Welcome to the Era of Legends!


This is an age of wonders, a time when creatures of legend freely roamed the land. The cities of man are lorded over by giant monsters known as the Nephilim. Each of these Titan Kings are as much as five times the height of a man, and so powerful that they can lay waste to entire armies by themselves. But this power has made them cruel, and they treat their human subjects terribly. In turn, the humans squabble and treat each other poorly as well. Slavery and murder are common, and it is truly a dark time.


You are the human leader of Lasthallow, a small settlement of hunters and farmers, a task you have grown to love. One day however, a group of wandering travelers comes into the village and tells how they saw slavers bearing the livery of Zeurus capture some of your outlying farmers. In horror you race out to the farms to find the travelers were telling the truth: your people have been taken.


Zeurus is one of the most powerful of the Titan Kings, a Nephilim known as a tyrant and slavemaster. You want to race to save your people, but you know running in blind will just cause the death of those you love. So you decide that in order to make it past the large number of bandit camps and cultist settlements, that you will need an army. The rest of your village is loath to risk angering that Titan King, and as such make no move to try and save their kin. So you decide to call for volunteers, and begin to train them with swords and bows. Very few answer the call at first, and most of those

are lured by the promise of steady food. It isn’t much, but it’s a start.


Zeurus is sure to have more men, that are better equipped. But if you don’t try, your people will spend their lives in slavery, kept from those they love. And so it begins...

The game is great, and the idea too, but the map of battle is always the same, you need to improve it because is always the same, capture the central village and go for the cstle

Crazily detailed story with good gameplay mechanics, but at the same time, it's confusing to follow the first time

WarMageDev responds:

Which is confusing to follow: the gameplay, the tutorial or the story?

The story is not that complicated: the nephilim king's slavers capture some of your farmers. You try to rescue them fighting back.
Originally I wanted a comic telling the story.

cool beans
