Description
Kenji, exiled heir to the Dragon throne, must stake his claim in a chaotic world wracked by the subversive intrigues of the Serpent, Wolf, and Lotus clans. Shall he vanquish the land under a campaign of malevolence and terror or restore the war-torn realm to its former glory? Enter Battle Realms and choose your destiny. Explore the history that led up to the events in Battle Realms in Battle Realms: Winter of the White Wolf. Scattered and unorganized, your enslaved Wolf brethren hunger for revolt against their corrupt Lotus Clan masters. You must unite them. You must lead them. You must free them.

Battle Realms is fantasy real-time strategy game inspired by the stories told in kung-fu movies and oriental mythology. Develop your tiny peasant village into a highly trained and deadly efficient clan of warriors who are ready to die with your name on their lips. Experiment with Unit Alchemy and turn villagers into one-of-a-kind fighters like Samurai Cannoneers, Bandits, Geisha, and scores of other mythical warriors. Defend your people against the hordes of barbarians, evil magicians, and deadly ninjas.
  • The package includes the original Battle Realms and its Winter of the Wolf expansion that focuses on the Wolf clan and serves as a prequel to the original campaign.
  • Seize tactical advantages in a living world teeming with life - birds fly when startled, wolves attack troops, and higher ground offers increased power to ranged attacks.
  • Command the power of Zen - your Zen Masters wield fantastic powers in the heat of battle.

Nothing remarkable

A base builder RTS, like the old classics. The game is entertaining, the mechanics original but the story is really silly and generic, the graphics are ugly and the gameplay frustrating as the game advances. The good thing is that, in the campaign, you can make decissions that will affect your army. The game works like this: - You start building your base surviving enemy raids. Buildings are huge and ugly, you need a tremendous space to complete your base - To build an army you get peasants that spawn from your main building: the hut. One peasant spawns at a time, the spawn rate decreases as you get more population. Then you have to send them to gather resources, building or training. - Each building gives a different training. Shooting range turns the peasant into archers, the dojo into spearmen, etc. You can also combine trainings to get different units. Since only one peasant spawns at a time and you can only train peasants one by one this gets tedious really fast. If you lose half of your army in a skirmish replentishing it back takes you forever as new peasants need to spawn, you have to keep training them, upgrading them in the skills buildings and so on and so forth. - Due to all of the forementioned, building outposts is a nay-nay. You need all 3 basic buildings to train plus the hut to spawn new peasants, plus the skill buildings... - Finally, the AI is stupid. Your armies will often disobey, they'll suicide if you let them be or you'll have to micromanage them one by one and tell them to hold position which sometimes leads them into not even defending. Moving your units will cause these orders to expire and therefore you'll have to order them to stand their ground one by one again. - AS a side note, it's ridiculous how easy it is to missclick, how often units refuse to move to certain spots due to collision range being huge and there's also no unit data or stats.

bugs

Game is great at all, but there are lot of bugs there, for example "black map", or when i go with the dragon clan, it always falls down, when i crahs peasant hut of the wolf clan in ?7? mission. Any upcoming update for this great game?? As without that, the game is just "half"

Definitely worth a re-play

I remember I got this gem from a buddy who said it couldn't run on his potato. When I started playing I was sucked into a world of magic, art, history and genuine originality. The three factions I had (Since the expansion wasn't released until later) at my disposal offered so much versatility that I couldn't simply choose a "favorite". I recommend to anyone, regardless of what genre you play.
