Overview
Description

Warlords Battlecry II drops you into the fantasy world of Etheria, where you choose one of twelve distinct races, each with its own hero type, buildings, and resource needs. As a hero you guide your forces across a non‑linear campaign, capturing all sixty‑seven regions to achieve total domination. The game blends real‑time strategy with role‑playing elements, offering both single‑player and multiplayer modes. Build armies, research upgrades, and customize your hero while battling friends or AI opponents in a richly detailed fantasy setting.

Warlords Battlecry III expands the classic Battlecry series with a deep RPG‑style hero system, allowing you to develop persistent heroes and a retinue of followers as you wage war across Etheria. The game blends real‑time strategy combat with role‑playing progression, offering massive battles, new races, and an upgradeable castle. Between battles you can trade items, earn titles, and customize your forces, all while enjoying the removal of hero and unit caps and new special abilities for high‑level heroes.
