Easy and fun to play...
User Rating: 7.5 | The Golden Horde PC
The game features the on goin' war between the crusaders,russians and mongolians in the XIII century . The game features three distinctive nations, each with it's own architecture, weapons and heroes. The interface looks almost as if it was stolen from Warcraft III ( even the cursor :D ) so if you played W3 you'll easily master the controls. The key part of the game consists of customizable battalions. Each soldier can be armed differently from the last . Each unit features a main weapon slot and a shield slot and weapons vary from nation to nation ranging in from spears , axes and swords to bows. As for the graphics they are simple yet nice-looking giving you a nice perspective ( again the camera movement is EXACTLY like in W3 ) The main problem is the absolutely DUMB AI - at least in custom game mode. After just a few enemy-unit thrashin' the Computer halts all attacks against you , and even when the AI is at it's prime , you can still finish it off with 5 bowmen and a Hero .
All in all the game is worth playing on a lazy afternoon when you have no idea of what to play .
P.S. if anyone wants to play on LAN please gimme a PM cuz the AI is as I said before.
