Combat sees players deploying up to eight units at once on hex-based maps. Each unit has their own class and skills, with players able to hire, equip and train their mercenaries. Contracts and story events will have multiple resolution options and outcomes, with the game also planned to support modding including a map editor, spell editor, and modifiable data files.
