Gaming Trend posted their review of Ashes: Escalation and gives it a 90/100! "Well beyond simple DLC, Escalation polishes every aspect of the base game. The campaign is excellent, and the expansion of defensive and upgradeable structures helps ease in new players." http://gamingtrend.com/reviews/rise-of-the-ai-ashes-of-the-singularity-escalation-review/

IGN has their review of Ashes: Escalation up and gives it an 8.1 /10! "Escalation succeeds at making Ashes of the Singularity a bigger, better, sleeker RTS that allows you to play its great new content alongside just about everything from the base game (including the lacklustre original campaign missions)." Read the full review here.... http://www.ign.com/articles/2016/11/10/ashes-of-the-singularity-escalation-review    
The basics Ashes of the Singularity is a massive-scale, real-time-strategy game set in the future where individual beings command vast armies of machines to conquer entire worlds to add them to their empires. Concept Ashes of the Singularity was released first. It was designed to target both new players to the genre as well as veteran players.

Since there is some confusion, I wanted to make a post about this. Originally posted by  Draginol : Hi all! Sorry for the delay. I pushed the release date back one week. We've gotten a lot of good feedback on balance and wanted a few extra days to test the balance changes with the campaign to make sure we didn't make a given mission too hard. When we released Ashes, we got a lot of feedback that the campaign was too hard (when it was first released). W...

"Escalation will expand the backstory of the Substrate, an enemy faction dedicated to the absolute annihilation of humanity, through two new campaigns that will give players the option of controlling either side. The original campaign will also be "fleshed out further based on the game's background lore, " and new maps for both single-player and multiplayer modes will be much lar...

Hey guys. Wanted to get some feedback from you as to whether you think this would be a good idea or not. After Escalation ships, we are considering creating a multiplayer only edition of Ashes of the Singularity (Tournament).  You wouldn't be able to buy this version.  Instead, everyone who buys either Ashes of the Singularity or Escalation would get 8 keys to give out to people.  Those people could then download the Tournament edition. They'd only be able to play...
