Blade Vale
Blade Vale
Pick your teams, call your friends, and fight in the pit. Every empty seat is taken by a fighter of the vale — sword, bow, or horse. Last team standing wins.
Roam the vale with your warband. Enemy bands wander the map — pick your fights, flee the ones you can't win, and clash in pitched battles where reinforcements march in wave after wave. Win, recruit, and march on.
