Swashbucklers: Legacy of Drake and WW1



Swashbucklers: Legacy of Drake
Swashbucklers: Legacy of Drake is a third person action game chronicling the adventures of a young and desperate daredevil Captain Abraham 'Nightingale' Grey. As Captain Nightingale, players lead his 'Warble' cutter through bloody waters of the Caribbean in search of famous Francis Drake's treasures.

Gamers can sail the seas of the Caribbean fending off naval attacks from the pirate scourge and English warships embroiled in the War of 1812. Players also can disembark the ship and dual, fight and shoot enemies one on one to capture apposing ships, towns and beach villages or use stealth to escape imprisonment, sabotage enemy fleets or gain valuable information on the elusive Francis Drake's treasures.





The game's narrative uses black humour and irony that follows the feel of the Caribbean in the 19th century when shipbuilding hadn't quite reached its pinnacle but the spirit of the age and the wonder of recent innovations in sailing technology inspired nautical heroes.







World War
World War I is an RTS based on the modified version of the Blitzkrieg engine created by Nival Interactive. Players will assume the role of commander leading the forces of Germany, Russia or Allies.
Gamers must be prepared to test their military leadership skills on the battlefields of Europe during one of the most costly wars of human life in mankind's history (1914-1918).

Players will have to use tactical skills and wit to win. But victory is not only a matter of tactics as players will have to organize the baseline properly, set priorities in targets and succeed in defensive knowledge.





Light cavalry will give players speed and manoeuvrability in offence, artillery - additional defence and fire support, armoured vehicles help provide suppressing fire against enemies and air support will give commanders a chance to attack an enemy in their own backyard.
