The Protectors of Etheria is a stand-alone mod of the game Warlords Battlecry 3 (i.e. it can be run without having the original game installed - 100% free full game). It is an improved RTS/RPG game with new campaigns, quests, terrain, units, items, heroes, modding features and more. Beta versions available for download!
One of the main aims for version 0.9 is to make each race feel unique to play.
Orcs, for example, is all about mobbing - clumping all of your units together and forming a huge mob of incredible power. While this allows the Orc player to hit very hard with a concentrated attack, it means they pretty much have to do this as the army is greatly weakened when split up. So the Orc player needs to be careful where they want to attack to maximise their strategical advantage.
This is capitalised by an ability known as "Overrun!" that is cast from their keep. When used, the Orc player targets a location and all units they own within that radius acquire a bunch of buffs while those units are near other owned units. Overrun! is a temporary effect and can be upgraded multiple times throughout the keep's tiers to offer more bonuses as the game progresses. All units under it's effects display a battle flag icon above them. So all players know when those Orcs mean business.

Gather boyz, wez go jihadin tonight!
Are the other races uniqueness going to also have an ability from their main building or would they be something else for example minotaurs get an upgrade buff?
The game has been amazing, i am so hyped for 0.9!
It'll vary from race to race. Dwarves, for example, can upgrade mines for higher income rates and to protect them from conversion until the upgrade is destroyed.
High Elves get an ability on their keep that substantially improves the income rate of a chosen resource type for a while.
We'll explain more in future images (when we remember to post them XD).
Hell just the response is enough for my blood, love the OG game when i was a kid and this mod makes me keep coming back over and over again. Love the work so much hype for next patch.
