What happens if half of the game is flawed, but the other half is so good that wesometimes overlook these defects?

King Arthur II history and setting nails. Britannia are many threats: one is dead against the door of King Arthur, the round table is spread, the evil Fomorians are being removed like the Celtic legend, a disaster, and the Holy Grail is in shatters.Arthur’s son, is your job to make Britannia rights. They make allies (or enemies) to engage through diplomacy, in order to choose your own adventure-style missions, artifacts, crafts, and the level of your managers and your units. How to encourage you, if the game five chapters, you weave your way between the missions and adventure combat missions during the March Britannia forces. And the Army in March makes the sound of boots clacking nails and crunching as you travel from one point to another.
Adventure is where King Arthur II is the best. Often, the decisions we affect morality scale, which is located on two axes: right / bully and Christian / old faith (religion Druids). The decisions that we not only on each of these adventures, but your army bonuses available. If you will land your choices on the right side and the old faith, you can Fomorians against bonuses and access to the Court Seel powerful units, the popular fairy godmother, who are against the Fomorians, are earning. If you bully and Christian way, you get poisoned attacks and abilities with units such as Dark Angels. This is one of several aspects of the role-playing side, developers Neocore Games is correct, shows that only a little effort and thought, you can (to extend in a war game, no less), the typical system of moral good / evil.
Design characters, maps, weapons and units, hits the nerve of the Arthurian legend.The voice (which differs from the written text that appears in any text field) so that it matches. Hand-drawn art that appears with each screen adventure is great to see and sometimes feel more like you to read a book than a game. Units look hard, threatening, and when the Fomorians, demonic enough. Map of Britannia’s main town with castles, hills, forests and establishing and Hadrian’s Wall, the Romans built the structure to keep the barbarian hordes from their island-dotted lines.

Son leads the armies of King Arthur and powerful figures in the legend of Arthur, Morgana Le Fay as Sir Lancelot. Some of these characters have their own motivations, Le Fay is on her mentor, find Merlin. But there is help, and Britannia is to increase their power? Other characters in the play progresses, each of these armies up to three characters who have magical abilities and contribute to your efforts on the battlefield (most of them are quite powerful fighters as well). You can also equip the characters with a variety of objects such as amulets, armor, rings, and weapons that you combat bonuses, defense or magic.
Their progress forces work well. As you defeat enemies, not only to promote the characters, the promotion of their hit points, magic power, or the hand and give you the points on their skill trees can spend, but the units also progressed. Units you earn points with which you can increase your damage, defense, or their health (and others), and how they advance a level, they can increase the skills (including skills based on morals, how to win bonus against Fomorians).
These are a lot distractiv.Povestea is to reflect and sometimes even remember the great Arthurian legend by Mary Stewart (Crystal Cave). So, is a blow to the spirit of adventure when you go into battle. Struggles of Arthur are pretty, you can zoom in to see your company training individual soldiers. And as a result of a patch of 5February seems terrible frame rate problem encountered in the fight many have been created are. The frame rate running battle in 20 years the middle of the second, which actually make it playable. The units are very nicely animated, when a force of Crusaders throw the battlefield on horseback, it seems that the device run on the ground. The tactical game options to fall.

Winning strategy often comes from two tactics: overwhelm your enemy, and the control of power points. Each of the points of power gives your army a special power, like a Chain Lightning spell (they have a timer, but they are a powerful tool).Points hostile power given generally spells or units of eggs, it is important that this take down as quickly as possible. Or you can just mass army and the opposition club. You do not see much in the way of the accompanying AI tactics, although it is smart enough to try to take the first archers (though not always wise enough to take protective units of archers).
AI opponents with his understanding of land and the battle that ends a chapter fights, your opponent has two points of power within a citadel. You have only one way through which forces you to force through a small gate funnel. No enemy strengthen this position? It does not matter how many times you play the mission, sending your opponent a number of its units, rather than top to its position. But the game does not allow you to specify a number simulate battles, so if you are in combat you, you can make a substantial part of it to skip (although this is a good sign for a game called “war game” in the title) .
Morality makes a combat Sloga. Each unit has a rating of their morale, but no matter how much you play, soldiers often run away to the overpowering opponents. Even though most of their army was (and leaders) are destroyed forcing another fight. In most of these games, spirits play an important role; units would break if their leaders are dead and hostile forces are overwhelming. In King Arthur II, you must each unit on the battlefield before he makes every battle to defeat a grind. If enemies can not run, it makes sense to you, to beat them all. But moral system implies that the withdrawal would be a viable strategy for the enemy, and much better games (Star Wars Rebellion, for example) have even mechanics to prevent his retreat. Would be more fun if you come up with strategies to take back, instead of dealing with forces that had not prevented with an option as they should.
At least the game Magic system works well in battle. Each side has a shield that helps protect against attacks, so it’s a good idea, your ability to (increase either charm or spell power when you level up), these measures increase stamp.Animations for your destructive spells are fantastic, lightning struck the ground so that a charred mark and mix individual soldier into the air. For long fights (especially at the end of the chapter), it is important to save your magic for when you really need (and not just to remove the cannon fodder). Let your fireballs and lightning, but also to summon to the battle-field magic to hide archers (this can be a very useful spell) or to curse the enemy. And do not forget the spell power granted to use for points, they are not in the usual complement of magic and are located near the mini map.

Several patches have improved performance and stability of King Arthur II. Frame rates are still terrible (less than 10 frames per second), the main card, but as alreadymentioned, frame rates are not better now luptă.Jocul also did as much as before,though rarely occurring accidents still. This is the second game Paradox Interactivehas released in recent months (Sword of Stars II: Lords of Winter is still patched) tobe resolved with considerable technical problems, Paradox Hopefully you can better control these errors in the future.
King Arthur II: Role-playing Wargame provides a role-play, but flounders like a war game, the lack of depth tactic.Luptă is just not good, and that is sad that King Arthur IItells a fantastic story. It’s better than most RPGs have seen fully in those days, will take on different systems of morality, and it captures the spirit and wonderfullymysterious Arthurian legend.
