About This Game

For generations the continent of Forsena endured war, but in 214 the kingdom of Almekia finally defeated Norgard, bringing a fragile peace to the land. The peace lasted less than a year. In the second month of 215, Admiral Zemeckis murdered King Henguist in cold blood, toppled Almekia from within, and proclaimed himself emperor of a new nation: Esgares. Consumed by ambition and a lust for total domination, Zemeckis immediately turned his armies outward, launching campaigns against every neighboring country. What follows is a continent-wide struggle for survival as the remaining kingdoms fight to resist Esgares's expanding reach.
