    This game actually sounds really cool. Some exciting highlights:

    Squad-based combat in which players hire, train, and lead squads of NPC soldiers into battle.

    See, now this is a good idea. Not a huge twist or anything but it may add some much needed strategy a genre sorely in need of strategy. Also who doesn't want to have their own squad of roughnecks? Sounds awesome to me.

    Large scale battles where groups of squads form up into player-run armies.

    Ok even better. They've really got the flavor of the time period they want here, and the idea of getting all your fellow commanders together to take on some titans or whatever is totally kick ass.

    Who knows how this will turn out at this point, but I think it's a pretty good idea from what I've seen.
