Nah, I just have them on twitter and facebook, I often forget that it is Friday and that we will get the update.
Don't be disappointed, they are known for mixing in some stuff between the army(Necromancer/Frostlings/Tigrans) updates. We will probably see it next week.

Gonna listen to that music, Michiel van den Bos is literal Boss when it comes to music making. Age of Wonders 1 tracks are still one of the best game soundtracks I've ever heard and I was so happy that he is doing music for them again.
About release date, it should be near the end of March afaik.
EDIT: And yup, music is amazing as always!

Oh my Yaka god! Dat Sphinx!
Come on now, hand over that F5 key.
Very cool, I like that Tigrans are fragile but mobile, majority of them have 36 HP or something like that. Glad that Sphinxes are back.
And that last picture is amazing! With a ton of those Creepers and Bone Collector against Sphinx, Sun Guards and Sabretooth Chariot. The ambient is also really well done.
Me gusta!

This game is kinda nice, although I yet haven't got hooked by it. Played more than H6, that's for sure and paid for it too. Still rummaging my mood to check the remaining of campaigns to play it. I have to say that being able to build things on the Adventure map was just about one of the most engaging things I found out in that game, having different mounts and other features I would be rather pleased implemented in H7.
Saw that a DLC of the undead was released. Is it worth the try? Not that I fear seeing spiders there, but I do hope the undead are not as fashionable and shiny as those we see in H7.

It isn't released yet, but it will be the best thing ever. Necromancer class, 2 more races(Frostlings and Tigrans), 3 more specializations, a lot of changes to the current units to make them different from each other etc.
Necromancer units are quite different than those undead units in other games. Devs have said that they didn't want classical units like Vampires and Zombies in the game, so they gave them a little twist.

Eternal Lords are coming!
Goodbye life, it was nice knowing you.
EDIT: Necromancer page is up.
Some new things, I see spells in spell book that we didn't hear about before, like Age of Death that is really good! Also in few of those pictures there are Ghoul Mammoth Riders!
Overall, everything looks amazing, can't wait to hear what they did with all of the old units and their changes. April can't come soon enough! ^^

WOOT!
What I found interesting in the trailer: Polar Bear mount (it was to be expected but nevertheless, woot!), Tigrans have Piramids as their town model, we can see some of the announced "animated" leader backgrounds in action, Mammoths as animal neutral units, and dat Ice Temple battleground (very climatic!). A nice trailer overall. I'm especially surprised with how climatic those ice landscapes look. What I mean is that I was looking forward mostly to Tigrans, but Frostlings seem more attractive then ever
I'm a bit disappointed with the Sphinx final design though. She looks much better on the concept art imo.
PS: Also, two 100 mana Necromancers offensive spells?

Which just means that they are end-game spells, can't wait to see what the second one does. ^^
And I agree with you, the atmosphere and overall feeling is great.

To be honest, I am shocked that this whole expansion is ~20 Euros, nowadays expansion packs cost almost as much as the whole game.

Guess I'll wait for the final version of the patch (I don't like betas).
A lot of cool additions, for instance some units of each race get additional abilities to make the races more varied, like Orc -> Warcry (melee boost once per battle) or Dwarves -> Guarding strike (once per battle attack and guard at the same time). Those races really needed some more variety

Yeah we already knew that they are adding more diversity among races, but I didn't know all of them and how much will they affect the gameplay. Now we know and I say that they are amazing!
