Empires in Ruins
Empires in Ruins is the story-driven bastard child of 4X and Tower Defense. The Western Marches are on fire. Will the grumpy and drunken Sergeant Hans Heimer be the one to quell them? Lead 4X-style world map strategy, reclaim your provinces, rebuild settlements and authority through your rogue officers. Fight in tower defense and RTS-style bloody battles with up to 17 different towers and 5 resource buildings against up to 23 unique enemy units, each with one or more special abilities. The world of Empires in Ruins is gritty, foul-mouthed and more like the real world than you'd hope.
Story
In the Western Marches, far from the capital of the Principality of Koth, an uprising is burning brightly. The neighboring kingdom of Krovan is flexing its military muscles, as the long grudge against Koth has not yet been settled. And who should be sent into this bloody uprising but the most surly, unruly and drunken sergeant in the principality, accompanied only by a ragtag army? So begins the story of Sergeant Heimer, shrouded in endless questions. Who is pulling the strings, why and what is really happening? Step into the boots of the most unlikely hero of all time and lead your men into a fight for survival and maybe even victory. (Maybe?)
