Warlord: Saga of the Storm (2001)

Warlord: Saga of the Storm is a fast paced game set in the fantasy world of the Lands of the Accord. You play the role of a powerful ruler, responsible for the defense of your lands and the destruction of all those who seek to destroy you. Your people are at war with your enemies, and you must crush your foes on the field of battle. There is no alternative.
