However, history has a tendency to repeat itself...

Without warning, a village near the border of the Sacred Land - where Ancient Heart rested - was invaded by the

merciless Orcs. In response to this foul act, Hironeiden declared war against the evil Vellond and began their invasi-

Elements that affect your strategy

Weather, ground, and unit relationship affects the battle directly, and requires quick decisions and precise commands

Weather

• Rain, Wind, Sun…

- When raining, the visibility is very poor and fire attacks become useless.

- Ranged weapon’s accuracy and power varies depending on the direction and speed of wind.

- Facing the Sun will blind you and make your attack less effective.

Ground

• The ground condition will decide your moving speed and defense rate.

- The duration and damage of fire attacks increase in the forests or grass lands, but decrease in

the swamps or wastelands.

- Defense rate against ranged weapon increases for the units in the forest. Some aerial units

cannot attack targets in the forest at all.

- Offensive power and range increases when attacking downhill.

- Dark Elves are slowly healed in the forest.

Units

• Performance of each unit is decided by its job, formation density, and attacking direction.

- A food chain among the units exist, and an effective combination that suits your strategy should

be created.

- Aerial units will inflict damage when they crash into your troops. A careful strategy on their usage

is required.

- When in a close formation, the attack and defense rate of your troops increase. But their mobility

is sacrificed and they become invulnerable to catapults and meteor.

- If your attack is directed at the side or back of the enemy, the damage is increased and you can

earn Skill Points.

- Powerful spells and helpful skills can be used by consuming Skill Points, whose effective use

can change the outcome of the battle.

Heroes turn the tide of battle.

• Your hero’s performance can even defeat an enemy force twice larger than yours.

• Player controlled main heroes can have up to 2 ing sub-heroes exist.

• When the main hero’s HP runs out, he will be disabled for a certain duration, which becomes a

big factor in the battle.
