About War and Empires
War and Empires is a medieval war strategy game. Barbarians expand into the empire and occupy its holy city, a symbol of imperial power. You play as a lord in an alliance, recruiting famous officers, training troops and joining other rebellious alliances to defeat the invaders, retake the city and restore the empire.
Command your troops
On the large battlefield map, you can freely command multiple troops to march, garrison, take roundabout routes or flank enemies. The game’s free-marching system lets you rely on leadership and strategy to win, even without a strong army.
Fight across varied terrain
The 3D map includes grasslands, snowfields, deserts, oceans and other terrain. It is also home to wild monsters: orcs, Boar Riders, Trolls, Wizards, Treants, Giants and Dragons.
Build alliances
Players interact in real time and can form alliances for multiplayer field battles. You may face an individual opponent, an entire Guild or more, so alliances bring players together to fight on the same side.
Recruit heroes and troops
At the start, you choose a civilization, each with combat units unique to that country. You recruit historical heroes such as King Arthur, Caesar and Attila, then train and strengthen them to develop their potential and lead your army into battle. The goal is to defeat the invaders, regain the holy city and establish a strong Guild.
