More great coverage from IGN. Background, history, and more screen shots.

"Russian players and writers have named King's Bounty: The Legend one of the most successful revivals of a brand in computer games history. It has also been nominated as Game of The Year by many magazines and websites in our country. We will just have to wait and see what North American and European players think about it. Of course, we hope it will bring them great enjoyment."

That first one with the Death castle may be my favorite screenshot to date. That is beautiful.

Really interested in the second one now as well. Female pirates? Haven't seen them before in any other picture.

Yeah but does anyone know what the red crown for morale means? Because isnt bad morale just a frown or something? It appears in a couple screenshots too.

Anyways, didnt read the review but the screens look amazing :grin:

It means that the hero doesn't have enough leadership for this particular amount of troops. His leadership parameter has decreased.

Yeah, it happens when you wear an item that gives a leadership bonus, recruit the maximum amount of troops, then take the item off.

Unlike in the old original King's Bounty, such unruly troops with exceeded leadership won't attack your remaining ones, but just move around the battlefield aimlessly.

You are a little bit wrong. Besides moving around, the unruly troops can attack either enemy, or your other units, but when the amount of them becomes suitable for your leadership, these troops will return to your control.

Wow, very interesting. Figured it would be bad just because the way it was red. Sounds like a neat idea though (ive never played the first KB), thanks for explaining :-P
