ofsaturn: Sorry to butt in, but you might want to know that they've pushed back the release date, it's now scheduled for Q1 2014.

Andanzas: Good catch! Thanks! I guess that really means it will be released in Q2 2014, right? http://www.ageofwonders.com/age-of-wonders-iii-set-to-release-q1-2014/
Actually, I'm rather optimistic about the delay. The game looks amazing as is, even in alpha. Hopefully the devs are just taking their time to work out all the kinks... I think most of us gamers have had our fill of rushed and thus poorly executed games as of late. Not to point fingers (directly at EA) or anything. ;-)
Still no word on pricing yet, but maybe GOG will offer it in a bundle or at a pre-order discount. They seem to be pretty good at that sort of thing.
