Warcraft: Orcs and Humans |
Strategy and Wargaming Game from Blizzard
Classic RTS set in a magical, fantasy universe. The action is set in the Kingdom of Azeroth and the basic premise is that humans and Orcs are at war. The human civilization is based on the feudal model. Units include peasants, clerics, knights and mages, whilst the Orcs have fantastic units such as peons (slaves), Troll axethrowers, Ogre-mages and death knights. Each unit type has construction requirements, capabilities, hit points and cost. Both magical and conventional weapons feature. Spells need to be researched.
The gameplay involves resource management, unit and building construction and tactical combat. New unit and spell types become available as new building types are constructed. There are two resources; gold and wood. You can choose from campaign mode (12 missions per side), custom games (player select perimeters) and two-player games (same computer or via serial or modem connection). A random map generator is incorporated. The game is played from an overhead perspective and employs 2D graphics.
