Greetings,

This is a fast turn-based strategy game with vikings theme. The goal is to defeat the saxon resistance and take all britain cities. You get reputation and gold when you defeat an enemy or take cities.

The controles are very simple and explained on the help screen.

I´ve used SFML for everything on this game. This is my second game with SFML, but the first one was never completed.

I´m planning on release the game during this week, but here are some preview screenshots:

Thanks

Doesn't run here, I'm afraid. I get a console window with no output. Let it sit for a while, no activity.

Windows 7 x64 Pro
ATi HD4870

May I complain about using 4shared as a host? I'd suggest Mediafire, it's generally regarded as the best free host - no wait times.

It worked here, no time for playing, but runs

Looks nice even though i did not understand it

It has a little help file in the folder (README) and also has some information on the controls on the help menu.

Besides that, you just need to explore the map and defeat any oposing enemy.

Thank you for testing, this is my first "real" complete game. I did what I could on design and interface but hey I´m a programmer!

That's why gradients exist

For an artist, it may be lame, but for a programmer it can do wonders!

Yes, by gradient i mean something more of course, but still..

If you want smooth graphics just download gimp, photoshop, whatever and play with layers, gradients , transparency, filters, smudge tools, you can really obtain something nice

Just a small tip about how easy it can be to make something appealing, not trying to look smart-ass
