An extremely unique RTS / RPG. Perfectly melding Hack'n'Slash with tactical army management. It kind of plays like a simplified Total War game where you control the commander in battle yourself. I'm glad I stumbled upon this one. There is very limited 'grand strategy'. You are usually just picking which battlefield to go to next in a fairly linear fashion. A large part of the fun is allocating experience points to units and choosing their skills and jobs. The choices you make will largely effect your ability to progress in the game but there are also many different compositions and play styles you can choose to succeed. The story is engaging, a little dated and in some cases hilariously translated or voice acted. It could be better but it works. The art style and character designs are fantastic. My only frustration with this game, is that for some reason, in the PC port, the word Patriarch or any variation like Patriarchal has been cut from the audio, and it comes up a lot. This can sometimes make following the dialog a bit confusing because it doesn't just blank the word, it's cut and the word is instantly skipped. Also I have no idea why such a word would be cut. It is a strange use of the word admittedly but there is no reason to censor it.

When i discovered that this had been put onto steam, i immediately purchased. Its been years since i played, but it is still just as good now. It has its moments sure, but honestly, it does what it does better than some other games that are somewhat similar. If you've played Viking: Battle for Aasgard, you know what i mean. This game came out 4 years earlier on a previous generation system, is twice as good and a hell of a lot more fun. Definitely worth 20 dollars in my opinion.

Holy crap I forgot how much I LOVED this game. Reminds me back in the day when my friend and I would play it together and make game plans. Kinda bitter sweet because I love the game, still holds up to today standards, but just reminds me of decades ago when I was a wee kid. 10/10 recommend getting this game, even if you never played it on console when it was a "newer" game. Its soo god.

This is that game that I could never beat from my childhood. A hack and slash where you play as a general with an army. There are different generals with their own campaigns on both sides of a war. You choose a general, build your army, travel around the map, and do missions. The strategy is tricky to master, but I love the immersion in this game so much. The game mechanics still hold up today.
