Battle Brothers

Game review

So this is basically good old Jagged Alliance but in a medieval/dark-fantasy setting.
The basic mechanics are solid and fun, which is rare these days of "half-cooked" early access titles.
So, what can you do in this game right now:
1) Generate a world with different towns, villages, castles and etc
2) Start off with a 3-men mercenary company and work your way up
3) Earn money by completing different tasks: slaying, guarding caravans, defending villages against goblins, orks or werewolves.
4) Spend money on mercs wages, new equipment, provisions, medicine, ammo and repair kits
5) BATTLE. I must say, as a fan of turn-based tactics, I find the already implemented battle system in Battle Brothers very solid and fun. It's rather simple, but have it's "depth".
Overall, these guys managed to create one of the best indies ever (also, one of the best EA titles), and it will become even more enjoyable in Februart 2016 with the big update coming, bringing new wordl map mechanics, fast travel, factions with their own politics and much more. Hats off.
