Description: Tabletop wargaming has come to life! As the supreme leader of your own miniature army, you must use all your wits and cunning to outsmart your opponent on the battlefield. With an array of units at your disposal, you have all the tools necessary to crush your enemies.
Set in a Steam Punk world, electricity is a bit of magic. It has been discovered that electrical shocks can bring objects to life. Obviously, the only logical step is to animate your tin soldiers to fight your battles for you. The war for the realm of tables has begun!
Review: Apparently, Airborne Empires (Or Tablemen as it seems to be once called) was built from the ground up for VR and I do love my strategy games so this might have been pretty good. But sadly it seems it fell off the table of ideas and is now pretty much abandonware. Maybe it was the basic graphics or the complex multiplayer elements that made the developers drop it, who knows. All I do know is that this game will probably never see the light of day now.
