Our take on Battles of Norghan
The game combines a sports-manager-style roster structure with fantasy gladiator combat. Instead of treating matches as the whole experience, it makes recruitment, training, equipment, aging, and retirement part of the competitive campaign.
What is Battles of Norghan?
Hire mercenaries drawn from 22 fantasy races and classes, and oversee a gladiator clan seeking advancement into the highest division.
Fighters improve through monthly practice and participation in battles, developing core traits including physical power, intellect, health, and magical energy. They can also learn techniques for evasion, using shields, and fighting with two weapons. The roster can be outfitted with 200 pieces of equipment and 42 spells, covering armor, bows, weapons, enchanted staves, and other gear. Turn-based matches use tactical maps with different types of terrain and pit computer-run clans against clans controlled by other players. Gladiators grow older and ultimately leave the arena, so recruitment and seasonal planning remain ongoing responsibilities.
