Warlords III: Darklords Rising

Darklords Rising is still as good as it was when me and my dad used to play it together on the family computer. A fun cocktail of the classic fantasy tropes with truly awesome artwork for some of the units and a short list of wonderfully dark campaigns to play through, a strategic player can win a methodical military victory without relying on hero characters... but a high-level warrior or wizard is capable of destroying entire armies single-handed. Some of the art has changed in the GOG version - perhaps because of differences in european versus american standards - and I would love the opportunity to play Reign of Heroes, the game that this was technically an expansion for, because that was always dad's favourite. The music was better, he'd tell me. But all told, this version of Darklords is still a very solid adaption of a very enjoyable game.

Just one of those old turn based games you can put lots of hours in and enjoy every time

Love all the Warlords, grabbed this instantly, but it gives a bogus low disk warning and wont run for more than a couple of minutes. Seems there are know Win 10 issues and running under compatibility or as Admin don't fix them.

Great little game. I just need more scenarios and bigger maps to match the classic Illuria.
