too bad though, I simply loved disciples 2 and the 3 add-ons.

I can say the same I'm a big fan of the Disciples title (starting from Disciples 1: Sacred Lands quite some time ago) - those games always had flair, interesting story, very cool units with wonderful animations, great music - everything that a player can desire to have all kinds of fun.

I had the opportunity to play through the empire campaign for a while and it was one great big escort quest. You gotta get some chick (she's an angel underneath, ok, ok!) to some altars while enemies are trying to stop you. Is she truly an angel though? Why do I get the feeling that we were doing the same with Uther in Disciples 2? So much for the interesting story...

As for the cool units, they're there - you can zoom in the camera to check out every detail of the units, there are various camera styles that will let you enjoy the combat to the fullest. No doubt they did some mighty fine piece of work there. Animations are good as well. Music's great too.

What ticked me off the most (I think) was the fact that if you're in full screen and you have to alt-tab out of the game (for example, like me - your cousin just sent you a message on skype), when you maximize the window, the game hangs - you can hear the clicking, but the screen is black and there is no way to fix it, except ctrl-alt-del, task manager, end or kill process (directly), swear a couple of times and go back into the game to do whatever you failed to save

Disciples 3 as it is requires a save before each battle, and at least once a turn to be on the safe side

As such, I strongly recommend that we stick to KBTL and KBAP that provide a very decent amount of fun until they make Disciples 3 somewhat playable.
