SHORT DESCRIPTION
Warlords of Archaios Online is a 2D pixel-art fantasy real-time strategy game. Build a base, command an army, and develop powerful Warlords while competing for resources and treasure on changing battlefields.

ABOUT THE GAME
Choose from the Kingdoms, Orcs, Undead and Elves, each with its own units, buildings, technologies and god powers. Gather gold, wood, food and favor; grow a stronghold; and send your forces beyond the fog of war. Warlords gain levels, learn abilities and equip items found in battle or bought from traders. Neutral camps, a day/night cycle, dynamic weather and natural disasters give you more to consider than the opposing army. Play against AI or challenge other players in multiplayer. Archaios also exists as a free tabletop miniature wargame, with downloadable rules and printable model files.

KEY FEATURES
- Four factions with distinct armies, technologies, buildings and god powers.
- Base building and resource management: gold, wood, food and favor.
- Warlords with levels, abilities, inventories and battlefield roles.
- Randomly generated maps, neutral camps, treasure, day/night and weather.
- Solo battles against AI, plus online and LAN play in supported editions.
- Save and share replays of your battles.
