Stoic Details Combat in The Banner Saga

If you’re a lover of turn-based strategy games, you may want to pay attention to this one. The Banner Saga is a highly successful Kickstarter funded project, raising 700% of their original goal. The game is currently in development and is set for a PC/Mac release on January 14, 2014. It features the detailed mechanics that you would expect from a strategy game, but also has a deep narrative focused on Viking culture with beautifully animated scenes and voiced dialogue.
