Is this game based on Master of Magic?
Turn based strategy with magic awesomeness, really sounds like it. If so, G-R-E-A-T!

I'm not familiar with MoM much, so I'll just quote my previous post.
Fantasy Turn-Based Strategy? Count me interested! There's way too little games in that genre.
Will it be in the 'grand strategy' department like Age of Wonders and Dominions 3?
Or should I think like a tactical TBS (meh)?
I do like it'll be in the Majesty universe.
Mom: Think Civilization with magic spells and such instead of the historical tech tree.
Well this is interesting... Hopefully it is something like MoM but not in the way as Elemental is

You stole my question!
But seriously, the map, is the video an example of the sort of size we can expect to see? Or is it going to be a full-fleged 4X game, with an entire world to conquer?

What I heard before it shouldn't be too different from Age of Wonders.
That's a bit a fantasy Civilization, in the sense it's also 4x-ish.
In any case, Fantasy 4x TBS seems then what most people hope for.

And so be it!
Warlock - Master of the Arcane will be 4x TBS in the fantasy world of Ardania. There will be 4 standard map size available from small to huge. And speaking of MoM, we are getting lots of inspiration from that great game of old.
And so be it!
Sounds awesome!
Can't wait to hear more of this game.Will there be dev diaries?
4x Fantasy TBS? You 'heard' me Twittering with Fredrik, didn't you? Exactly what I said I liked, and then this turns up! Brilliant! :-D

You can see some concept art at Facebook. Find there the page "Warlock: Master of the Arcane". More to come!
I just remembered Warlocked thanks to this. The fact that the sequel was never completed makes me very, very sad.

I immediately thought of Elemental when I saw the trailer.
Of course, if this game goes the same way as that failed attempt then it could leave 1C and Paradox in the same bucket as Stardock...trying to regain respect.
Somehow I don't think it will.
This looks promising and Paradox published titles tend to, not always, have a good amount of depth to them and diversity that Stardock titles certainly don't. I can't wait to see more.
Master of Magic.
Master of the Arcane.
This sounds like a direct reference. And one of the developers said it was inspired in a 90's classic. I am already sold.

Connery impersonation + Ardania setting = based on Majesty: The Fantasy Kingdom Sim.
Though, given that Majesty was not turn-based and didn't allow you direct control over your units, I'm baffled as to why the franchise is being adapted for this purpose.
