First Class Article on a Classic Game
What a fantastic and well-written article on such a classic game. Dark Legions was a sleeper hit (at least, it was with me), and possibly the genre's best kept secret. It's a shame it didn't see more market penetration back in the day. In my opinion, this is the ultimate paper-rock-scissors type strategy game.
 Kudos to the author, and thank you for posting it. |

DLegions was a fantastic and underrated game. I owned it years ago and literally played it until the manual fell apart. Hell, even the copy protection system was moderately interesting.
This was IMO the evolutionary predecessor to games such as Defense of the Ancients, Leauge of Legends, Hero's of Newerth, ie MOBA games. Frankly the graphics and sound have aged very nicely and the atmosphere is still fantastic. I would have kicked a 12 year old off his 10 speed bike for a sequel. The author is right, if there were an online version of this game with some automatic matchmaking it would be VERY popular. Great game, too bad it had to compete for a niche with titles like C&C and WC. Also, how are you supposed to control the characters during tactical combat with the keyboard? Manual doesn't say. |

I wanted to play through all the single player quick setup scenarios. I decided to record my gameplay and upload the videos to Youtube:
