    Fun, fast and refreshing. It's open to everyone that just wants to get involved with a game that isn't any more difficult to learn than Monopoly.

    Legion Arena is a good buy for any gamer that loves playing General. It satisfies the need for a quick bloody battle and yet still provides enough depth to keep it all interesting.

    I played this game EXTENSIVELY as a young boy. Being able to place/upgrade troops as well as command them in real time was so much fun. ForI played this game EXTENSIVELY as a young boy. Being able to place/upgrade troops as well as command them in real time was so much fun. For YEARS I had forgotten what the name of this game was, and with games like Total Rome and Age of Empires I feel this title got lost to history.

I've gotta say even among modern games this is still and experience that stands the test of time and it still incredibly enjoyable. Definitely a spiritual successor to games like Totally Accurate Battle Simulator and Ultimate Epic Battle Simulator. Especially if you can also obtain the Cult of MIthras expansion it brings more fun and magical abilities to the game.… Full Review »

    What it loses in poor graphics it makes up for in gameplay.. This is one of those games most people don't know about that is really What it loses in poor graphics it makes up for in gameplay.. This is one of those games most people don't know about that is really good... The single player is pretty fun but the multiplayer takes the cake (when people are online)..

There are things to do you can add people to your friends list on xfire and see when they are on so you can play multiplayer. But its a fun game. One of the few new games that I can actually say is a fun game with good replayability.… Full Review »
