Battle Brothers is a turn-based RPG set in a medieval world where you must lead a mercenary company and face many dangers. Adapt your strategy according to each type of enemy and lead your soldiers to victory, while avoiding losses.

The Middle Ages is a period of history that fascinates gamers thanks to its universe and legends. Many games set in this period have been released over the years, such as Battle Brothers, an RPG released on March 24, 2017, on Steam and developed by Overhype Studios

Taking place in a medieval universe, you lead a mercenary company in a procedurally generated world. You decide which enemies you want to face but also where you want to go. Accept various contracts to earn money, recruit troops, and conduct hostile actions, such as looting.

It is important to note that battles are turn-based, and you will need to equip your characters with the appropriate equipment. Examine their skills, and use the weapons that are at your disposal to win. In addition, each enemy has unique behavior and skills and you will have to apply the right strategy to minimize your losses.
