War of Dwarves and Orcs
I'm a huge fan of the books and Tolkien. This is my thank you as a fan.
Orcs, Dwarves, elves, humans and others fight for control of Arda. Ideal for beginners.
The game ends when the there is one team left. Some games may be limited to 20 turns if requested by the players.
Great for beginners and newcomers to this type of game.
Key features:
- Games can start with any number of players in 2 or 4 teams.
- Games work better with 8, 12, 16 or 20 players in 2 teams
- Free For All, Death Match or Team games
- (Highly) Custom setup
- Players can select nation and initial location on the map
- NPC interaction is allowed
- Actions are given to PCs and Cities
- Neutral (AI) houses & Roaming tribes (maybe)
- Unique military units and powers per fation
- Mechanics to make the game faster (<20 turns) and simpler for beginners
- Combats during movement
- No diplomats or Wizards. All characters are multi class Commander/Rogue
- Simplified economy
