Our take on Highland Warriors
The focus on real-time battles, economic management, diplomacy, and unit progression creates a broad command workload. Players seeking a tightly focused combat game give up that wider strategic scope, while campaign variety takes precedence over a single compact scenario.
What is Highland Warriors?
Set during the Scottish struggle against English control in the era of William Wallace and Robert the Bruce, Highland Warriors is a 3D real-time strategy game.
It includes four nations with distinct units, skills, knowledge, and economic, diplomatic, and military strengths. Four historical campaigns contain more than 30 missions. The economic system uses five resources, open trade, and a master-craftsman system. Combat units can gain experience, levels, upgrades, and special abilities. Missions feature changing seasons, while mountain castles and a freely rotatable camera add tactical options. The game also includes an editor, though its specific functions are not detailed.
