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. Those who are not ready for the defeat should stay away. 1075eedd30 Title: Legions of AshworldGenre: Indie, StrategyDeveloper:JugilusPublisher:Wastelands InteractiveRelease Date: 4 Jul, 2014 Legions Of Ashworld Ativador Download [hack] There are a few elements to this game that could have been done better- more characterization and new scenarios\/greater re-playability, and if so would have really launched it into the territory of being one of the greats. Still a very solid choice, and I'm excited to see more games like this or even some custom maps.8\/10 so close to amazing, but a great case study nonetheless. A lone commander ferrying supplies to my main army got eaten by 16 lions.. LEGIONS OF ASHWORLD VERDICTThat\u2019s Legions of Ashworld\u2019s greatest problem, really, a lack of character. Beyond the likeable visuals it\u2019s a very dry, repetitive experience that never engages you or makes you care about defending your kingdom. There\u2019s too little at stake and not nearly enough reason to keep you trudging about the wastes. The art style is lovely and there\u2019s clearly a great affection on behalf of the developers for classic strategy\/RPG hybrids, but Legions of Ashworld quickly becomes bogged down in endless army movement, uninteresting combat and micromanagement. The core elements of a decent game are there, but there\u2019s no meat on the bones.TOP GAME MOMENTExploring uncharted territory and meeting a new ally who provides you with much-needed supplies and troops is admittedly satisfying, but not nearly as satisfying as it should be.. I like this game. I have not played very much of it, but it is a decent very old school wargame (I'm thinking of Warlords on the Commodore PET). Logistics, supply, exploration and army building are the key components here. I enjoy recruiting armies to my cause, then being able to control them. I like building up my armies, searching for magic items and beasties to supplement my army. I wish the combat had at least some tactical components, but it is what it is. It's about positioning your armies, taking out the enemy armies when you have the chance, and building experience to take on stronger armies. I have just barely gotten into the game, but I will be spending some time trying to beat this game. Unfortunately, and this is a HUGE disappointment, there is only one campaign. Once you beat it, that's it. I guess you can play again on the harder difficulty level.The developer needs to come out with more campaigns. Hopefully this game will do well enough in the marketplace to let him\/her support this game for a while.I recommend this game.Onwards!. 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)!. 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.. Very clearly influenced by Mike Singleton's classic "Lords Of Midnight", Legions of Ashworld vastly improves the now decades old games' interface, but loses almost all of the charm that made LoM interesting. Characters have no real background other than a name and a race. No character traits that made them more or less likely to recruit others, as in Doomdark's Revenge.It just feels flat, uninteresting, and leaves me with no real motivation to see the war through. The first person view makes wargaming finicky and require far more clicks and actions than it would have otherwise taken. Without the charm of exploring a world full of unique characters, why bother?. Decent first person strategy\/midnightlike\/unite 'em up with an intuitive interface and nice graphics and music. It is quite barebones though, even when compared to the games that inspired it (no non-combat victory conditions or character traits for example). Play it but only if you already have LoM remakes (I think the developer made graphics for them).
