    Awesome 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.

    Build up an army of bear riding barbarians and trolls to show the conniving undead empire scum what's what. 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.

    Quite deep and really enjoyable tactical turn based game with a nice twist in the setting that feels a bit fresh und unspent

    Did you play Fantasy General 1? If so, this game plays, looks, and feels exactly how you remember Fantasy Genera 1. Not how it actually was, but how it exists in your memory, ever green, but here for you to enjoy in the modern day.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Worthy successor. Only minor setback is overpower of missile units in contrast to the first game where normally they had support role.… Expand

    A sequel as it should be: taking the original game and adding to it / improving features.

    Everything that's good in strategy games in one game. Very worthy successor, totally exceeded my expectations. Huge fan of the original fantasy general, I came in a little sceptical but was surprised to see such a great strategy game. New features improve the game in every possible way, great inventory system, skill trees, just awesome!

    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]

    For a turn-based strategy battler the scenarios have a quite dramatic flow to them. And the game only gains from it. Even escort missions cease to be just battles and it pays to devise interesting ways to break through the enemy lines [12/2019, p.48]

    A very pleasant turn-based strategy set in a strange world, full of tactical possibilities beyond the traditional “rock, paper, scissors” model. What’s more, there are even RPG elements and dialogue choices!
