In this Tolkien+D&D inspired game when you choose your alignment - Earth, Water, Chaos, Death etc.
You control a small squad of warriors - kind of like a fellowship in Lord of the Rings.
The game has pretty outdated graphics and it sucks by today's standards, not just because of graphics.
But even though its a old game it has very interesting game mechanics that I haven't seen before
(when combined altogether):
- the ability to control a "fellowship" of warriors, mages and thieves, a company of "heroes"
- like in WC3 the leader/hero can hold artifacts and items
- has both campaign mode and battle mode, somewhat like Total War games, although battles are
top-down
- raids on dungeons (but its not like MMORPG/Dragon Age raids, its more like dwarves wanting to reclaim Moria from the orcs and they exterminate every Orc in Moria along the way)
- multi story dungeons
- you manage buildings and resources, recruit units from buildings, gain resources from buildings, but the same time you can control a RPG-like "fellowship". WC3 has this game mechanic covered.
- us vs. them gameplay - multiple teams and enemies.
