Game Description

It's order vs. chaos as the Overlord returns for more empire-building insanity. In a story inspired by the rise of the Roman Empire, the legions of the Glorious Empire are conquering kingdoms all over the map. No one overrules the Overlord, so it's time to send a message...by sending in your minions.

And, as they obey your every command, they'll please the master by not just destroying armies, but by wrecking buildings, scenery, and everything around them too.
