the AI, or even your friends. This could spell disaster if done incorrectly, but I really think Triumph Studios has something great on their hands. This game takes all of the best pieces of these titles and puts them into one magical computer game. It is really a step back in time for me, as in my youth my favorite PC titles were Civilization 2, Heroes of Might and Magic, and Masters of Magic. Several have come in its wake, and recently, the third official title, “ Age of Wonders III” has been announced! I was fortunate enough to get the call to play this fascinating title.

The elemental and alignment traits have two levels of commitment to them, but it is important to remember that with only three specialization slots.
Specializations come in three flavors: elemental, alignment, and strategic. Specializations are an important part of any leader's grand strategy as the spells and abilities that they give access to means that you have more tools in your kit and you can make powerful combinations of race, class, and specialization that can produce amazing effects.
