Epic Cartography: Magna Mundi

Magna Mundi sounds like a chewy candy bar from 1980s to my ignorant ears, but no synthetic toffee substitute here: it's an impending grand strategy game from Paradox, based on the Europa Universalis III engine. 'Grand' is not a word bandied about casually, for Mega Munchies boasts no less than 400 playable nations politicking and warring across 300 years. One of them had better be Wales. The game's due for release early next year, but a closed beta will usher lucky applicants through its Epic Door Of History next month.

But before you can reach lucky applicant status, you must reach applicant status, which you can achieve by popping over here and telling Paradox horrifyingly private details such as when you lost your virginity, your mother's home telephone number and whether you've ever killed an animal. Oh, wait, sorry, I'm thinking of something else. This one just wants name, email and system specs. You also need to sign up for the Paradox forums, mind.

More details and a rather brave choice of font can be found over on the official Manga Mundi website.
