RPGWatch Feature - Disciples 3 Review

Many of us anticipated Disciples 3 for a long time, particularly on the back of the beautiful art and screenshots released.  The early reviews from Russia and, indeed, the English release were mixed but now we have our own detailed critique from VoxClamant.  Here's a snip:

Two hours into playing you are smiling ear to ear at the new combat system.  Moving your army, the new "hot spots", new special abilities for your creatures (and hero), the dynamic use of obstacles on the battlefield -- all combine for a lot of fun.  The design of the new combat system is excellent and normally would provide hours of challenges.

Four or five hours in you are starting to see that Disciples 3 increased the RPG/Quest aspect of the game.  You have rescued an angel on a mysterious mission and even met the evil protagonist who disappears after the usual threats and the promise of things to come.  You are so busy building your character and trying to figure out how things work that you push aside the nagging things that are starting to add up and bother you.
