Its based on Scythe, yes. The game is a year away from being available, apparently.

Scythe is already on Steam but you probably know that.

I do. But this is not based on the Scythe board game - its a stand alone PC RTS game based on Scythe.

Looks good. I can't wait for the giant mech Ludendorff and the giant mech Pershing to face-off against each other in downtown Paris.  :applause:

The concept and style are cool, but I'm not sure that's enough to overcome my lack of interest in RTS.
