A real-time strategy game set in a fantasy version of medieval folklore. You build castles, manage an economy, and command troops, mythical creatures, and heroes in sieges. Story campaigns follow King Arthur, Siegfried, and Vlad Dracula, while skirmishes pit you against computer-controlled lords or other players.
