How it plays
Two players can share a whole campaign, as allies holding back the hordes or as rivals carving up a collapsing empire, with each battle fought in real time.
Campaign turns pass slowly while the AI moves, so it suits a patient pair over many evenings.
Larger groups can meet in one-off custom battles.
Each player needs a copy.
