Etherlords

Etherlords combines turn-based strategy with a fantasy trading card game. Its innovative mechanics helped establish the foundations of many modern games in the genre. Enter the world of Etherlords as a champion of one of four powerful magical races: the Chaots, the Kinets, the Vitals, or the biomechanical Synthets. Build a powerful deck to summon troops and command them as they explore the world, conquer territories, battle enemy minions, and face ferocious creatures unleashed by disturbances in the flow of the Ether. Build armies, create spells, engage in diplomacy, and gather essential resources to support your forces. Upgrade and enhance your spell sets, then create powerful spell books for duels inspired by the best traditions of trading card games.

Etherlords casts you as a champion of one of four magical races competing for control of a fantasy world shaped by the flow of the Ether. Build armies and spell books, summon troops, conquer territories, gather resources, negotiate with rivals, and battle creatures and enemy forces in turn-based strategy gameplay and card-based duels.
