Ironholm: Reign of the Isles

Ironholm: Reign of the Isles is a real-time strategy game about conquering medieval islands. Expand your kingdom, raise armies, and capture new regions while commanding entire forces instead of individual soldiers. Plan your expansion, reinforce key positions, and choose the right moment to strike.

You begin with a small headquarters and limited resources. Every region you capture opens up new opportunities for growth. Build an economy capable of supporting a growing army, construct new structures, upgrade existing buildings, and prepare new regions for further expansion. The larger your kingdom becomes, the more fronts and strategic positions demand your attention.

Instead of manually controlling every individual soldier, you command entire armies across a map divided into regions. Send troops to different fronts, reinforce threatened positions, capture enemy territory, and concentrate your forces where they can break through the enemy's defenses.

The sea is also part of your strategy. Build a Lighthouse and you can send naval landings by ship, putting fresh troops ashore in the coastal regions of your choice.

In the Tavern you strike dark deals. Hire mercenaries, pay bandit chiefs to raid an enemy lord, or order a hooded stranger to destroy an enemy building.
