Based off of an alternative Past, this app is truly engaging with a plot following the civil war, a massive plague, and then another civil war of sorts (which is the game). With an intriguing story, the game play is uncontrollably addictive and is completely free to play. In fact, this game has remained on my for the 30 day duration required to receive a massive amount of FREE GOLD, an accomplishment all in itself. Most games on the Strategy Tab for the Apple Store are simply big companies paying Apple to be featured and while likely fun, are very different from ACTUAL STRATEGY games. this app wipes those games' *ss with a silken handkerchief. With Map gameplay, First Person Shooter Elements, the ability to be an Overlord Commanding one's troops, leveling up and unlocking units, and most importantly, a Battle Gameplay that's realistic and actually takes ducking, cover, range, ammunition, weapons, speed, graphics, and the highly sought after PAUSE BUTTON into consideration when being played.
10/10; few games like this exist.

Tip: If you keep losing Skirmish Battles, just collect the Silver and Gold every few hours and do the Campaign levels for a little while until your units level up and can crush the enemy.
