Overview

About this game

Supply Lines

  • This unique mechanic allows for deeper strategic gameplay for both offensive and defensive actions. Say no more to needless storming of heavily defended positions, simply starve enemy forces by severing their supply lines and watch their strength crumble. 

Node-based Strategy

  • Units move on roads connecting strategic points.

  • Capture and fortify them to expand your influence and unlock new tactical options. While some buildings provide better defenses some can help you to train more units, additionally they can unlock new abilities, bonuses for your knights, ranged attacks and much more...!

Abilities

  • Powerful skills that reward timing and precision. Abilities are provided by specialized buildings that can be captured and upgraded.

Changing weather

  • At night, vision is much shorter which makes sneaking actions dangerous.

  • Local dynamic weather effects change the battlefield:

    • Rain - slows down units by mudding the roads.

    • Dense fog - hides units from vision.

    • Snow storms - kill and slows down units on roads.

    • Freezing water - open up new paths of approach during winter nights.
