Battle Realms + Winter of the Wolf

I remember seeing the game's box in an Electronic Boutique back in 2002. I remember saying "This game is amazing, I love it!" I also remember hating how this game suffered a mild case of AI Cheating and artificial difficulty in the campaign mode. I love this game, but its cruel and unappreciated. I wholeheartedly recommend buying this game but remember: it will show you no mercy, its depth is staggering, and there's a pretty good chance you'll fall in love with it. While a lot of opinions on this game are marked with nostalgia, (mine definitely included) it is a fact that this is a strong RTS with very interesting mechanics. The Unit Alchemy and Living Economy system, as well as the combat engine with beautiful animations and intricacies make for a real thinker of a game. Base construction and resource management feel streamlined, while getting your army composition in order and managing your forces makes up for this. The combat system is beautifully constructed with multiple damage types, unit upgrades and battle gear, and all sorts of checks, counters, and tricks to master. The campaign mode is decent enough, with the expansion's additions expanding on what the game establishes in lore and mechanics. This is a title you'll probably find yourself thinking of and booting up months, even years after your first playthrough, and each time you boot it back up it won't seem as dated as it was the first time you tried it. Its sometimes hard to remember that this game came out in 2001, before the likes of Warcraft 3. This is a gem, and one you should definitely consider picking up for yourself. The music is beautiful, the gameplay is engrossing, the visuals stand up pretty well to this day and you won't regret the choice to do so.

best game of my childhood

And it still is one of my favorite games of all time. Beautiful landscapes, japanese mythology and an unique game style offers you one of the best RTS experiences out there. Buy this game! Tell your friends! And lets hope Liquid will one day continue on this franchise.

Finally i owned it officially! Thank you GOG!

This game have good climate (graphic, music), it isn't a typical strategy (collecting resources and recruiting unit's isn't the same, like in another strategy games), and campaign is very interesting. Unfortunately, this game not runs properly on my computer with Windows 10. After some time game started to jam (FPS begins to decline from 60 to 40). I tried compatibility modes, widescreen patches, dgvooddoo and combination of this methods. Is it possible to fix it?
