Has anyone tried this game? could a smooth brained person like me enjoy it? I found Dominions and Conquest of Elysium too much menuing and strategy for my taste

I tried it, it unfortunately somewhat sucks.
The elves are the worst faction, which pains me as an elf-fag. Just a really bad starting position, sandwiched between two strong factions, and your units are awful and need a lot of experience to get going.
Kinda fun for a while, especially if you like just seeing stuff happening and how the factions fight each other (with you taking part). There sure is not much depth overall, but I guess that's point of this arcady TW-like.

Too many elf lovers here, are the other factions THAT uninteresting?

You probably would like it. The menus are a bit annoying, but once you get used to it they're just a little bit of busy work. I've been pretty addicted to it lately. For some reason they "updated" all of the VN backgrounds to ai shit though.

Honestly it's peak but it's very overwhelming imo, the UI is awful.

Yeah, it's not too difficult of a game. I don't know if the other campaigns are substantially different than Reinald, but you really only have to put serious thought into the first half of the game at worst. Then you'll snowball so incredibly quickly you can turn your brain off.

Yeah I played it as the lizardmen. They have a very limited troop roster and hero roster which made it a challenge but it was fun trying to manoeuvre troops to try and get terrain advantage. The plus side is that I think they're infantry is straight up the best. Managed to kill the demons.But it's pretty simple. I tried playing another faction but it was too samey.

Been a while since I've played so bear with me for not remembering the names. The anime protag human dude with the guns and furry GF in the northwest is definitely the strongest faction. I really enjoyed playing the special story-ish mode where you play as the brat princess's guardian and escape your country after it falls.
I tried to do the desert guy campaign and it was brutal, even though I expanded really rapidly at first. but maybe I'll give it another try some day. I think you have to basically pray for the musket guys to collapse before they reach your borders, but I felt like I was falling behind the entire time.
Frogs were very fun and strong, too.

Anon11/28/25, 17:13No.2267572
This game could use a remaster. The story and factions are interesting, te combat and management are nice, but it aged horribly and the controls/hotkey scheme is like pulling out your fingernails. The game was designed with those niche weirdo japanese keyboards/controllers from the 2000's so everything is is extremely counterintuitive in the UI.

the way the game ranks the difficulty of each start is pretty odd. Apoitakara, which you need to rely on RNG to not get eradicated on the first turn, is 3, above Fevnir or Musket.1. Makan, Crime
2. Cunitz, Gug
3. Apoitakara, Alfheim, Alcatraz
4. Musket, Lion, Reinald, Fevnir
5. Castusi haven't played most of the southern factions but imo the ranking of easiest to hardest is something like
Musket > Gug > Crime > Fevnir > Reinald > Cunitz > Makan > Alcatraz > Lion > Apoitakara > Alfheim > Castus

Speaking of naval maps, I find it funny how instead of giving them boats the dev just left the troops to swim around the ocean
A
Anon12/01/25, 02:17No.2272440
man, makan is rough to play. i should've rated them even lower. you're surrounded by brick walls outside of the swamp. southwest has panchaia that has mages which will melt you so you have to let lion take it first. the primeval forest is obviously brutal, but the lake next to it also had jellyfish that will delete your frontline (I kited them into the forests on the edge of the map). cerberus hills has the stall snails versus your slow-ass walking speed, and ausonia is elves (which I'm thankfully allied with).
and what do i get now that i've broken through castus? fucking musket with near level 20 units.

Alcatraz was way more fun than I expected. A lot easier, too. They're basically "What if Castus but good?" The trick I found was to have an army of EITHER pirates or rogues and deploy them according to the circumstance. rogues are extremely fast, have a ranged attack, and are very fast on every terrain except water, which pirates are fast on. Group formation, disable their melee attacks, and kite the enemy forever. You even outspeed lizards in the swamp. For the tougher fights (like Gug & Lion, the later of which was by far the hardest to fight because of all the mages), bring Dina or whoever else you've got. You've got a big variety of heroes to begin with and can recruit more, but none of the stupid OP ones. Wishbone's special is also very potent.
Also, their starting location might be the best in the game; you can take out the Fevnir nights EASILY on turn two with Dina before they take even a single location, and then you have NO ONE immediately threatening you for a good few turns while you grab everything and instantly catapult to strongest force on the continent. The entire region between Castus and Gug is uncontested, giving you free EXP, and making it easy to take out Gug early on. Arsonia Fort or w/e. I had a permanent safety net between Frogland and Alfheim by just not taking the fort that borders the forest, so I was safe to expand into Cunitz.Also, Dina is by FAR best girl. her storyline is so fucking cute and I will fucking never forgive the dev for not letting us have her alt dress as a toggle. also Rex is the biggest faggot in the game.
