Just sharing this 50% off sale, and to ask opinions of other GOGers here: If I were to get only 1 of these 2, which to get? Both? Opinions please. ;)

NOTE: The 50% discount only applies to the individual games and not the already discounted bundle of SI & AE.

So, can one buy two games separately using this key? Because that will be way cheaper than 10% off bundle.

apparently so
Coupon is valid for 2 weeks. Also, they have a new game called Six Gun Saga, for $14.99.

Yes, I guess it's meant to buy each one separately. $12.50 for each, then.
I was coming here to post the sale myself!

I think the discount applies to all three of his games; Armageddon Empires, Solium Infernum and Six Gun Saga, I have all three!

They are all turn based strategy games, very slow paced but really satisfying when you can see your plans come to fruition

AE and SGS are single player games whereas Solium Infernum does have a single player option but it really shines in multiplayer PBEM, scheming against one another and watching your opponents' plans fall apart is the game at its best. There's currently a free mini-expansion being tested that does kick up the aggressiveness of the AIs in single player.

If you can only afford one, get SI, if two SI and AE, unless you really like the theme I'd skip SGS. It's an interesting idea for a game but IMHO it suffers from the fighting mechanic, the poker hands are a very thematic way to simulate conflicts (in the Doomtown CCG for instance) but here they just fall flat, I can't really articulate why.

For anyone who's not heard of these games there are demos of all the games on his website, check them out! http://www.crypticcomet.com/
I dislike MP games so I can't say anything about SI, however Armageddon Empires is a fucking amazing SP experience.
Bastards. They knew what to put in the demo.

Indeed, the code applies to all three.

Guess what?! I've picked up all three, even if I'm not much into Six Gun Saga's theme. :-)

Now to get my ass kicked hard in these three, and in Achron.
