This fantasy sequel is a good entry-level wargame.

The Good
    * Artificial intelligence packs a punch 
    * Addictive gameplay makes you dream in hexes 
    * Persistent units make you care about the sanctity of elven life.

The Bad
    * Tutorial is broken 
    * Buggy cutscenes kill your post-victory buzz.

Paradox Interactive announces Elven Legacy: Ranger, an upcoming expansion for Elven Legacy, the fantasy-themed wargame from Russian developer 1C: Ino-CO. The original Elven Legacy will be required to play the expansion, which is slated for release via digital distribution in the third quarter of this year for $9.99/€9.99. Elven Legacy: Ranger will include 16 new missions, three new heroes, five unique artifacts, and a dozen new spells, and here's a bit more:

    Ranger Cornelius possesses a holy spear that can apply special powers to his attacks. In Elven Legacy, each unit's operation could only be performed once per turn - one move and one attack. Ranger Cornelius can now use special attributes of his sacred spear without losing his turn. For example, he can activate a paralysing stroke and then throw the spear at the enemy. The enemy unit will not only suffer damage from the attack, but they will also be unable to move during the enemy’s turn.

    The order of completing the missions will now affect future events in the game. There will be only one final ending, but there are several ways to reach the finale.
