Russ vs Horde is a medieval real-time strategy (RTS) game about capturing castles and conquering lands. Raise an army, lead it from castle to castle, outnumber and outmaneuver the enemy, and fly your banners over every fortress on the map.

GAME FEATURES
• Real-time castle battles with simple swipe controls
• A 100-level story campaign for four unique factions
• Endless Horde survival mode with War Council choices
• Lands: a grand strategy map of provinces, marches and buildings
• PvP raids on real players, leagues and revenge
• Terrain, altars and unit counters that reward smart tactics

HOW BATTLES WORK
Every castle trains its own soldiers — their number is shown under the walls. Swipe from your castle to an enemy one and your troops storm it. Hold a castle and drag through several of yours to attack from all of them at once. Double-tap to upgrade a castle: the higher the fortress level, the faster it produces troops. Take neutral castles before your rival does — every new stronghold brings victory closer.
• Infantry, archers and cavalry: each troop type has its strengths and weaknesses, and each castle trains its own type. Send infantry against cavalry castles and cavalry against archers.
• Terrain decides battles: forests empower infantry, the steppe empowers cavalry, archers hit harder in swamps, mountains slow everyone down, while hills and foggy lowlands weaken your attack. Some deadly lands wipe out any troops that cross them.
• Altars of infantry, archers and cavalry boost all your units of that type across the map, and identical altars stack.
A strategy and tactics game with no build timers in battle: a battle takes a few minutes, and victory comes from smart decisions, not from waiting.

FOUR FACTIONS AND A 100-LEVEL STORY CAMPAIGN
Each faction has its own army, its own elite troop type and its own 25-battle campaign with a story chapter before every fight.
• Highman — the Heistrom Empire, people of the plains, disciplined heavy infantry and veteran spearmen.
• Marshman — born archers from the misty swamps.
• Nomads — the Horde of the steppe, born in the saddle, with unstoppable cavalry.
• Nav — an undead host rising from burial mounds in blue funeral fire, straight from Slavic legends.

THE ENDLESS HORDE
The Horde never stops coming. How long will your defense hold? Between waves the War Council gathers and you choose how to meet the next assault: militia, a banner, the watch, a palisade, a taxman, a raid on the weakest Horde fort or a plague on every Horde fort. No two runs are the same. Complete the daily task, earn renown, strengthen the Horde retinue with permanent upgrades and climb the weekly leaderboard for rewards.

LANDS: GRAND STRATEGY
For players who think beyond a single battle. Scout neighboring provinces — steppe, forest, hills, mountains, swamps and wastelands — send marches and expand your holdings. Your lands earn coins and timbe
