DESCRIPTION

Warlords, designed by Steve Fawkner, is a fast paced strategy war game that pits you against any mix of seven other human or computer controlled opponents in the fantasy world of Illuria. You play as one of the eight empires or kingdoms of Illuria and must eliminate all other opponents with the ultimate goal of controlling at least forty-one of the eighty cities (castles) spread out over the Illuria game map. Each city has specific income and defense ratings and limits on the number of military units they can produce. Also, the eight factions (Dwarves, Elvallie, Horse Lords, Lord Bane, Orcs of Kor, Selentines, Sirians and Storm Giants) that make up the populous in Warlords have distinctive qualities and you'll have several modes of conquest (e.g., combat/war, economic warfare, hero intervention, pacts with allies such as wizards or dragons) available to assist you in your task. ~ Michael L.
