I will go out on a limb and say that given some more love and (lots) more patches, “Eador: Masters of a Broken World” could become a classic in its genre. If you're a fantasy TBS fan you should definitely pick this up (it's only 20 bucks) and watch the patches roll in.

Despite its often-disastrous implementation, Eador’s design is worth your time – a testament to its strength.

Eador. Masters of the Broken World is Eador: Genesis with 3d graphics and a buggy multiplayer.

It is complicated in one instance, and simple in the next. It seems generic at first, but then shows its uniqueness in setting and granular game mechanics. It’s a game by strategy enthusiasts, for strategy enthusiasts. Once you look past the awkward, pimply exterior, a game of surprising interest looks back.

Masters of the World is a must for anyone who likes fantasy turn-based strategy games. Get it, but don’t play it just yet – wait a few weeks before the developers iron out the kinks. Judging by the speed at which they churn out new patches, you won’t have to wait too long.

In all honesty, forgoing the campaign mode and jumping straight in a skirmish might be a better proposition.

Until the bugs are ironed out, it’s just not worth the headache.
