Awesome Fantasy Browser based game!

http://elgea.illyriad.co.uk

I found this game looking for one that was better than Evony. Another one I have been playing for over a year. As it was not a game I really liked after playing it for a while Evony that is. This one is slow paced and you do have to think diplomatically and not in terms of conquer or hit and run tactics. This one there are consequences to your actions. It is one of community first, then the group you join. But overall it is still a great community to encounter. Even acknowledged “enemy” faction players will assist new players no matter which alliance or faction they join. The older players want the newer players to stay. And the rule is “we do for you, you do for the next ones” that holds only to the point of if you can do so then help the newer players. This one has its share of bad apples but are quickly weeded out by all the players as bad.

This game is more about strategy and diplomacy more than fighting and taking land. Like a lot of others. It is a building game for the most part. More like the old civilization build and upgrade the buildings type thing going for it. Which appeals to the create your own unique style of buildings in each town. Dependant upon what you want it to do.

The updates that they have done recently make it even more in depth than anything I have seen of a browser based game and community.
