Well what can i say im a huge fan of the squeal “Elven Legacy” (have them on DRM version) and i also highly recommend them and not just this game ^_^

but about this one, i really enjoying it (im near the end of the 2nd campaign out of 3) this game is pure enjoyable tactics, great mechanics also has good story and voice acting, graphics is great for that time abit less for our time, but if you like tactics it wont mind you a bit ^_^

each mission has 3 ratings, the gold one force you to act quick yet smart whic in those kind of game is challenging as you first approach on tactics is - “slow is smooth smooth is fast” but when you add a timed factor slow isnt 100% plausible which force you to come up with the best tactics to achieve the best outcome (like splitting right your forces to accomplish 2 goals at once, or do risk decisions on the right time like entering a bad terrain with a unit, how to advance fast yet still cover your units, etc).

not many game capture those aspect completely, this one does - if you like tactics and challenges - get it! ^_^

I played Elven Legacy before I was on Steam. Nice game, although I never did finish the campaign.

MRLW

may i ask why you didn’t finish it? ^_^

Trent

Eh, I just sometimes get bogged down with TBS games. I’m not happy with how something goes, so I reload. I finish a scenario with 2 stars instead of 3, so I start over. I play agonizingly slow anyway. In King’s Bounty: Legend (another TBS game), I played for 483 hours working on a no-loss campaign, which I eventually abandoned. Nothing wrong with the game itself.

i do that to,those are really challenging goals to aim to tho i tend to finish the games as i know that if i wont i will restart them all over again and that will prevent me from experiencing new games and new challenges…but i have as well few games that are on “unfinished status” as well from the same reasons you mentioned ^_^
