    When it comes to reimagining decades old games, there are only two options: change the graphics and release it as is, dated gameplay and all, or keep the general idea and build everything from scratch. Not surprisingly, both of them lead to an uphill battle. [Issue#241, p.46]

    Despite having a lengthy campaign and sound gameplay mechanics, a number of technical hiccups, randomized rewards, and egregious repetitiveness hold back Fantasy General 2. It tries to combine a unique fantasy RPG experience with wargaming strategy, but it falls just a little bit short on both counts.

    Awesome fantasy strategy with RPG elements. Your troops collects XP, gains levels and perks, can be equipped with items. Game play is reallyAwesome fantasy strategy with RPG elements. Your troops collects XP, gains levels and perks, can be equipped with items. Game play is really deep and tactical.
    There is lots of single player content even there is just one playable faction for campaign. Haven't checked out multiplayer yet. Worthy successor for Fantasy General I.
    Totally 10/10 game! If you like strategy games or are new with the genre and like fantasy stuff, you should get this immediately!

Thanks to the "weapons" system, no unit is ever completely useless and you can take your army in many directions. Tactically and strategically engaging, this game lives up to it's predecessor.

    Not even close to matching the original. Awful in all ways but graphics; stick to the original Fantasy General.
