How long is the campaign?

Sovereignty: Crown of Kings is a turn-based fantasy strategy game for the PC. It offers a intuitive yet deep province system, allowing you to raise armies, conduct diplomacy, scout enemy battle lines, rally heroes to your banner, send them on quests, cast spells and go to war. In Sovereignty, the player chooses one of 35 Realms in a bid for dominance of the map. Play is conducted in a series of turns as a single player game. Each Realm has a unique culture and history, which translates directly into different play-styles. Each realm has its own mix of unit types and spell trees. Their diplomatic relations, economies and histories vary. A player may choose a new realm and experience the game in a very different way. Fantasy heroes, troops, races and spells complement the rise to power.

Thanks for all the info;this is looking real good.I was curious as to how long the individual turns last and how long does the overall campaign run.

Thanks

During peace time, turns can take less than a minute. You may wish to upgrade the economy of a province, purchase some units or cast a spell. Sometimes you will need to make some decisions based on Events occurring around your realm: new spells, patrons of the arts/science or trade route offers. If you're at war, turns can take considerably longer...especially when you're zooming into tactical battles. Each tactical battle can take 5-10 minutes.

Good Hunting!

Thanks Breca,

Does the campaign have a set time limit or does it last until someone 'Actually' wins... Are there different victory conditions.

As I've said; this looks real nice.

The game offers two main Victory Conditions: World Conquest and Campaign Missions.

World Conquest: is more of a sandbox. Choose a setting. Conquer 35%, 50, 75%, 100% of the map. Expand how you see fit. Win.

Campaign Missions: are hand-crafted missions, unique to each Realm, its culture, its history, and its secret desires. Objectives are complex, with all objectives needing to be met to win. Some realms are more belligerent and direct. They may expand toward specific targets, seek to destroy certain realms, raise units with certain medals, and so on. Some realms may have economic or magical objectives. Others may have more subtle (and difficult) missions, a "hidden hand behind the throne" role of propping up another realm.

For example, Crivia, a tiny but wealthy and influential city-state is buffered from other realms by the Boruvian Empire. While the Empire is seen as old and decadent, and while her former glory is fading, Boruvia remains the center of civilization, diplomacy and art in Sovereignty. Crivia uses this to advance its own ambitions, propping up the Boruvian Empire, while undermining Great Powers that would threaten the natural order of things...

Battles have turn limits. The Campaign is open-ended "when you win..."
