[h1] Strategy game with clunky controls. Slow gameplay with mostly empty maps. Lots of setting up like different troops and equipment for each. Moving each troop individually feels like a chore. Overall not fun and tedious to play. [/h1]7 found this helpful

Developed and published by YorkshireRifles, it combines large-scale strategic conquest with granular, squad-level combat, creating an experience that is as demanding as it is ambitious. It’s not a game that eases players in; instead, it expects patience, curiosity, and a willingness to engage with systems that are often dense and only partially explained. The game unfolds across two interconnected layers. On the strategic level, players are tasked with expanding their influence across a vast landmass, managing resources, population growth, and military deployment while competing against multiple rival factions. This layer gives the game a strong sense of scale, as decisions made here ripple down into the tactical encounters that follow.
