Campaigns
Alaric – The trauma of the Hunnic invasion in the 4th century has transformed the Visigothic people. Desperately fleeing their ravaged homeland, they search for a new place to call home. Can their leader, Alaric, secure a new homeland in the territory of the collapsing Roman Empire?
Dracula – History forged an incredible legend around the man who ruled Wallachia in the mid-15th century. Holding his ground against the vast armies of the expanding Ottoman Empire, his cruel tactics made him the most feared man in all of Eastern Europe. Shall his thirst for blood and the loyalty of his soldiers hold the Turks back for good?
Bari – 400 years after the fall of Rome, Italy remains viciously contested as Byzantines, Lombards, Normans, and Muslims covet the southern Italian port of Bari. Experience this chaos through the eyes of a Byzantine family, rising from the common soldiery to the nobility, and preserve the legacy of the Romans!
Sforza – When the Italian princes were too cowardly to get their hands dirty, they paid mercenaries like Sforza. He sold himself to the highest bidder, but always looked for a new opportunity to get rich. Can a man like Sforza achieve his grand ambitions, or will he himself be betrayed?
Prithviraj – The young king Prithviraj is strong, smart, and adored by his people. But what happens when he falls in love with the daughter of his enemy? And will his love be enough to help him save India from invasion?
Battles of the Forgotten – Time has faded the names of many of the greatest leaders ever known. During their age they were famed for their fierceness on the battlefield, their just rule and their quest for power. Witness the path to glory of Richard the Lionheart, Minamoto no Yoritomo, Sultan Osman Ghazi, Khosrau and many more.
