Sands of Salzaar

Sands of Salzaar - The old Empire that once ruled the Salzaar desert has fallen, and now its lands are divided by warring tribes. The player creates their own leader and decides whether they will become a blademaster, a mage, or something in between. The difficulty of the races increases unevenly: somewhere you come across a squad stronger than an entire army. Having gathered a small detachment, the hero starts with small things: caravans, bandits and local feuds. Then a city, recruits and a whole army appear, which can be led in attacks on neighbors. Orc, human and nomadic factions are at war with each other and with the hero, so the choice of allies is never final. Mercenaries join for money and experience, and some of them are revealed only after completed requests. Between battles there is trade and craft, and this significantly speeds up the development of the city. There is no less politics here than there are battles. You can negotiate, trade and form alliances with factions, or you can declare war and take other people’s lands by force. Dungeons hide treasures and secrets, and for the sake of rare finds it is worth going down even to dark and cramped places. Battles take place in real time, and the outcome depends on the placement of units. Each victory strengthens the leader, and along with the growth of influence, it becomes clear that a more serious threat lies behind the local feuds. The campaign is free: you can walk around the map for years, completing assignments, or you can follow the story. The secrets of the Old Empire are revealed gradually, and to solve the mystery it is worth looking into the farthest dungeons. For everyone who loves oriental fantasy and wants to gather their own army in the desert.
