About This Game Legions of Ashworld is a turn-based war-game, which brings a sense of adventure to strategic war-gaming with its first-person view of an open world environment. The game is set in a ancient fantasy world of kings, wizards and fearsome creatures. When a powerful empire invades the lands governed by humans all the realms are plunged into a great conflict. It is the player's task to organise the opposition to the invading forces, uniting the kingdoms into an alliance and ultimately in taking the war back to the invaders.As the various characters encountered across Ashworld are recruited to the player's cause, the player can then move them around the lands, having them performing a variety of activities, such as hiring mercenaries, buying goods and provisions, and attacking hostile forces. The lands of Ashworld contain many places of interest - especially noteworthy are various temples, from those occupied by servants of wizards' orders which provide magic services, to ancient abandoned ruins where valuable magic items can be found. Outside the territories where humans reside other races live who may become important allies if persuaded to join the war. Main features:- an open-world environment where exploration supplements strategic planning and tactical decisions- easy management of resources- hand drawn graphics in the style of classic, golden age, illustration- designed to cater for custom scenarios/moddingSpecial notesLegions of Ashworld is a hard game, suitable for players wanting something different with a lot of challenge.

This game does not deserve the low user review score it has at the moment.I had a great time playing it.It has a new unspent fantasy world and a quite unique scenario:You can not fight the invading enemy forces right on, you have to retreat, build troops, find allies.It is more then worth the 5 bucks.If you like strategy games and a unique scenario give it a try!. I'm on the fence about whether or not I "recommend" this game -- I'm putting it as yes, because I did enjoy my time with it. However, I don't think it's a game for mass audiences. The key aspect of LoA is that it is a STRATEGY game in the truest sense. Not strategy a la real-time-strategy games that in reality emphasize tactics over strategy, this game is about coming up with a grand overarching plan, sticking to it when it's working, modifying it when it's not, and coming up with new ones when your old plan gets blown out of the water.Combat is very simple: Two armies meet, time passes, and people die. The victor is determined purely through strategic-level elements: How many troops are on each side of the field, how rested those troops are, how good those troops are, and what magic influences the field. I appreciate the change of pace.One reason people might want to not buy LoA is that there's only one real campaign right now (plus a tiny tutorial campaign which doesn't count) and it doesn't seem like there's much replay value after you beat that campaign, and once you understand everything the campaign's not that difficult. I beat it on my second or third "real" try (not counting early plays where I didn't know what was going on, some experimental plays where I was intentionally doing "stupid" things in order to learn new tricks, etc) on the medium difficulty.. Very good strategy game heavily inspired by Lords of Midnight.The good:- The world and its inhabitants: Humans, wizards (different schools), lizards, giants etc- UI, much better than LoM. Moving, grouping, item exchange, searching... everything task is just enjoymnet to perform- Graphics, very atmospheric- Wildlife is meaningfull and not just an annoyance. You get food and troops (with specific mages) from them.- There are story elements, although there could be more of them- Addictive, could not stop until finishThe bad:- Too short! main campaign is just 6 hours of gametime- Difficulty level. Got it right on my second (real) playthrough- Any lord can be recruited by any other lord.- The names of the humans are just too much the same, making them difficult to distinguish- Too short!If it contained 20 hours of gameplay I would give LoA a 9,5\/10, but with current length I give it 9-. A fun game harking back to the classic RPG \/ Strategy games of yore. Very polished, fun and challenging.. A lone commander ferrying supplies to my main army got eaten by 16 lions.. This game is a 40 mb file that falls very short of any real depth or complexity. It is very quick to jump into and learn because of how shallow it is. As a fan of strategy games I tend to think of them as games that as mentally engaging, this is not a game that fits that bill. The only thinking involved is understanding the game mechanics, once that is done your journey of entertainment is likely complete. There is simply not alot of content here so for the release price I would say avoid it. The game may be worth revisiting in a few months when it is going for 2-3$ or if it recieves significant content updates, which by significant I mean more than doubling the amount of game mechanics involved. I have my doubts that will happen. So I reccomend waiting for the price drop.. First off, I want to say this could have been a very good game. It has a nice atmosphere, an interesting story, and cool mechanics. It really sucks you into the Universe, where you are attempting to save three kingdoms from an Evil Empire, Mad Wizard, and Devious Cult. You play the game a few times, until you finally pull out a win against the odds... and thats it. The game comes pre-packaged with a single senario (not counting a short tutorial one teaching you the basics of play), and once you beat that senario you have zero reason to play again. Now at 4.99 its hardly a great loss, and you probably got a couple hours of enjoyment out of it, but still. For a game with so much potential its sad to see it fall so flat. Supposedly the game was suppose to feature an editor that let you make and play your own senarios, what was given was a confusing and unhelpful web page with a ZIP file. So instead of a smooth in-game editor, your stuck with a clunky text editor that most non-coders won't be able to master in a reasonable time frame.So if you don't mind paying five bucks for a couple hours of entertainment, then this is for you. If you were looking for a game where you could build an epic storyline full of heros, adventure, and armies, then keep looking.. Legions of AsworldExcellent strategy game with rpg and tactical elements in it. It is a very hard and challenging game. Think about USSR at -41 when Germany assaulted it. Soviets struggled in defensive war at start, until tides turned. Thats what is going on here as well. At start your mission is unity "allies" under the same flag. While doing that, you need to defend land against hostitle and superior force. Slowly you gain power by recruiting more cities under your control and winning battles (hopefully). The game has good re-playability possibilities as there are different ways to achieve these things. For example, if you recruit a powerful king on your side, it will end up to a side quest. Which takes your attention elsewhere, while you are already busy by defending your territory. You also have few wizards under your control. They are good in battle, but can also be used in quests, hunting artifacts and treasures all over the map!A simple and quite good made UI may look strange, but it offers you just what you need to enjoy the game. Well worth 3.74e (holiday sale)!
