About This Game

Upheaval and chaos draw near the ancient Empire of the Raven.

In the realm of Eclisse, the ruling Estellion Empire is attacked by a scourge of embittered zealots from the swamp nation of Kaysan, a land erased from history by the Empire’s arrogance. While the Empire battles against nearly endless invaders and ruthless political schemes, its champions must fight to restore the raven banners... or succumb to the Scourge of Estellion.

Ravenmark: Scourge of Estellion is a turn-based wargame where strategic troop deployment is key to winning. Battles utilize a dynamic "we-go" system in which the actions of both allies and enemies play out simultaneously in a battle phase. Consequently, commanders in Ravenmark must think ahead, predicting enemy movements rather than simply reacting to them.

Character traits, active skills, and extensive unit statistics play a major role in Ravenmark and must be evaluated and utilized optimally. All of these are easily accessible via the Ravenmark Codex, where you can learn about various characters and unit types, as well as the deep lore the game is built upon.

In Ravenmark, you have the freedom to select your own formations. Effectively using the unique command systems is vital for securing victory! Will you arrange your pikemen into a single battle line for easier command and better frontage? Or will you maintain small, flexible formations? This is just one of the many choices you will face while battling through your numerous conflicts!
