Really massive multiplayer - Anvil Empires announcement

The company Siege Camp, known for its multiplayer game about the wars of the 20th century Foxhole, presented its next project. It has a completely different theme - medieval battles, where each unit is under the control of one or another gamer. The developers promise up to a thousand connections on one location, that is to fight really big. Let's find out what else we know about this announcement.

It is essentially a mixture of strategy, tactics and RPG, with each character under the control of a living person. Virtual citizens build their villages and fortresses, gather resources, hunt, trade, participate in wars and supply supplies to the battlefields. PvP battles are available anywhere, even in cities - there are no restrictions. The action unfolds on the continent of Calligo, for the power of which compete with several factions. R2 engine allows you to organize battles with the participation of thousands of warriors - this is the main feature of the project, allocated by the developers.

Siege Camp staff honestly admit that their tasks are complex, so there is no clear development plan. All stages of development will be held with the participation of the public, which will soon start pre-alpha, which will invite ordinary users. The audience will test whether it is convenient, for example, to control all the stages of construction of buildings or arrangement of the camp with the production of siege machines. Perhaps some points should be simplified, as it was with the company's previous game. In any case, it is planned to make the early version of the novelty free of charge - and anyone can join the testing.
