Paradox Interactive games

I greatly second Syni Kyiva: link

badger_ken's AARs are also a good read; you can see his skills improve over the course of his AARs, and he often has discussions about how game mechanics work in them.
 
What is the new Magna Mundi game? Victoria2 and EU3 made a baby?

Gettysburg: Armored Warfare looks pretty interesting. Should come Q1-2 2012. :)

This sounds extremely ambitious. http://www.paradoxplaza.com/games/gettysburg-armored-warfare

Features

64 players per server
4 maps (9 km x 9 km in size)
Over 1'000 controllable units on the battlefield at once
Play as Union or Confederate
10 unit types
Modifications & upgrades for units
Persistent Point/XP system and Stats Tracking
Upgradable avatars (Using points/XP)
3 unit game modes (Only 1860s, Only hybrid 2060s, and All types)
Achievements powered by Paradox Connect

It this going be like a DoTA/LoL game where everyone in-game is both an RTS commander and a FPSer?
Or will it have a strict division between RTS and FPS aspects? It seems like most attempts at RTS/FPS hybrids have been failures
(Empires mod for HL2 is the only one I'd describe as a success).

I think the War-of-the-Rose game will be decent, though it's by the Lead and Gold developer (ok game, not worth $20 imho) and I can't see if it's done by the Mount and Blade team at all. The features sound great (typical RPG leveling through unlocks, SP story campaign, and PvP matches). I predict this will be full of win and make Paradox rich.

And Paradox must read these forums, especially Maniacal's posts because they are making a....

...free2play MMO? LOL.

It looks like A House Divided has been delayed. It should be out on February 2nd, IIRC.
 
So I have Hearts of Iron II Doomsday with Armageddon. Would you guys recommend getting something like Darkest Hour or Arsenal of Democracy, getting HoI3 + expansions, or just sticking with what I have now?
 
Both DH and Arsenal are essentially Hearts of Iron II mods with extras and a better map; they're nice, but you might want to get them when they're cheap.

I'd wait on HoI3 until they bring out a "Complete" edition.
 
There is no point in preordering a Paradox Game. Being disappointed a bit early is never a good thing. :p
 
I wish I had the money to get AHD right away. Alas, I need a job. :(
 
What is the new Magna Mundi game? Victoria2 and EU3 made a baby?

Something I´ve been drooling over ever since it was announced.

Yeah, it sounds very promising
I have a few questions on the Magna Mundi mod though
Is it only available to Heir to the Throne?
Is 1.26 the latest version?
If yes, is it well balanced and fairly complete?
Is there any way to play the game as HttT if I have EU3 Chronicles?
