Another nice review here.
"Lionheart does a good job of stepping out of that shadow cast by Arthur and casts its own very long shadow that will be a measure for other RTS games in the future. The two games are similar in feel, but different in so many other aspects that you can’t say one is derived from the other and that’s the whole point right? We didn’t want King Arthur 2 (well, some of us do want further expansions), we wanted a new game with a new setting, gameplay and new mechanics, but in the same vein and spirit as King Arthur and that is exactly what we have received with Lionheart King’s Crusade. Lionheart will be a great addition the the collection of any wargamer or real-time strategy fan and will give you hours of enjoyment. The game is available through GamersGate.com."
Yes it is. It's also on sale right now at Steam for $9.
That's four very favorable reviews I've now linked to, and I can enthusiastically confirm, having spent the day with this, that the game is a blast. Here's the review in its entirety. I realize that by now some of you might be worried about this game because a few ignorant people here have, for whatever reasons, decided to try and tarnish this game's reputation (I still can't quite figure out why, though I suspect that these individuals are far angrier with me than they are with the game, and that because I was the one who posted about this sale, they've decided to take it out on the game). It is indeed a tremendous shame that that had to happen. I urge you to read this review, and the three others I linked to on the previous page.

Please note that certain people in this thread continue to push the IGN review to the fore, while ignoring the four positive reviews I've linked to. They're doing this because the IGN review focused on a bug that was experienced by only a few gamers (note that not one of the four reviewers to whom I linked experienced this bug). The IGN review is no longer relevant. The game has been patched. Very few people experienced the bug anyway, which is evident at the steam forum where fewer than 30 posts were created in one thread about this topic.
Please note as well that some of the people posting in this thread, who have suddenly decided to champion IGN, have said very nasty things about this website in the past. I'm not going to name names, but a search of the forum will reveal discrepancies here. If a person is going to blast IGN in one thread, then they should stay consistent with that in other threads as well.
Lionheart is a very good game - and for nine dollars it's a no-brainer. Please don't allow the haters to cloud your thinking. Propaganda only works if you actually listen to it.
