solid RTS i'm quite surprised it doesn't have much of a following, Think Cossacks but with a fantasy twist.

An awesome old game. Very nice graphics for the time, still ok today. I saw people saying lots of crashes...I've played the first 5 campaign scenarios and 4 hours without a single crash. I have a low end machine too ... a ryzen 4800h with an rtx 3050 and I'm on windows 11. Very worth buying still. The only real con for me is that I cannot remap the arrow keys to wasd. Minor nitpick. Edit: It's 2 weeks later. Still not a single crash. Whatever problems people were having seems to be gone.

An interesting if a bit wonky RTS with RPG elements. I think the game would have worked better if the RTS and RPG stuff happened alongside each other more outside of the campaign, but it still works pretty well and considering its age holds up decently.

One of my favorite RTSes. really cool undead faction. Downsides are terrible tooltips that give such minimal info it's basically wrong, and the game is very difficult to get running on modern machines

Similar to Age of Empires - Warcraft 3 - Empire Earth. With more of a focus on the RPG aspect. Tip: If you start running into a wall with difficulty. You probably didn't get enough char lvls per camp lvl( it seems to be 10 lvls per and there's many hidden things) Sadly it only has the one campaign(Elves) and feels like there is a lot of wasted potential in that aspect. A remaster with campaigns for all the races would be awesome. Only 1 crash and it was while starting game. Other then that it ran flawlessly. During game it ran at 1440p. The menus had a lower resolution so its seems strange when you start the game up. Would say it is 100% worth the $7.99. Pretty solid game for its time.
