Although the thought of waiting for one of my perpetually stoned gaming buddies to "take there turn" causes acid reflux, this may be the first game I ever buy just to look at the pretty pictures lol

I'm actually in the CB, and I had a conversation with one of the GM's that were ingame checking on things. She said that they plan on the game being Free to Play, but plan on selling itmes via a store. She didn't mention what things, but I would assume all the little extras, like Mercanary stortage slots, Unskill Books, and a few other little things.
The character above is, infact, the Monk Mercanary. They specialize in defensive ablities. Not sure how much more I'm allowed to say, but a nice tip, if you Use Spearman mercs, he is a nice way to sumplement thier, somewhat lacking, defense... to bad you can't get him till about your Mid-twenties.
The game is fun, but the battles are rather punishing, ecspecially any time you are fighting ranged enemies, as they can go right for your squishies with 100 damage a hit on a 400 health character. And no mater what you main is, they will have more health that the Mercs of thier type, as well as a bit more defense.
The main gripe I have currently is the advancment system for mercs and wandering NPC's. A minor grip is that Partying, while nessacary at times, is a bit akward, since there are no real defined jobs for people to be doing, since the same classes that can heal actually do the most burst damage per hit.
I can't really go into much deatil, since I'm not really sure wha all I am allowed to say, but the game is deffinely worth trying out if you like RTS or TBRPG games, as the battle system has a bit of both mixxed in.
