Fantasy General II

Fantasy General II is an excellent turn-based strategy game with a huge amount of depth and variety. There are many different unit, abilities and tactical possibilities, and watching your army grow throughout the campaign is extremely satisfying. The campaign is long, substancial and filled with meaningful choices that can significan change your progression. 100% steam achievements Time : 178.4H Completion Difficulty : 9/10 Playthroughs : 2 minimun - 3 recommended / campaign Missables : Yes - campaign choices DLC Requirements : Yes Guide recommended : Yes - for campaign choices Notable requirements : Complete all the campaign on the highest difficulty and ironman

I played the original back in the day, but this version has really improved upon the original in visuals, sound and gameplay. It's also easy to drop in and out of the game whenever you need a break, not like some games that I've played that I forget how to play and have to start over with the tutorial! :)

Amazing turn-based strategy game. So rich in terms of units and heroes variety. Also good story. Probably the best of his kind.

Bought it on sale for 7,80€ and I must say for that price it's worth it. I'm presumably close to the end of the main campaign but also very close to dropping it. Maps get too big and repetitive so it becomes a chore and there's less content towards the end. I played on normal difficulty so my whole army is upgraded to the max and there's no more feeling of progression. They're also powerful enough that I don't have to overthink my manoeuvres, but I imagine increasing the difficulty would make the enemies more health-spongey or just spawn more units and... that sounds like more work when I am already wishing to finish and move on. The first half of the game is fun, though, and it has that "just one more turn" effect on me. Writing isn't awesome but it isn't terrible either. Good enough for my taste.

I had this game for free for so long and I only tried it now. It may look like not much at start but after a few missions the game becomes a fun tactical puzzle with interesting campaign that forces you to develop a diversed mix of units. I started on highest difficulty and the game is challenging, forcing a reload here and there. I've only played vanilla but I'm planning to pick up all dlcs on discount. While the dlc policy may seem kinda scetchy with each campaign behind a seperate dlc, vanilla campaign is really lengthy + it offers some branching due to player's decisions.

good game
