However, the usual aspects of a classic MMORTS are still there, of course. You’ll need to build up your kingdom by managing your resources, defenses and your army. With a formidable army at hand, you can then subject other kingdoms under your rule and influence! There is also a new marshals system, whereby marshals are needed to head each battalion in your army, as well as a crafting system to provide crafted gear for your marshals The game even has remarkable graphics and an excellent music to boot.However, we are sad to say that the game has just recently been shut down (just last month) and the game is no longer available.
