About Rise of the Foederati
Rise of the Foederati was formerly an online, massive multiplayer, now single-player focused strategy game that combines real-time strategy with turn-based combat. You play as a leader of one of the many tribes surrounding the Roman borders in mid-5th century AD, and your objective is to lead your warriors into raids, skirmishes and battles to survive. More important than winning battles, however, is to wade through the intricacies of managing your warband, as your soldiers will support your leadership as long as you bring them loot and glory. A weak leader, however, may face discontent warriors that will desert, abandon formations, disrespect your commands, or even challenge you to take control of your group!
Spine-chilling, realistic immersion
What you hear is what it is. A knife stab. A shield blocking an incoming sword. The jingling sound of coins inside a bag. Nearly every sound you hear in Rise was recorded in studios to be as realistic as possible. The eerie feeling before a battle now feels more tense than ever, with dynamic music that shifts with a battle's progress.
Deep, intricate, and tactical gameplay
Witness your soldiers improve as they wage wars with you.
Historical accuracy
The Dark Ages (or, more accurately, Migration Period) as you have never seen before. Rise of the Foederati has historical accuracy down to the most minimal detail. From the pronounciation of one of the dozen extinct languages of the period to the design of warriors' armaments, the experience you have is as historically accurate as it gets.
Politics paved with power and casualties
An ever-changing political scene awaits you. Within each swing of the pendulum of power, you'll be forced to make decisions that may have long-term repercussions. For example, if a huge force from a previously neutral tribe attacks your own, it may require your warband to ally itself with old enemies against this new threat.
Rally your friends, raid your enemies, protect your tribe*
Hundreds of players are present at the same time in Rise. Your movements and battles are present in real-time; there are no instances in the world. Your actions make a mark in the world. The more people you bring to your side, the bigger your actions are.

Cool idea, but the interface is awful (from the XXth century, very slow). Please reduce number of clicks needed, especially when selecting attack mode, especially when i try to repeat an attack - why should i select it again from menu every turn? Also I keep constantly misclicking units on battlefield, pls provide special icons panel to choose from (or hotkeys).8 found this helpful
A super nice strategy and management game - control your army to victory, level up your men, buy new weapon, armor and more to make your army ready for the next battle - timed battles, you have to think your strategy plan fast... A lot of play hours... good zoom in the game and a great atmosphere around the hole game setup.2 found this helpful
The game has huge potential, a historically accurate multiplayer strategy, with massive battles - it's just amazing! But we must wait for the release. See my review for more details.

Has potential. Needs a lot of work. Lacks basic functions. There are quality games for less or about as much money.2 found this helpful
this had promise but now is another abandoned EA. Spend your money elsewhere.
Alright, where to Start? First of all, it is obviously not finished, there's some bugs here and there. But, if you just want to play it for fun, or don't care about clicking. I do recommend this. It's set in a side of History that nearly no game covers. And the Developers are still trying to get this game to work, Kudos for that determination! They have already admitted this will take time, so why not wait? It's...Fairly accessible, in my opinion, and they do need the funds to get this ongoing. So i say, yes, buy this game, let's have some matches, let's fight for who gets the spoils, and let's all just make this the Wild West (Hispania Edition)
