BATTALION

BATTALION

BATTALION is in Beta version. 

BATTALION is a standalone solo game of surviving warring factions and treacherous wilderness. 

The world is organized in self governing Helms, usually with some Villages and Farmsteads supplying its Supply. In return, the Helm musters Warriors into Squads to form a Battalion representing  up to several hundred Warriors.

Swearing fealty to a Helm’s Liege is a shortcut to death on most days, but wandering alone is even more dangerous and no one pays you. The tools provided will let you play both as a Squad of Warriors and as a solitary main character.

The game’s combat mechanics focus on foot soldiers loosely organized, wielding swords and spears. Hand lobbed rudimentary explosives exist, but are very expensive. Mounts are prohibitively more expensive and usually reserved only for the Liege’s entourage and royal guard.

BATTALION is about your Warrior’s stories and the people they meet along the way, not about war. It is about the changes that occur in all of us, our sensitivity tested at each turn as we face the horrors.

BATTALION has been inspired by Danger Close, Solitary Defilement, Captain and Crew, Pendragon, Ironsworn, Mork Borg and Kal Arath.
