Gamespy has done a preview of Lorgraine - The Black Standard. This upcoming strategy game with a fantasy setting is developed by Kapooki Games. Here's a bit from the preview:
Each race has six types of characters in the current beta version. For the Fomor, the default lineup is six Goll spearmen, two Gaebolg crossbowmen, a sword-wielding Coranoch, a heavy-hitting Diel, the war machine Urkurshléa, and the hero Maor. The Tuatha characters are similar. Like chess, pieces have different abilities, such as movement rate, amount of damage from attacks, and vitality. For instance, the Maor can move one square and does moderate damage with its melee attack, while the Gaebolg can move two squares and shoot up to three squares away. This is only the first level of strategy in the game. |
