An army composed of creatures that "dislike" each other lowers their "morale", making them much less effective in combat. Although the player's commission can be raised in a variety of ways, such as maintaining a garrison of forces at a captured castle, if his costs exceed his income for too long, and he runs out of money, his army will abandon him.įurthermore, each of the various army units have either a positive, neutral, or negative predisposition towards other. However, as their strength increases, so does the amount of gold required to retain them, which must be paid weekly. Most of these creatures are significant upgrades from the normal human forces available to the player at the King's castle, and are required to defeat the tougher villain armies. The location of the sceptre, the artifacts and which castles the villains inhabit are all randomized each game, adding to its replayability.Īs the player explores, he encounters various types of creatures native to the different continents, some of which are able to be recruited. Some of these chests represent various events that increase the hero's inherent abilities, such as magical strength or weekly income others may contain one of eight artifacts, which themselves provide a piece of the map, in addition to conferring their own unique powers. Along the way, numerous treasure chests are encountered scattered across the map. With each defeat of the progressively stronger villain's army, the character claims (along with the reward money for the "King's Bounty" on that villain) another piece of the map revealing the sceptre's burial location. The hero is given a weekly commission from the king to track down 17 villains across the 4 continents. If the sceptre is not recovered before King Maximus dies (varies depending on difficulty setting), the game ends in defeat. For instance, not all the scattered map sections are required if the player is able to correctly determine the location of the sceptre's burial spot before acquiring all 25 map pieces, the game is won. Various details of this task are left to player's discretion, allowing for flexible gameplay. The player leads the hero and his army across the four continents, acquiring up to 25 pieces of a map revealing the hidden location to the Sceptre of Order before King Maximus dies.
