RSI demoed a version of this game (not the one they run -- War of the
Avatars -- but another scenario called Orcs vs. Dwarves) at Gencon both
this year and last year.  They've been running pay versions since last
year's Gencon.
I'm in games 11 and 13.
I personally really didn't like Alamaze, but I do like FR.  Some things,
like community size and multi-hex move in a turn are somewhat
Alamaze-like, but the huge advantage Alamaze vets have in pre-emptively
striking dangerous opponents doesn't exist in FR.
Also, you will never have more money to use than you know what to do
with in this game because you can have a virtually unlimited number of
standing orders with which to build troops.
