Description:
This is an RTS game base on a fantasy world similar to ancient Europe. The player is the general of the country called Goetilandia. The country was invaded by an unknown enemy at night and 5 cities were under attack. The remaining troops in each city are defending their cities and waiting for your reinforcement. Without your help, all cities will be lost.
Players need to retrieve all five cities from the enemy. The key elements of this game are:
- Players can move their armies using right clicks.
- During the battles in the city, players can choose an attack mode
There are 4 options for players:
- Heavy Attack: The heavy attack will speed up the battle causing both you and your enemy lose battle faster.
- Normal Attack: Default attack pace.
- Defense: Lose less amount of your armies and more likely to survive from a battle, but it will take a longer time to defeat the enemy.
- Retreat: Retreat from a city with your remaining army in the city with penalties and you will lose the city.
The goal is to retrieve as many cities and as you can and have as many kills as you can.
