Worth buying WiA?

[petesnook]

Hi
I purchased BoA2 a while ago, and am loving it so far...great game!

I noticed that the first WiA is only £6.99 on GamersGate now....is there any reason to buy it if I already have BoA2? I realise that BoA2 is going to be a big step-up from WiA in a lot of ways, so presume not?

Cheers

BoA2 is called WiA

You probably mean the first BoA?
If you ask me WiA is a BIG upgrade over the original BoA and you only need it (=BoA) if you want to test the original version.

Thanks for the quick reply, Carnium. And "Doh"....I did mean BoA (ie the first one).

With BoA2 - WiA you don't need BoA1. BoA2 has everything BoA1 has, plus much more.

If you really liked WiA then you will love other AGEOD titles as well.
I have them all, except RUS (will buy soon) and they have great re-playability and the company is still supporting them with patches

I agree. BoA2 is a huge improvement over BOA1, in every way.

But I would encourage you to buy the upcoming Pride of Nations, which will be the best Ageod game so far.

Wars in America is a very special game. It has a really nice balance of simplicity and complexity. Easy to play, but lots and lots to consider.
Sometimes I get overwhelm with the other fine AeGOD game, and retreat to loveliness of WiA. So, do experience the other games, but hang onto Wia.
