Howdy, kind souls. I'm trying to identify a game I saw in my teenager-hood, because... well, I'm feeling rather nostalgic and I'd like to go back and see if time has been kind to it. The problem is, I only played it for a few hours at a friend's house, and that was several years ago. So I was hoping for a little help. It's an older strategy game for the PC, in a medieval setting. The game map itself was turn-based, in which you would move armies from one fixed location to another, similar to some of the KOEI historical simulation games, or Defender of the Crown - just nicer to look at. It seems to me you could build castles (either wood or stone, if I'm remembering correctly, which I can't guarantee) at some of the locations. Armies stationed at the same location could exchange soldiers, but this ability would be lost if the armies had members that were of conflicting "nationality" (could be race, religion, etc, I can't recall for certain). Battles, on the other hand, were real-time. Some of the units I remember are archers and knights on horseback (because that narrows it down...). It seems to me you could also pour hot oil on invaders from the castle walls if you were defending a fortress. Multiple unit selection was supported, and I'm reasonably certain that units had those little green health bars, like pretty much every other RTS since Dune II. As to exactly when I played it... I'm not perfectly sure, but by my best guess it would have been 1997 - 2002. Things released after that (such as Knights of Honor) naturally aren't what I'm looking for. Thanks in advance, all.
