Heroes of Annihilated Empires - first impressions

Heroes of Annihilated Empires is a new realtime strategy game from Ukrainian game development studio GSC Game World. I've just been playing it for a few days. Impressions? Well, it's a mix of Lord of the Rings (main theme & fantasy world), Pirates of the Carribean & Gladiator (music is completely copied from Hans Zimmer who did music for all these motion pictures) and Cossacks, GSC's previous RTS game. The overall impression is good - you can build REALLY massive armies with hundreds of units. Graphics is good, maps are huge and detailed, story doesn't suck much yet (apparently it will soon - there is some sort of time-travelling clue in the opening cinematics). Base management is a little disturbing and sounds are poor. Anyway, I enjoy playing this game. Check the official homepage.
