King's Bounty - The Legend

Interesting-looking game coming up. According to the gamespot preview it's a sort of RPG/TBS cross, where you lead small squads to their glory or doom rather than risk the life of your hero. Which is sort of cruel - poor cannon-fodder peasants! - but it also helps the gameflow in that you can more believably lose a battle and continue playing, rather than having to have either stupid amounts of Raise Dead or lots and lots of reloading. Not that reloading is always bad, but, well, sometimes you do want to plow ahead without worrying so much. :)

Listed for US release in September, dunno about Europe.
