Game it self

The game is based on changing of the day/night - in each time have advantage another type of units. Lawful units are stronger during the daytime, chaotic units are in opposite more powerful during night. Each units have different skills so it mean different strengths and weaknesses (there are almost 200 hundred different units).

Important aspect of the game is also terrain, which, according to the type of unit can help improve/debase the abilities to defend or attack. There is also different types of attacks with different types of weapons. In game is only one staple - gold, source of the gold is each village. So it´s important to settle the villages. For the gold you can recruit the new units in firs level (or in latest levels recall the old one with some experiences or in higher levels). Each unit differ in speed of moving, weapons which can use, type of attack, lawful/chaotic identity, and preferred terrain.
