The Swords & Sandals world just got a whole lot bigger with the all-new Swords & Sandals: Crusader! Step out of the gladiator arena and onto the field as you lead hundreds of troops into battle against the toughest lords in the realm.

Swords & Sandals Crusader is an epic mix of fast paced arcade combat and RPG strategy. Lay siege to castles in the pouring rain, fight a giant Cyclopes in dank swampland or send your cavalry against a horde of skeletons in the heat of the scorching desert.

Featuring particle weather and spell effects and a variety of army and game types,
Swords & Sandals Crusader takes off where Swords & Sandals 2 ended, as the battle against the undead Emperor Antares intensifies. The fate of Brandor is up for grabs, put on your sandals and stake your claim as the finest crusader in the realm.

Please bear in mind that this is just the **DEMO** version of the game, some of the features are locked, for those familiar with the series, thats just how we do it and we hope the demo can provide you with plenty of free entertainment as is. For those who really get stuck in the game, the full version is available for download and features a stack more stuff. Cheers, Oliver

***************
Special note: VERSION 1.0.5 has just been uploaded to Newgrounds. Finally the arrows bug has been fixed, and the battles should not freeze any more. Some more stability fixes are also patched as well as improved spellcasting AI.

Also has a lot of balance fixes for troops, cavalry is much more powerful, colossus less so, the patch also fixes the bug where your troops stop doing damage, improved blood effects and the game now shows you how many command points your enemy has....amongst other improvements. Will continue to patch as I find more bugs.

"Great game! Found some MAJOR glitches though..."

date: May 13, 2008

Hopefully you'll be able to fix these glitches...

I have discovered two glitches while playing this game; I like to call them the Duplication and ExceedMax Glitches.

Duplication Glitch: If you transfer all of your campaign troops (so that there is only 1 soldier remaining in the campaign army) into a garrison in one of your territories and then your opponent attacks that territory and is defeated, then however many soldiers are in the garrison are duplicated and added to the campaign army.

ExceedMax Glitch: After garrisoning a territory you keep your campaign army on the same territory. Your opponent then attacks that territory and is defeated. However many troops are in the garrison is added to your campaign army and by doing so it will exceed the maximum number of allowed troops in the campaign army.

Both of these glitches can be exploited as much as the player wants. (When I entered the final battle with Arglaxx I had 400 Guards, 200 Champions, 100 Knights, 400 Bowmen, 10 Catapults, and 10 Colossi... and 100% chance of victory.)

A word of advice to a player exploiting the ExceedMax Glitch... always do AutoBattle, never Take the Field... if you do the lag will cause the game to crash.

Happy playing and hopefully you can fix these glitches!
