Eador Video Game Series

Strategy 19 April 2013

A fantasy turn-based strategy game inspired by such series as Heroes of Might & Magic and Disciples. Eador: Masters of the Broken World takes place in the titular world which has fallen apart into numerous pieces scattered across the whole galaxy. Each piece is ruled by a different ruler. The player assumes the role of one of such rulers, embarking on a quest to defeat the rivals and unite all the lands. The action has several layers: in the global layer one decides about conquering new lands and researching technologies; on the strategy map one can manage cities, build armies and attack settlements. The battles take place on rather small tactical maps and the key to victory is to use the advantages of units, commanders’ abilities and the shape of the surface.

Strategy 07 August 2009

A turn-based strategy game/RPG inspired by titles such as Heroes of Might & Magic, Disciples, or King’s Bounty. The action of Eador: Genesis takes place in a mangled world ruptured by a massive outburst of magic energy. The player assumes control of one of the leaders that control a number of leftover specks of land with a goal to unite the run-down universe and bring it back to former glory. The path to our objective involves colonizing explored areas, including unique settlements, as well as turn-based combat against monsters and hostile armies. Aside from exploration, our hero is bound to a city that can be expanded by constructing new buildings or used to recruit military units. Combat plays out similarly to what we could see in other games of the genre – the battles are influenced by terrain type as well as the available abilities which differ based on the chosen race or class.
