| | | help, tryin to figur out name of game
There was this rts/rpg game I played the demo for a few years ago. I think it had the word Fantasy in the name. It allowed you to build up you castle and build buildings around it. You could hire different types of units, but you didnt give them direct orders. You placed bounties on monsters and stuff heads. The graphics were Starcraft era. You could build a blacksmith, and you units could go upgrade themselves. They would gain xp everytime they killed something. Anybody know what this game is? I wanna look it up.

| | | I had this demo... floppy and all... bit like everything you'd ever seen, and finally I figured out it was called Wizardry! Now chief Fable, did THAT ever become anything? |

As for a Majesty 2, it was finally released about 18 months after the original--and proved to be nothing more than an expansion pack, with a few new professions to work for you. It was released as "the Northern Expansion" of Majesty, by Infogrammes. The original was published by Microprose, in the sad, waning days of its empire.

mind you, fighting off a horde of minotaurs who had almost entirely destroyed my base with a gang of three wizened low-level wizards was a high point in the game.
