In the early half of the 14th century, a quarrel with England over the succession to the French throne escalated into what history would call the Hundred Years' War. This summer, BLADESTORM: THE HUNDRED YEARS' WAR will bring to life the intensity and drama of a war-torn Medieval Europe with a cast of legendary characters, including Joan of Arc and Edward the Black Prince.
Utilizing a new game engine attainable only through the power of next generation hardware, BLADESTORM: THE HUNDRED YEARS' WAR will recreate the fierce clashes between the armies of England and France at an unprecedented scale, where every soldier reacts individually to his immediate surroundings. Players will assume the role of a mercenary leader and strategically command, in real-time, a wide range of troops including infantry, archers, cavalry, and cannoniers.

GAMEPLAY HINTS

Easy experience

In your very first contract, you will have a tutorial on how to use swords, horses and bows. When it tells you to use the Bowmen, do not take control of them. Instead, use the Swordsmen to fight the groups of people. After fighting for about a minute, you should gain a level. You can do this as long as desired to better your men, making the beginning of the game easier. You can switch to the Horsemen to also increase their levels. When you feel you have their levels high enough, switch to the Bowmen to finish the tutorial.
