About the Game
FOR THOSE WHO WANT MORE THAN ADVENTURE!
SEQUEL TO THE AWARD WINNING WARLORDS III
Warlords IV is a unique blend of role playing and turn base strategy gaming. The game centres around your hero, who plays a pivotal role in the success or failure of your military and economic efforts.
Warlords IV is set in the troubled land of Etheria. Old foes such as Dwarves, Elves and Orcs have resumed their ancient hostilities and the Undead legions of Lord Bane have returned. The Sirians continue their quest for dominance, and the unquiet whispers speak of the Volturnans, a race even more evil than the Undead.
Now is the time for the races of Etheria to come together and engage in the final battle between Good and Evil. It is a time for Heroes!
