 IGN: Dragon Age Preview
When asked about the significance of the title, BioWare told us that, like the Stone Age and Iron Age, they wanted to indicate that the game takes place in a time where dragons are prevalent.
Dragon Age will be no exception, and they have already developed a backstory and culture for the playable races as well as the non-playable races in the game.
Although nothing is finalized at this point, Dragon Age will feature archetypal races and classes (you know, fighters, clerics, mages and the like), and BioWare is looking to the community to decide exactly which classes and races they want to see in the game.

 RPGnet: The Inside Scoop on Gaming
A quick overview of the book reveals that it is a basic primer to playing characters in the Iron Kingdom’s setting, a sort of industrial-age fantasy world.
The few problems I have with the book are small, it relies on the forthcoming Iron Kingdoms Campaign setting a little too much, some things seem a little strong, like the regional modifiers for humans and the Ogrun race in General, also some of the rules used seem a tad on the complicated side.
The new races of the Iron Kingdoms are presented; these include the Ogrun, Trollkin, Gobbers and the Nyss.

 Sharky Games - '+$ArtG+' - '+$ArtC+' - '+$ArtN+'
One title that did manage to stand out was Talonsoft's 1996 release Age of Sail, which ironically came out at about the same time as Wooden Ships and Iron Men and thus is usually either confused with that game or forgotten completely as the genre was often compared to a sinking fleet.
Avalon Hill's pontifical Wooden Ships and Iron Men proved that their boring board game could successfully be turned into a boring PC title; mostly due to the fact that this type of combat is about quick nerves and timing while the turn-based gameplay was about as exciting as watching your computer reboot.
There have been several pirate-themed games as well but even the best, Sid Meier's Pirates, wasn't really about tactical ship-to-ship combat; and more to the point these games focused on the golden age of piracy, not the great days of naval combat that followed.

At least if driving was the same age as drinking, it would reduce the numbers of 17 year olds tearing around with booze in their hand (15/16 year olds in America, I believe it can be).
